NOTE: No Meeting this week! We will not meet on December 21, 28, or January 4. Meetings will resume Thursday, January 11 with a mandatory pre-conference meetingin advance of our January 13 T&E II departure. 

1.) Training & Elections Conference II: Back to Fresno: Our next conference is Saturday, January 13-Monday, January 15. Our mandatory pre-conference meeting will be held Thursday, January 11 (this is also our first meeting back after the break). Our travel schedule will be roughly the same as it was on the way there (depart at about 9:30 on Saturday, return about 3pm on Monday). We'll be staying at the Wyndham Hotel again. You should again plan on bringing a sack lunch for the trip there.

You can pre-order lunch for the trip home here. Orders must be received by Jan 11. 

2.) Final Payments: Final payments were due by last Friday. All delegate accounts should be at zero before December 22 unless you have an extended payment plan agreement in place. Please pay online or bring a check to the YMCA (payable to "Sacramento Central YMCA" with your name in the memo line) ASAP! If you have any questions about your remaining balance or payment-related concerns, please contact Dylan immediately. 

3.) National Judicial Competition. Applications for the 2018 YMCA National Judicial Competition (NJC) are now available in Reggo. NJC is a national YMCA judicial competition held in Chicago, Illinois. NJC is an amazing opportunity for Court delegates to take their Y&G experience to the next level. The selection process is highly competitive, awarding 28 delegates the opportunity to participate each year. The conference will be July 26-August 2, 2018. NJC applications are due by 11:59 PM on Thursday, December 21 in Reggo. For more information on NJC, go to the NJC Resources page or ask Lauren Tilley, who attended last year's NJC.
