The Rome-Floyd County Commission on Children and Youth will team up with its community partners to present the 2026 Floyd County Teen Maze to local high school freshmen this Wednesday and Thursday, September 2nd and 3rd at Georgia Highlands College.
Teen Maze provides an opportunity for youth to experience real life events and scenarios involving peer pressure, sexual activity, drugs and alcohol, and more, but without real life consequences.
Jennifer Jolly, Executive Director, says that there will be interactive stations, games, and simulations for the students, who will also have opportunities to engage with professionals about possible consequences of their decisions.
It takes an army of volunteers to make the Teen Maze possible, attests Jolly, who adds that these volunteers pair information and learning with memorable moments.
An estimated 185-190 daily volunteers will assist with the Teen Maze, which will be traversed by some 1,450-1,500 ninth graders over its two-day run.
