Y&G Sac Central Bulletin #17: 12 days till conference!

While we don't have a meeting this Wednesday, we DO have a meet-up scheduled to work on Bill Boxes. Please review this week's info carefully! 

1.) Bill Boxes: We will have a Bill Boxes working day TOMORROW!, Wednesday, January 3, from 10am to 3pm at the CalYMCA headquarters, located at 1792 Tribute Road, Suite 480, Sacramento CA 95815. (map) Delegates will help copy and file bill supplement packets for all bills statewide. It's a lot of work, but with many hands to help, it won't take too long. Lunch will be provided.

2.) Training & Elections Conference II: Back to Fresno: Our next conference is Saturday, January 13-Monday, January 15. Our mandatory preconference meeting will be held next Wednesday, January 10. 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.

2a.) Delegation of Distinction Lanyard, Sweatshirt, Drawstring Backpacks: You will recall that no new Delegation of Distinction Lanyards will be distributed this year. Please bring your badge lanyard that you were given at the first conference to this next conference. If you don't, you'll receive a plain blue lanyard instead. Also, remember to pack your delegation sweatshirt and the drawstring backpack you received at the first conference - these will not be redistributed either! 

3.) Winter Break is A Great Time to Catch Up With Your Buddy!: Here is a link to the list of buddy pairs/groups and our photo scavenger hunt challenge. Photos must be uploaded before the close of the Govenor's Banquet at Sac Conference! Good luck! Returners - it's your job to check in with your buddy to see how their year is going!

4.) Annual Campaign Team Leaders: I am looking for a volunteer to head up our Sacramento Central Annual Campaign Team. The job entails reaching out to your fellow delegates and tracking participation in our annual campaign. Also, you'll be working with leaders from Eldo on setting coalition-wide goals. Our participation goal is set, however: 100% participation from every delegate family. Remember, every dollar counts, so even $1 counts as participation! The campaign will kick off at our January 10 meeting and run through February 15 at ML/C check-in.

5.) Bill Sponsors and NIC delegate (Aaron!): Now is the time to work on speeches and proposals. Check your email archives for info on each. If you have questions, ask! We'll discuss NIC proposal drafts at next week's meeting.
