The National Network for Youth symposium



I guess I haven't reported on Lisa and Katrina, and Randi and Shelby's trip to Washington DC yet. I hope I can figure out how to attach some pictures, too!! They had a great time; they visited Senator Byrd's office, saw some of the landmark's of Washington by night, rode the Metro (subway) and visited the National Zoo. They also took part in workshop sessions, met young people from Guam, Hawaii, the west coast, and many other places! They are excited by the experience, and intend to share some of their experiences, and use the opportunity to expand their youth leadership and voice here in the Parkersburg area, and are already looking to do some fund raising to pay for a return trip next January.
