Young Life is active in 2 high schools (Weddington & Marvin Ridge) in the county. Young Life is making a difference in kids' lives. Here's an example of how Young Life reaches kids: Zack regularly attends tennis practice at the high school where he is a Young Life leader. At first, Zack did not know the young men on the tennis team, but after weeks of watching practice he began to get to know who they were and exchanged a few short conversations with some of the players. One day, one of the players approached Zack. "You come to watch us practice a lot don't you?" the young man asked Zack. "Yes, I do," Zack said. "That's cool," the young man said. "No one does that."
