DelQuest is a fun-filled, three-day session that every leader of tomorrow needs to attend. This is an exciting and insightful program in which selected participants will receive hands-on leadership training. This year’s session is scheduled for November 15-17, 2023.
The Del City Chamber of Commerce in conjunction with the City of Del City offers DelQuest annually in the fall. Our students are able to take advantage of all they experience and apply it to the rest of this school year and, more importantly, into their senior year of high school and beyond.
They will tour civic and business facilities and interact with elected officials to solve community-wide issues. DelQuest provides the tools and information that every leader needs to reach success!
An application and selection process is used to choose twenty high school juniors from public, private and home schools in Del City, Oklahoma. DelQuest has seen hundreds of students graduate the program which covers an intense three days with local business leaders learning about the internal operations of local businesses and local government. The students encounter thought-provoking, team-building exercises, motivational speakers, and interaction with leaders of the community which will help them to grow as an individual and become a better leader themselves. With so much negativity surrounding our young people, this program will re-establish their confidence in the future, and in themselves, as they prepare to lead the way as the leaders of tomorrow. The November program will begin in early mornings and involve activities into the evening hours. We will not have overnight stays. The Mentor Dinner will be held on a separate evening in October to kick off the season, and ensure better connections between our students and the community leaders that are so appreciated!

If you want to be part of this exclusive group you will need to submit your application by September 29, 2023.
