Since its founding in 1953, OASL has been offering leadership development programming to students across the state of Ohio. As our mission states, we are “dedicated to the teaching of leadership skills, organizational skills, and people skills valuable to the members and officers of all student organizations.” OASL empowers students to discover their passion and develop their capacity for leadership for one common goal: to create positive change in our Ohio schools & communities.
For the past 71 summers, Summer Workshop has been OASL’s signature and premier experience, described by many as life-changing and the highlight of their summer. Through experiential learning activities, this 5 day, 4 night summer camp experience helps students develop personal and group leadership skills, set and achieve worthy goals, pursue challenges, and take ownership for responsibilities. Following summer workshops, students return to their schools & communities with knowledge, conviction, and understanding which will empower them to positively impact all they encounter.
