BREVARD COUNTY • MELBOURNE, FLORIDA – Eastern Florida State College will host the upcoming Summit of Seven Boys and Men Conference with about 1,000 people expected for an event that provides mentors and role models for youth.

The 27th annual conference will be held June 7-8 on the college’s Melbourne campus, and end with a June 9 service at Mount Moriah Missionary Baptist Church in Palm Bay.

The summit is the largest gathering of its kind in Brevard County and among the largest in Central Florida.

It features motivational speakers and workshops on subjects such as education, law enforcement, personal ethics
and teamwork.

“Today’s youth need guidance more than ever as they confront difficult obstacles that can prevent them from
leading productive lives,” said organizer Moses L. Harvin Sr.

“The summit shows them they have many great opportunities, can be very successful and rely on caring adults who are willing to help them chart the right course in life.”
