As the father of two strong young women, now in their early 30s as well as a son in his mid 20s, I feel the need to start out by saying this post is not to take anything away from young women in our society. As documented in many venues and by many experts, many young people -- especially young men -- are struggling in our society.
It is in the vital interest of everyone in America for us to have strong young men and strong young women who will lead us into the future.
If you are a young person who would like to join with a diverse group of people from various walks to life, we want you to join us for a day of connection! We are all striving to build stronger in-person connections with others outside our regular bubbles. We know that money can be tight for students, so we are offering half-price tickets to Mingle Day 2025, Saturday, October 25, in Decatur GA.
Registration information is here.
Note: If you are a student and not able to afford the ticket price, please contact us. We have a limited number of scholarships available. Contact
