The Winter Youth Rally commences each year on the Feast of St. Stephen on December 27. All Orthodox teens in the Metropolis of Atlanta involved in their local parish's GOYA and Church School program are invited to Atlanta, GA each December to compete in tournaments representing their church community. 

We offer Volleyball, Basketball and Bible Bowl Tournaments for GOYANs in 7th-12th grades. Each evening several rounds of Bible Bowl are also offered for teens to grow in their faith and knowledge of Holy Scripture. Only registered GOYANs are allowed to play on WInter Youth Rally team and allowed into the Hotel.
