Commissioning Mass, Banquet & New Year’s Eve Dance
Dress to impress as conference is ended and the New Year is started with the Commissioning Mass, Banquet and New Year’s Eve Dance (celebrated in every time zone). The Mass brings in the new national team as they assume their position for the upcoming year and allows us to celebrate Mass to bring in the New Year. It is followed by an exquisite dinner and concludes with dancing the night away. This formal evening is the perfect way to celebrate the conclusion of a great conference and a great New Year!
The National Catholic Student Coalition presents up to three awards at the annual leadership conference to deserving students and campus ministers. Nomination forms for the 2010 NCSC Awards are now available.

Pennies for Peace
Each conference, the four regions face off in a penny war with all proceeds benefiting a special cause relating to the conference theme.
How to Collect Pennies
You may fundraise the money in any number of ways, including:
- Placing a jug outside of mass
- Car wash
- Bake sale
- Asking friends, family for contributions
- Hosting competitions between different masses at your local campus ministry
- Be creative!
How the Contest Works
Pennies = Positive Points for your region. Dollars or other coins = Negative Points for other regions! If you collect pennies on campus prior to conference, you may convert it to a check for easy travel. This check will be counted as “pennies.” Please make checks out to the NCSC.
