If you can't join us at the center, the videos are available for viewing at rootstech.org. Most are available for a full year from the original date. Some are available indefinitely.
Summer Youth Program
In the past we have held a week-long Youth Family History Camp in June able to work with only about 20 youth at a time. We are increasing the options this year and so excited to share the information with you.
We will have a youth program for the whole summer! Each stake will call 4-6 youth consultants. These consultants will be trained during the first part of June. Then from June 13 to August 9 on Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 10 am to 6 pm we will sponsor Youth Days.
The basement classroom will be reserved for the youth for those two days of the week. The trained youth consultants will be available to assist any youth coming to the center (with assistance from adult consultants only as needed for complex issues.) As the temple is coming soon, we want the youth to be prepared to find and take their own names to the temple. And not just be using Ordinances Ready (no issues in using it), but to be able to add some additional missing cousins to the tree who need temple ordinances completed.
The Priesthood Coordination Council for our center has asked us to announce this program early and ask for assistance in finding the youth consultants. If you are a youth and wish to be a consultant for the summer, or if you know of a youth who might want to be a consultant for this summer, please contact your Bishop or Stake President with names.
Some things to keep in mind as to expectations for the youth consultant. We are recommending this option for ages 13-17. This is a really open option and very flexible. The training will be May 31st to June 2nd OR June 6th to June 8th with an additional optional day on June 9th. The youth would attend one of the two trainings - not both. If the youth wish, they can become specialists in one area of their choice. This will allow each to become better in one area and not be so overwhelmed with all of the options. The youth would be asked to work a minimum of 5 - four hour shifts during the rest of the summer. This allows for youth to still be involved with their family trips, reunions, camps, and other activities during the summer. They will pick the days and times they work and could sign up with their friends to work the same shift. Additionally, the youth would be encouraged to invite their friends and youth class members to attend the center with them.
So, mark your calendars! Youth Summer Program June 13th - August 9th Tuesdays and Wednesdays 10 am to 6 pm. And, think of youth who might wish to be consultants and contact your Priesthood leaders with suggestions.
We are so excited to see the youth this summer! And of course, treats will occasionally be provided! Please share this information with anyone and everyone. We are hoping to make this a yearly summer program.
