At the age of 18, away from their homes, families and friends these young individuals undergo a demanding, inspiring journey, revealing the core of who they are, who they want to be.    Website: http://www.beneathhelmet.com/

      Thank you for asking – we are investigating but our desire was to get RSVPs and payment to be able to gauge seating and refreshments requirements. If you just want to pay at the door, there is no need to use the form above.
