SOMK

SOMK is a youth-directed activity sponsored by OMK. This program is designed for military and non-military youths in grades 7-12, and teaches how to use media, technology, citizenship and public speaking skills to advocate for military connected youths affected by the global war on terrorism. Participants gain leadership, research, organization, and public speaking skills while raising community awareness.

Training sessions are scheduled throughout the year. SOMK youths are invited to plan or attend events for military children throughout Idaho. For more information, contact OMK.

Yellow Ribbon Support

Yellow Ribbon events are held in the Boise and Caldwell areas. Participating youths ages 6-15 years learn about photography, robotics, and arts and crafts while adults attend Sustainment events. For more information, contact OMK.

Emmett OMK Community Club

A group of teens from Emmett, Idaho, have formed a 4-H OMK community club to support military families. Military teens are welcomed in this club. The teens socialize and train together to support other OMK activities as counselors, and helped sponsor a volunteer appreciation barbecue last August. For more information, contact OMK.
