Chapter Events are organized by local volunteers and are often supported by DiscoveryBound staff. Local Chapters offer a variety of events for families, teens, 20s-30s and adults or a combination of these groups.
What To expect
Inspiration and friendships are at the heart of local DiscoveryBound Outreach Chapter Events. Activities have included:
- Family day at the beach
- Adult dinners and discussions
- Ultimate Frisbee
- Operation Testimony Meeting (OTM) at area Christian Science church
- Hymn sing / Christmas caroling
- Service project
They often help promote, chaperone and fund raise for youth participation at DiscoveryBound Regional Weekends, National Events, as well as financially support attendance at Christian Science summer camps.

The smiles truly shone with love and joy as the teens enjoyed one another's company and, for some, got over fears of making new friends.
