Y&G CapCo Combined Bulletin #21: The End (for now)

This will be the final bulletin for the 2016-2017 program year and my final bulletin as the Lead Advisor for both delegations. It has been a privilege to serve all of our delegates and their families this year. You may hear from me again on other Coalition news and opportunities, but as far as bulletins go, you're free!

Here are just a few things to wrap up the year:

1.) Due to popular demand, Banquet ticket sales are extended through 12 noon tomorrow, Feb 28. Over 150 people will be there on Thursday. Will you?

2.) Parent Program Evaluations: We depend on feedback to improve our program each year. Please take a moment to provide your thoughts on this year.

3.) Delegate Program Evaluations: An opportunity for delegates to weigh-in on what they liked and what they didn't like this year. Use your voice! Please complete this program evaluation.

4.) Annual Support Campaign Matching Gift Challenge! Today we learned that an anonymous donor has offered to match all coalition donations from now through the close of Thursday's banquet, dollar-for-dollar up to $500. That means each dollar you spend magically becomes $2! El Dorado currently has about 41% participation and Sacramento Central about 35% participation in the Annual Support Campaign. There's still time to hit 100%! You can donate to El Dorado here and Sac Central here. All money raised goes directly to providing program access to Y&G and all youth programs our YMCA offers. Every dollar matters and makes a difference.

5.) 70th Model Legislature & Court Mailing List: Want to get a jump on the next program year? Be the first to hear about the 2017 delegation registration process? Need a link to pass along to your friends who want to join next year? Your wish is granted: http://bit.ly/capcointerest

And with that, I bid you adieu. I am pleased to hand over the Lead Advisor reins to Derek Dolfie, current advisor and El Dorado Delegation alumnus. He will be supported by Whitney and Marcus Worthington in advising leadership roles, Dylan O'Tarrow, our YMCA Y&G Coordinator, and by our entire Capitol Coalition advisor team (who are all amazing).

I wish you all well - especially our graduating seniors. Don't forget to let us know where you're off to next year. We can't wait to see how you all change the world. Looking forward to seeing many of you on Thursday!
