Hi Youth Committee!


Thanks to those of you who were able to come out tonight! For those of you who weren't, below are the minutes from today's meeting. The most important thing for those of you who still would like to be involved this semester is the MANDATORY FAP (First aid and Preparedness) training next Thursday, February 24th from 7-9p.m. We'll meet in front of Dwinelle and find a room together. You must be trained in order to come out to the schools and work with kids on FAP, a.k.a. FAP Days. You don't have to come if you've already done the training, but you're definitely welcome to if you have the time. Hopefully that time works out for more people.  Secondly, if you didn't come today and want to participate in this semester's FAP Days, please let us know what times you are available on Fridays.

If you want be involved but can't make the training time, please let me know! We can try to set up a different time for you. Otherwise, you can still be involved with Youth Committee in other ways. Feel free to talk to me or Ellen (echung777@gmail.com) about it.

One thing we forgot to mention is that Youth Committee will be having a mini retreat in early March, so look out for that.


Thank youuuuuu! Have a great 3-day weekend.
