Last year, I think we had about 4 churches come to MAYF. In order to promote the event, I plan to visit the Rockville Church of Christ on March 15. I think if people could visit congregations, we can increase attendance to the event. Since there isn’t a lot of time, we need to act fast. I will formally introduce this idea at the next meeting.

I’m not sure if anyone else can see the minutes in the previous post. If that is the case, here’s a backup
Guidelines(* - Nominated for a class):
Classes chosen (2 classes)
Business Issues:
Confirmation that Elmer Pacheco is guest speaking
Designs looked at for t-shirts; stencil is likely to be non-paper to allow re-use
Classes to be seperated by grades (possibly 7th-9th grade and 10th-12th grade)
Possible Teachers discussed:
I was thinking about changing the password for giggles… but decided against it…
A couple random thoughts:
1) We should follow last year as a template and pretty much keep the same schedule, food, and class structures…
2) In one of our meetings we can all look at it on the board and just make tweaks here and there to jazz it up…
3) What is the link for that stencil thing for the shirts? Maybe the meeting right before we leave, we can all pre-make a whole bunch of shirts??
4) Verses for classes… Ideas for free time….
5) Who are we inviting?

There are alot of things that need to be done before we are ready for the Youth Forum.
-create a schedule
-place people in cabins, gather the registrations
-give teachers their assignments
-talk to the chosen speaker as a group
-anything else that I can’t think of
We might want to work on these.
