2025-2026 leadership

We are so excited that you want to explore Wesley leadership! There are some shared expectations for Wesley leadership. Council will present leadership with a covenant that all members of leadership will be expected to sign and uphold. There will be 2 to 4 area meetings per month (depending on your area) to meet with your team and make sure things in your area are running smoothly. Before school starts (roughly August 11th- August 14th) there will be a Welcome Week Work Day for all of council and leadership to get ready for the year ahead. 

Leadership Interviews are April 21st-24th. Katie Dalton will contact you to set up an interview time after you apply.
