About Us
The YMCA Blue Ridge Jr. High Christian Values Conference brings together young people (rising 7th, 8th and 9th graders) from across the country. The conference is held at the YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly in Black Mountain, North Carolina. The setting, with its beautiful view of the Blue Ridge Mountains, reminds us all of God's Handiwork.
