NOJ Tips? Taking Youth Group

[Sarah & Brian Waterbury]

We are taking our Youth Group to WDW for NoJ this year and need tips to make it fun! Give me any advice you can to help me make it awesome for us! This is our first year going and all of us are newbies. Help us!

I have gone to NOJ the past two years. However, it was just me and my mom, so I don't know how helpful my tips will be for a group.
I don't know how much you know about NoJ, but the different concerts take place at the same time. If the group is all going to stay together, then you will have to decide which shows you want to go to and which ones you don't.
If you have a large group, and are planning on not staying for the whole concert, try to stand toward the back. It is really frustrating when a huge group leaves in the middle of a song, and blocks you from seeing.
If you are planning on splitting up, I would suggest getting a meeting area, and planning on meeting up at a certain time.

Another thing I would recommend is to make sure that your youth group is extra courtesy. NoJ is know among the Cast members as the worst days to work, and that is mainly because of how some youth groups act. I'm not saying your youth group will act that way, it just makes me really sad that youth groups have that reputation during NoJ.

If you have any other questions, let me know and I will try to help you the best I can!

I strongly believe that is why they no longer host Grad Nites. One year when we were there, Peter Pan's Flight was damaged. When the children are tied to the mast, some kid had kicked the oldest brother loose and he was lying with his head against the steering wheel. It's a shame how inconsiderate kids can be. That's one of the reasons we're not splitting up, at least, not without an adult.
