The Blue Ridge Journal

The Blue Ridge Journal The page for the media program of the YMCA Youth Conference on National Affairs at YMCA Blue Ridge Assembly in Black Mountain, North Carolina.

C**A is a national program intended to help the nation's youth learn more about the U.S. democratic form of government. The Blue Ridge Journal is the name given to all of the media products of that conference - a newspaper, blog, page, twitter and You Tube channel. Like the conference it reports about, The Blue Ridge Journal is student led.
