2010 - 2011 Getting Ready to Roll!

Hey out there!

Sorry for the lack of updates. The blog will be quiet no more! Things are just getting underway to kick off the 2010 - 2011 school year. At least 8 Regina and Area high schools will be participating in the network this year.  It is shaping up to be another exciting year!

2010 YES Network Youth Leadership Forum - October 19th and 20th
The Youth Leadership Forum will be kicked off on Tuesday, October 19th at 7:00 pm with an evening talk by environmental activist David Noble. This event will be taking place in Salon 1 at Queensbury Downs Convention Centre. It is going to be a great night. Make sure to mark it on your calendar!

Day 2 of the event will be the Youth Leadership Forum. This year we are going to be running it from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm at Queensbury Convention Centre. The day is going to be broken into two parts. The morning will be networking and leadership training sessions. ESCI 302 (Environmental Education class) from the University of Regina will be out to help lead sessions. The Youth Leadership Forum will be open to high school environmental clubs from Regina and area. Registration is required. Email me if you need some more information or a registration form.

That afternoon session is going to be something never done before in Regina! David Noble will be facilitating an afternoon open space dialogue session with forum participants and special guests. There will be no pre determined agenda or programs. The agenda for the afternoon will come from the floor during the session. The participants get to choose the topics and the format. It is going to be a great opportunity talk about the issues that are most important to YOU!

More information will be following in the coming weeks! Stay tuned!
