The Radio

Did you know that your radio dial has an FM and AM setting? If not you may have missed out on two GYC leadership members ruling the air waves. KVNU's "For the People" was gracious in conducting an interview with us about GYC and some of the awesome things we have been doing this year. We were able to educate listeners on e-cigarettes and alcohol. You can check out the interview below or you can go to the KVNU webpage and listen to it there.

GYC Goes to the School Board

Box Elder GYC representatives present on e-cigarettes at a Box Elder School Board meeting

Box Elder GYC representatives did an awesome job presenting to the Box Elder School Board on e-cigarettes and asking them to add e-cigarettes to their policies. Mount Logan Middle School and Leadership also did an awesome job presenting to the Logan School Board. Cache students will get their opportunity to shine on March 6th.

Capitol Trip

Salt Lake City-GYC spent February 6th at the Utah State Capitol watching the Legislative session and educating our representatives.

Despite a snowy start and a few delays the capitol trip was a huge success. GYC was able to watch the reading of H.B. 40 right as they walked into the House session. While sitting in on the Senate session, several bills were read and voted on.

The highlight of the trip came as GYC met with their representatives. GYC was honored to visit with representatives    Jack Draxler, Ed Redd, Curt Webb, Rhonda Menlove, and Lee Perry. They were able to educate us on the whole legislative process and on some of the bills they are currently working on. In return GYC was able to explain some of the issue they see and educate them a little on e-cigarettes.
