Round Table Update
I want to thank everyone who came to our Round Table discussion last week. I think we had about 20 participants to discuss leadership, volunteerism, and youth involvement. It was a great discussion with the ultimate goal of deciding on an action item for the Volunteer and Leadership Future Squads to work on. We needed something tangible (like a Community Garden or Farmer’s Market). After some awesome brainstorming, it was decided to form a youth council. I don’t have all of the specifics (Victoria gathered all of the sheets from that night and I’m sure will be adding an entry here soon) but the Youth Council will plan activities for kids to participate in.
Again, thanks to everyone who participated in the Round Table discussion. It was a very energizing night!

Yes! I will be adding information regarding the Roundtable as soon as I return…I am in the midst of a phenomenal confernce on Service Learning and have a ton of ideas that we can use as well as resources to get the thing off the ground. I haven’t finished transposing from the roundtable, but once I return, I will get that finished and posted! Hoping to gain momentum from the Dodgeball tourney and the Youth Service Day Community Garden Project to get more youth interested! Should be great!
