Every year, Leaders in Training travel to the USA for the Friendship Tour. This year, the Friendship Tour is adding Canada! We will be visiting Seattle, WA from April 5th to 10th, and Vancouver, BC from April 11th to 16th! We hope to see you and your friends along the way!
During their two-week stretch, 14 LITs (plus three graduates of the program joining as staff) will visit with hundreds of youth and adults at schools, community centers, private homes, universities, and even host a formal press conference in Vancouver! These and other discussions will focus on who the LITs are, what they have found in Ultimate Peace, and why they are visiting North America.
Follow along on our Facebook Page for introductions to the team, our own UP tournament hosted in Seattle, parties, presentations, and more! The LITS will be playing in Ultimate Peace’s very own Mixed Gender and a Split Gender Tournaments, as well as holding an AMAZING fundraiser & celebration in Seattle.
Vancouver is just as slammed with panels, presentations, festivities, and maybe some biking along the seawall. We’re hosting 2 events – a “Fancy but Frisbee” event for the community, and a private gala!
See some of the highlights on our schedule below! How can you help? PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD! Send these FB events & flyers to family and friends – invite people directly on Facebook. Getting people to our events is a HUGE help!

Ultimate Peace is a volunteer led organization funded primarily by donations. In addition to the CITs sharing their stories and raising awareness about Ultimate Peace, the Friendship Tour is an opportunity for donors and potential donors to meet face to face with these young leaders.
The Youth Leadership page has more information on the CIT program and the tour. If you have questions, or suggestions and support, please get in contact.
