    • Pre-Teens, ages 10-12
    • Junir (ages 13-15)
    • Teens, ages 16-19; The team that wins this division at each PLC will compete among the winners of the other dioceses at the Archdiocesan festival (in odd-numbered years, at the Archdiocese Convention; in even-numbered years, at the Midsummer Meetings).
    • Adults, age 20 and older
  • Creative Festivals: children from pre-school through high school submit entries in one or more of the follow categories:
    • Arts
    • Photography
    • Poetry
    • Video/Multi-media
    • Writing
  • Oratorical Festival: Teens in each parish deliver a speech based on the conference theme, in two divisions:
    • Junior, ages 13-15
    • Senior, ages 16-19; the orator that wins this division at each PLC will compete among the winners of the other dioceses at the Archdiocesan festival (in odd-numbered years, at the Archdiocese Convention; in even-numbered years, at the Midsummer Meetings).
