Review for Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership of Colorado (HOBY Colorado), Lakewood, CO, USA
I attended HOBY in 2018 and loved every second of it. HOBY was such an influential time in my life, and taught me more than I thought could be learned in 4 days. Going in, I was a fairly shy student who, despite being confident, didn’t know how to put myself “out there” and get to know others. Within the first few hours of being at HOBY, I felt so incredibly comfortable and supported, which helped me crack my shell. My experience at HOBY left me with lifelong lessons, friends, passions, and memories, and I couldn’t be more grateful to have had the opportunity to attend this seminar. HOBY taught me the importance of leadership, community, service, understanding privilege, and so much more. This experience was truly life-changing, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything.
