I am going on CLTC 3 2025 this summer, and I am SO EXCITED. Recently, I’ve found myself upset that it’s still so far away (exactly 100 days from now, the day I’m writing this!), but here are 5 ways to stay hyped and not go insane while waiting.

1. Text in the Group Chat: Luckily, my CLTC 3 coordinators made our group chat a while ago, so we’ve been able to chat with other attendees on it or just snap with each other, pretty much daily!‍

2. Follow Everyone’s Instagrams: Through the group chat, you’re able to see everyone’s names, so everyone is able to follow each other’s instagrams to see what they look like and see what BBYO stuff they’re up to.

3. Stalk BBYO Insider: If you scroll down to past summers on the BBYO Insider Instagram, you can see pictures from CLTC and get a sneak preview of things you might be doing, which is super fun to see and think about!

4. Start Planning Outfits: While this may not appeal to everyone, or you just don’t care, I’m a huge plan-ahead person. I love thinking about details in advance, because why not? Planning out cute outfits I want to take to CLTC is a way for me to really picture myself there and, of course, get super excited.

5. Talk to Your Older Friends: If you have older friends who went on CLTC in past summers, asking them about their experiences and favorite memories from it is super fun and exciting to hear about!

PS: If you’re reading this and you’re going on CLTC 3 this summer, I can’t wait to meet you!
