Success! Well done Youth Council

First thank you all so much for the successful Veteran Program Saturday. It was our most attended progran yet. Good Job. Thanks for everything.

The blanket project is up and running. It was announced at the Northern Wasatch Rotary meeting last night to donate adult blankets and can personalize them with a note to the Soldier (attached). The blankets can be gently used. If any youth council member is interested please bring them to our next meeting or city hall. We will have some fleece to tie at our next meeting. As a council we plan to write notes to soldiers as well.

We plan to place flags on graves Friday after school at the cemetary from approximately 2:30-3:30. The Standard Examiner will probably be there to take pictures and place a story in the newspaper.

Youth Council's project of uniform recycling that we started ion the summer had a successful and happy ending. We just donated 63 shirts, 38 soccer shorts, and soccer socks to Bruce Powell who will take them to Mexico! All the other donations of cleats, and gear will be donated to the Ogden Rec. Center. This is a continueing project, and Bruce plans to take another trip in Febuary to Mexico.
