Sac Central Delegation Bulletin #18: And then there was one....

Well, here we are. We have one meeting left this year, one conference, and one celebration banquet and then the curtain will fall on the 72nd Model Legislature & Court. I keep checking my calendar but, alas, it is true. So let's run down your to-do list between now and February 5 so we can get ready for Feb 13-17! :

1.) Rotary Crab Feed Volunteers Needed! - 3 shifts on Sat, Feb 8. Info and sign up here. Sign-ups due by tomorrow (1/31) at 12 noon. 

2.) Mandatory Meeting Next Week, Feb 5. Next week is our pre-con meeting. it is mandatory for all delegates + a family member. I let family members off the hook for the first two conferences, but the logistical changes for this year's conference mean all need to attend. 

3.) Sac Delegation Dinner Order. On Friday night at Sac, we will head to Oishii Sushi and karaoke together. Your order is due by Feb 5. Order here. 

4.) 4th Annual CapCo Celebration Banquet, Sun, Feb 23. Tickets available here. If you're coming, please get your tickets ASAP - the quick turnaround between conference and banquet makes the logistics tricky. Have mercy on your party-planning advisors! If the ticket cost presents a hardship, let me know ASAP. 

5.) CONA, California Advocacy Days, and Governing Board Apps Due Feb 1 in Reggo. Details in previous bulletin here. These are GREAT opportunities - go for it! Some need letters of recommendation so you need to ask for those now if you're applying. 

6.) Annual Campaign: we have three years of bragging rights and a pizza party on the line (you know, in addition to living our values by supporting our fellow delegates). Can we be the first to 100% participation? We're at 31% right now. Give today! bit.ly/capcocampaign

7.) Dress Code Review. Last night, we reviewed Sac attire. Dress code info can be found here (in Spanish). Slides from last night can be found here. You must be in Sac attire from 8am/when you leave your hotel room in the morning until 10pm at night. 

8.) New Capitol Rules. Last night we reviewed the new Capitol rules. Delegates signed this policy, parents need to sign at the meeting next week. 

9.) Congrats to our newly elected Officers! Thank you to all who ran. We're going to have a great year next year! Congrats to our 73rd MLC Officer Team who will be sworn in at the Celebration Banquet on February 23:

• President: Trisha Nagin

Sacramento Central YMCA Annual Support Campaign. Each year, the Sacramento Central YMCA provides over $100,000 in financial support to guarantee that our programs, focusing on healthy living, youth development, and social responsibility, are available to everyone in our community. At the YMCA we believe that opportunity should be a right, not a privilege. It doesn't matter where you come from or what your means are, everyone has the right to live a healthy life to their fullest potential. 

Our goal each year is simple: 100% participation by each of our Capitol Coalition Families. Participation starts at just $1. Here are 4 ways to participate:

1. Visit bit.ly/capcocampaign
