An Important Message From Steering Committee. Please read!

April 19, 2010

Hey folks!

SMYRC is having an Extendo on April 23rd from 4-9pm and April 24th from 3-9pm. WE NEED YOU TO COME!!!!

For those of you who don’t know, Extendo is a two day Steering Committee where drop-in is
closed down. Youth won’t be able to access many of the services normally available. It lasts the entire length of a normal drop-in, and if you come you MUST PARTICIPATE IN THE
STEERING COMMITTEE!!! If you don’t want to participate, you must leave the space. You can watch the entire time, you don’t have to talk at all, but there won’t be any of the following: -Computer Use
-Talking about things other than the agenda items
-Making any food (food will be provided in breaks during Extendo) -Going in an out of the art room/ drag closet
-No pool playing

We have been working on an agenda and are welcoming people’s suggestions for what to include, however we are trying to focus on a few specific things. So far, people have brought up the following: -Reviewing the Mission Statement of SMYRC, making any necessary changes and painting it somewhere HIGHLY VISIBLE in the space.
-Reviewing the rules, making necessary changes to eliminate gray areas, and discussing a system of ramifications for breaking the rules
-Defining the on-property lines and where is SMYRC property, and reviewing what you can and cannot do on SMYRC property

If you want more info, message SMYRC on MySpace, Facebook OR email Jess at jess.herbach@smyrc.org. Or just show up and participate!
We REALLY want as many of you to come as possible. This is, after all, a YOUTH RUN space, and the YOUTH are responsible for making AND following all of the rules.

See you soon!

Rainbow, unicorns and copious amounts of glitter!
