1.) Registration, First $100, and Y-Assist Applications MUST be submitted by next Wednesday, September 10: If you've misplaced the forms, you can find everything you need here: http://saccentraldelegation.blogspot.com/p/forms-and-downloads.html
2.) Payments, continued: All delegates are required to submit the initial $100 payment, regardless of whether a Y-Assist application is submitted. If this amount presents a financial hardship for your family, please contact Christiana or Mia ASAP to arrange for a payment schedule. To guarantee your spot in the delegation, you need to have provided your $100 initial payment or have discussed extenuating circumstances with Christiana or Mia by September 10.
3.) Bill Ideas:
We had a great first discussion about bill ideas yesterday! If you
missed the meeting, or want to read up on some more research tips and
tricks, check out this document. It's long, but it's meant as a
reference guide. http://goo.gl/MPiO4E
4.) "What Should I Bring To Meetings?" Bill Writing Edition: You don't need much at Y&G meetings, but we ask that you bring your calendar or planner, a notebook/paper, and a pen to each meeting. During the next few weeks as we're discussing legislation and researching ideas, you are encouraged to bring a lap top or tablet, if you have one (obviously, it's not required).

6.) Fall Coalition Camping Trip, Sept 26-28: Those of you who'd like to join us for our annual trip to Bear Valley Y Camp in the High Sierra. This is a chance to get to know each other and make new friends from our sister delegation based in El Dorado Hills. This trip requires is not mandatory and requires an additional $60 payment not covered by the standard program fees. More information is coming soon.
7.) Legislative Research Scavenger Hunt: Not mandatory - but a few quick exercises to get you familiar with the research process and looking at California laws and legislation. The attached document will probably help you!
Question 1: You've read a terrible article about a kid whose parents never gave him enough food or let him go to the doctor or even let him leave the house. You are incensed! There should be a law against that sort of thing. In fact, this will be the basis of your bill this year. But, is there a law that covers this already? Keep track of your research process!
Question 2: During the past summer, with school out and lazy days abounding, you really made the most of out Netflix. The last film you watched before returning to school was "Black Fish" a documentary about the effects of captivity on orcas. You were so moved by the film that you decide to write legislation banning keeping orcas in captivity. Where in California law might such a law best fit? Keep track of your research process!
There might be prizes for those who complete the questions and email Christiana before Tuesday, Sept 9 at midnight.
