Happy Winter Holidays!
Most of the information in this email is a repeat of last week's bulletin - but we want to make sure you've read it. The most important thing on your to-do list, if you haven't done it already, is to make sure you have made your final program payment. All Dylan wants for Christmas is on-time payments. Don't make advisors spend their winter break sending you reminders!
As we pause our delegation meetings for the next couple of weeks for some needed R&R, the advising team wants to wish all of our delegates and their families a wonderful winter break and a joyous New Year. We're so grateful that each and every one of you are a part of our program. 2017 will bring great things with our final two conferences of the year.
There will be no bulletin on Dec 26 - make sure you've read this one and act on its information as required - especially when it comes to noting events like mandatory pre-conference meetings and bill boxes work (for SacC delegates).
1.) Final payments were due December 14 (SacCentral) and 15 (El Dorado): If you have made your final payment, thank you! Your prompt payment is appreciated as we near the end of the budgetary year and the holiday rush reduces our time to send payment reminders. Everyone should have received an email confirming their final balance. If you have a question about your balance, email Dylan ASAP at dotarrow@calymca.org. You can pay online here or over the phone to the YMCA Front Desk at 916-452-9622. You can also drop a check off at the Sacramento Central YMCA (2021 W Street, Sacramento, 95818) during regular business hours, in an envelope attention to Dylan O'Tarrow. Delegates not on an approved extended payment plan must clear their balances by December 31.
2.) Leadership Applicant Notice: are you a candidate for eleced office? Did you apply for an appointed position or program area? Make sure you review the draft conference schedule when it comes out in January for mandatory meetings. And make sure you check your email daily for updates from program staff about interview times and details. It is YOUR responsibility to make sure you show up prepared and on-time for your interviews!
2.) MUN Secretariat Applications: The Secretariat oversee and provide leadership to the California YMCA Model United Nations program participants (who are wee small adorable middle school students). For more information on MUN and the Secretariat program, click here. This is great for delegates who like teaching, mentoring, and aiding the leadership development of wee small adorable middle school students and who are responsible and like travel. Applications are still available for non-priority interviews.
3.) Speaker's Bureau: Are you a returning Y&G Delegate? Do you annoy people with your limitless love for our program? Wish you could talk to more people about Y&G? Now's your chance! Apply to the speaker's bureau via Reggo. Questions? Contact Derek or Christiana.
4.) T&EII Schedule: Our next conference will start earlier than the first. We will likely depart between 10-11am on Saturday, January 14. Our return times should remain the same.
