ACRA Forming Youth Advisory Council
The Amador County Recreation Agency is forming a youth recreational
council. The council is being formed from the youth of our local high school
and junior high school populations. According to Executive Director
Tracey Towner Yep her hope is that the council’s formation will lead to a few
special events for the youth, planned and implemented by the youth. The first
meeting will be Monday April 16th at the American Legion Hall. At that
meeting introductions, a big group game, a planning exercise, team building,
choosing an event to start work on will be accomplished.
Towner yep states that after the first
successful event is planned and completed then another event will be planned and
implemented. The council participation is strictly voluntary, and will most
likely be driven by the events that are chosen by the group. Towner Yep states
that “I am excited, and
looking forward to working with one of the county's most creative resources,
our youth. Can't Wait! This is going to
be fun, interesting and educational.” If you are interested in participating in
this council contact the recreation agency at 257-1764
