The youth will

bring their families and enjoy activities such as an awards ceremony,

karaoke contests, a "Double Dutch" jump-rope challenge, dance

competitions, rides, giant slides, plus food and music.

This summer,

Fulton County youth ages 14 to 21 participated in three sessions of employment

and mentorship opportunities, Life Skills sessions and Employment Readiness

workshops funded by the Fulton County Board of Commissioners and the Georgia

Department of Labor.

The third session,

made possible by funds from the Georgia Department of Labor, allowed jobs

to be created for 110 youth, adding to those in the County's first two

sessions. The third session ends August 8.
