How did you find out about the Youth Advisory Committee? I found out about the Youth Advisory Committee from school announcements. During the announcements, I heard about Dub town jams and karaoke night promoted by YAC. Another way I found out about YAC was that my sister was in it last year. She used to tell me what she did at the meetings and at the events, and I became interested. 2. What do you know about the Youth Advisory Committee? I know that the Youth Advisory Committee are made up of a group of teens in high school and middle school, and that they want to plan events so that other students can enjoy them, too. YAC has monthly meetings and they use their ideas on how to get other kids their age involved in activities. They work in groups and share their ideas about events they can plan in the future, and then they make it happen. 3. Why are you interested in serving on this Committee? I am interested in serving on this Committee because I want to be more involved and have a say in what goes on in the city of Dublin for the youth. Also, I want to help organize, discuss, and put together ideas from myself and other people. I feel like I want to be a part of YAC and possibly see my ideas go into action. I want to work with others and take their ideas into consideration, and to see what everyone else thinks. I think that YAC should have an event like a dance contest or have races (like field day). 4. What skills do you possess that would make you a strong candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee? A skill that I have is that I am responsible. If I need to set -up an event or call other members, I will do it on time and I'll remember, what is important. Another skill I have is that I am patient and that I will listen to everyone's opinions and take them into consideration. I am also sociable and hardworking. I will attempt to complete anything that is needed to be done. 5. If you could be involved in the planning for one event, what would it be? Please explain. I would like to be involved in planning a dance. I think that would be fun. I would like to choose a theme, have a d.j., promote the event, and get decorations. I would hear about everyone else's ideas and maybe there could be real live bands playing. 6. What activities are you currently involved in or will be involved in during the 2002 -2003 school year? I take piano lessons and tap dance both once a week. I am also in Dublin 4 -H, and I will be vice president for that club. I will also attend Chinese School on Saturdays. 7. How would the activities in question # b effect your time commitment to the Youth Advisory Committee? I will have plenty of time for the Committee. Since I only have piano and tap once a week, and 4 -H meetings once a month, I will have time planning and getting involved in YAC. 8.

How did you find out about the Youth Advisory Committee? I originally heard of the Youth Advisory Committee two years ago from some classmates that were promoting an event. This past year, I was glad to have had the opportunity to serve as an alternate committee member for the Youth Advisory Committee. 2. What do you know about the Youth Advisory Committee? I know that the Youth Advisory Committee is a group of middle school and high school students appointed by the Mayor to serve as representatives of the youth in the City of Dublin. They work hard with Recreation Specialists and Coordinators to put on events for youth in the city and to provide input on events and projects. 3. Why are you interested in serving on this Committee? I am interested in serving on this Committee because I want to implement more activities for the youth in the city to attend. I would like to be a member of the Committee this year and work with other youth and the city to promote a safe, and drug and alcohol free environment. I would like to see more teens attending events that are sponsored by the Youth Advisory Committee and the City of Dublin because those are the teens that will stay focused and out of trouble. By offering more events for teens to attend, the less time they have to do things that are not beneficial. Serving on this Committee will allow me to express my opinions and provide new ideas for the city. 4. What skills do you possess that would make you a strong candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee? I am a very friendly, outgoing, and creative person. I work very well with people and I always stay focused. Having been in Leadership in middle school and high school, I am capable of leading a group and also being a follower. I am responsible, reliable, patient, and very , organized. I enjoy brainstorming ideas for events and working on some of them .......... . to carry them out successfully. I like to finish projects that I start, and I always make sure I do a thorough job. Working with other youth is one of my favorite things to do because when we are put together, our enthusiasm can make anything work. 5. If you could be involved in the planning for one event, what would it be? Please explain. If I could be involved in the planning for one event, it would be the planning of a Tri- Valley Dance. A lot of the time, youth are not exposed to people outside of their area in a safe environment. Having lived in Dublin all my life, I believe that a Tri- Valley Dance would be a good event to put on because it allows the youth in the city to not only get to know their peers better, but other youth in neighboring cities as well. This event has already been suggested by a group of high school men that have everything planned out. They would like security to be enforced by the Dublin Police, and identification would be i needed to get into the event as well. Hours of the event would be reasonable to prevent any disturbances in the neighborhoods. I would be delighted to help them make this suggestion into a successful evening for Tri -Valley Youth? 6. What activities are you currently involved in or will be involved in during the 2002 -2003 school year? The activities that I am currently involved in or will be involved in during the 2002 -2003 school year are the Dublin 4 -H Club, where I will serve as President, Dublin High's Leadership, Dublin High's Women's Tennis Team, Chinese School, and I will be Secretary of three clubs at Dublin High as well: Interact, Scholars of Society, and California Scholarship Federation. I am currently planning to start a Cancer Club at Dublin High with the assistance of the American Cancer Society. I will be doing some volunteer work with the American Cancer Society and will serve as their High School Representative on their Board, and I may work as a tutor during the week. 7. How would the activities in question #6 effect your time commitment to the Youth Advisory Committee? Having done most of the activities in question ##6 before, I know that it will not restrict my time commitment to the Youth Advisory Committee. I served as an alternate Committee member this year and I attended every monthly meeting held. I also attended subcommittee meetings and events like Karaoke Night, Midnight Bowling, St. Patrick's Day Festival, and Dub Town Jam. I would like to be even more involved with the Youth Advisory Committee this upcoming year, by serving as a member and using the knowledge I obtain from Leadership and all other activities that I am involved in, to make an even more successful Youth Advisory Committee. 8. If you are not selected to the Youth Advisory Committee, would you be interested in serving on one of the following committees: Publicity and Promotions Special Event Planning Teen Nights Dub Town Jam If I am not selected to the Youth Advisory Committee, I would love to serve on any of the following committees because I know that they all require dedication and a lot of work. Specifically, I would like to see more attendance by high school youth to Dub Town Jam and more Teen Nights. 9.

How did you find out about the Youth Advisory Committee? I was a member of the committee last year. I originally found out about it through some students on the committee who also attend my school. I also found out from the booth at the St. Patrick's Day fair last year, and from a school G.A.T.E. meeting which one of the adult advisors came to. 2. What do you know about the Youth Advisory Committee? I know that the Y.A.C. helps to plan and organize different events for Dublin's youth, such as the Dub Town Jam, St. Patrick's Day activities, the Dublin Fun Run, etc. The members work with adult advisors to plan and promote activities and events for city youth's. It's also a lot of fun! 3. Why are you interested in serving on this Committee? I served on the committee last year, and had a great experience. I got the chance to work with new and interesting people on a variety of projects. I'm interested in meeting more people and sharing our ideas. It's also a great way to have your voice heard, and a way for your ideas to actually become a reality. I chaired the sub- committee for the St. Patrick's Day festivities last year, and am interested in possibly chairing another sub- committee this year. I'm also a member of DHS's Leadership class, but the Y.A.C. is more involved in events that directly affect the city and its youth. 4. What skills do you possess that would make you a strong candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee? I possess good leadership and organizational skills. I am artistic and creative and work well with others. Please see attached resume (Qualifications). 5. If you could be involved in the planning for one event, what would it be? Please explain. If I could be involved in the planning of one event, I would want to help with the Dub Town Jam. Each year we have this event, it's a learning process, and we come out of the night with ideas as to how to make next years' event even better. I think last years' D.T.J. was a success, but there is more planning and improving to do for the next one. It's one of the Y.A.C.'S signature events; there is a lot of publicity, and many teens attend. It's a great feeling to see people having a good time and knowing that you helped to make it happen. 6. What activities are you currently involved in or will be involved in the 2002 -2003 school year? In the 2002/2003 school year, I will possibly be involved in two Varsity sports, basketball and track. I am also a member of the Leadership class at Dublin High, and will be a member of DHS's G.A.T.E. program, as well as a member of C.S.F. (California Scholarship Federation). Please see attached resume (Groups and Activities). 7. How would activities in #6 effect your time commitment to the Youth Advisory Committee? I have often taken on a large amount of work during the school year. From sports to academics to clubs, I have managed to keep up my grades and still be able to devote complete and undivided time to all of the various activities. During the school year when I got my sports schedules, I could easily arrange my calendar to spend time with Y.A.C. I believe that Y.A.C. would be no different, causing no problem in my scheduling. 8. If you are not selected to the Youth Advisory Committee, would you be interested in serving on one of the following committees? I would be interested in serving on the "Dub Town Jam" committee. It was fun to help plan that event last year as a member of Y.A.C., and I'd like to help out if I am not selected for Y.A.C. 9. References: a. Lauren Abrams, #(925) 855 -7009 b.

I found out about the Youth Advisory Committee a few years ago from my father who was a sponsor for the committee. I was a YAC member last year and really enjoyed being apart of the group. 2) What do you know about the Youth Advisory Committee? I know the Youth Advisory Committee provides activities for the teens of Dublin. Activities like kareoke night and midnight bowling. Towards the end of the year they have their biggest event called the Dub Town Jam. This event has music, food, fun, and games for the teens of Dublin to enjoy. YAC also provides a few special events such as the Youth Music Showcase and trips to the snow. The Youth Advisory Committee meets the first Thursday of every month to organize these events, and subcommittee meetings are held as well. 3) Why are you interested in serving on this committee? I am interested in serving on this committee because I really enjoyed being apart of it before. I made some new friends and it really helped me with my social skills. It's helped me to open up more and speak my mind. I like organizing activities and making posters and getting the word out about our events. It is a lot of fun and I like working with others to provide a fun time for the teens of Dublin. 4) What skills do you possess that would make you a strong candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee? The skills that I possess to make me a strong candidate are leadership, organization, administrative and human relations. I was a previous YAC member and served on the publicity committee. I had to communicate with others and attend subcommittee meetings. I have two years of experience in a leadership class. These skills make me a strong candidate. 5) If you could be involved in planning one event, what would it be? Please explain. I would like to be involved in the planning of the Youth Music Showcase. I attended this event and had a lot of fun. There was food, drink and local bands. I would like to be in charge of getting bands to play for us and publicizing the event so we would have a big turn out. 6) What activities are you currently involved in or will be involved in during the 2002 -2003 school year? C�� e V.5 I will be playing soccer for the city of Dublin until early December. I am currently playing JV summer league basketball for Dublin high school. 7) How would these activities in question #6 effect your time commitment to the Youth Advisory Committee? If I make the team for either soccer or basketball at Dublin High School during the school year practices should not effect my time commitment. 8) If you are selected to the Youth Advisory, would you be interested in serving on one of the following committees: Publicity & Promotions - Special Event Planning - Teen Nights - Dub Town Jam I would like to serve on the Publicity & Promotions committee and the Teen Nights committee. I like making posters and I have neat handwriting. I have some unique ideas on how we could promote our activities. I also have some thoughts on what activities teens are into. 9) Please provide the name and number of three references.

How did you find out about the Youth Advisory Committee? I was recommended to the Youth Advisory Committee by a friend who had served on it before. Also, I had heard about Y.A.C. events such as Karaoke Nights over the Dublin High P.A. system. 2. What do you know about the Youth Advisory Committee? The Youth Advisory Committee is the voice for Dublin youth. It gives middle and high school teens the opportunity to formulate, promote, and implement recreational activities for the city's youth. It is a forum for teens to stay involved in their community and to channel their ideas and services into issues and events that affect them. 3. Why are you interested in serving on this Committee? I believe that teens, with their fresh ideas and energy, can contribute greatly to a community. That is why I am concerned whenever I see some teens go off on wayward paths instead of filling their youth with good memories and meaning. The Y.A.0 is an important asset to the city because it fosters safe and positive activities for the teens and creates leadership opportunities for its members. Y.A.C. events bring teens together and enhance their sense of community. For these reasons, I feel that the Youth Advisory Committee is a very important organization, and I would be honored to serve on it. 4. What skills do you possess that would make you a strong candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee? I have been actively involved in leadership through conferences, school clubs, and Dublin High's student government (Junior Class Secretary 2001 -02). These activities have honed me to be an experienced student leader. In addition, dedication is one of my strongest qualities. I have the energy and perseverance to face challenges and problems, as well as the responsibility to see things through. 5. If you could be involved in the planning for one event, what would it be? Please explain. I would like to plan for the Y.A.C's Dub Town Jam. It is one of the bigger events for the Youth Advisory Committee, and one of the more well- known. I have been to the Dub Town Jam events in both 2001 and 2002, and I am very impressed at 3? 4y5 the growth and potential of this event. With effort and planning, this event can continue to be enjoyed and looked forward to by the youth. I hope to make next year's Dub Town Jam an even greater success! 6. What activities are you currently involved in or will be involved in during the 2002 -2003 school year? I will be in student leadership again next year, chairing the Multicultural Committee. I will also be active in the school clubs such as Scholars of Society and the Interact club, where I hold positions. In addition, I play the piano and volunteer at the Senior Center. 7. How would the activities in question # 6 affect your time commitment to the Youth Advisory Committee? If I am selected, I plan to commit myself to the Youth Advisory Committee. Most of my activities are during school hours (lunchtime meetings, meetings before school etc.) so they would probably have negligible effect on my time commitment to the Committee. I can also schedule my piano lessons and volunteering sessions around major Y.A.C. events. 8.

I also saw a program on channel thirty about the youth committees in the area. 2. Based on my participation in YAC, I know that it is a committee of made of teens and a few adults that meet once a month in official meetings and more often for subcommittee meetings. In official meetings, the committee focuses on planning and publicizing teen events. In subcommittee meetings, all the details of these events are planned out. Some of these events include Karaoke Night, Capture the Flag Night, Dub Town Jam, and the St. Patrick's Day Parade. 3. I am interested in serving on YAC because this year I would like a leadership opportunity within the committee this year because I have observed how the committee is run and how it can be run most efficiently. In addition, I felt that participating in YAC helped me become more extroverted, a trait that I would like to improve more next year. Most importantly, 1 have some ideas for a new YAC web page that would enable many more teens to have direct access to teen events around the city since so many teens spend many hours online every night. 4. The skills I posses that would make me a strong candidate include diligence, intelligence, and motivation. When I make a plan, I always follow through with it. I have maintained straight A's since 6' grade. This reflects my dedication towards commitments I make. In addition, I have an agreeable personality, essential when working in groups. 5. I would like to be involved in planning any of the events, but if I were to be particular, I would like to help out with the Snowboard Trip because for the last two years, the trip has never gotten enough participants. I think with the right publicity, it can go through this year. In addition, I would enjoy planning the YAC booth for the St. Patrick's Day Parade because St. Patrick's Day is a huge event for the City of Dublin. 6. During the school year, the activities I am in outside of school are piano and martial arts. In school, I am on the Interact Club and CSF. Because of a lack of information about standardized tests, scholarships, and volunteering opportunities, my two friends and I founded a club called "Scholars of Society." I am on the varsity woman's tennis team at Dublin High. I volunteer at the Dublin Senior Center, Valley Care Hospital in Pleasanton, and Valley Care Health Library in Pleasanton. I also tutor my neighbors in the piano and in academics. 7. I feel that these activities would not affect my time commitment in YAC because I can plan MY time well. Last year, I participated in the same activities and I was still able to place YAC as one of my top priorities. 8. I would be interested in serving on the Dub Town Jam committee and Special Event Planning committee. 9.

I was a member of the Youth Advisory Committee. Two years ago, I heard of the Y.A.C. through a friend, and through these years, I have seen Y.A.C.'s publicity increase, appearing in the newspaper and in the announcements at Dublin schools. 2. The Youth Advisory Committee is a committee of teenagers who meet the first Thursday of every month at the Civic Center to plan activities for teenagers. It is a committee that works much like the actual City's Advisory Committee. Y.A.C. promotes fun and safe events for the youth of Dublin, and participates in many other city activities, such as the St. Patrick's Day festival and Senior Center banquets. 3. I would like to serve on this Committee, because I not only enjoy participating in City events, but also creating and planning them. My past experiences with Y.A.C. have been very enjoyable and I would like to remain part of this group. 4. I am a strong candidate for Y.A.C., because I have had much leadership and community service experience, not to mention experience at being a Y.A.C. member. I am also very organized and active. Concerning the attendance of meetings, I am punctual and dependable. I have participated in most of the Y.A.C. subcommittee meetings the past term (2001- 2002). 5. If there was only one event to choose, I would be involved in the planning for Dub Town Jam. I had already been the Chairperson of this subcommittee the last term (2001 - 2002). I would like to share my experience with future Y.A.C. members and further improve the Dub Town Jam. 6. In the 2002 -2003 school year, I will be participating in the Dublin High School Varsity Women's Tennis Team. I will also be volunteering as a tutor and participating in a couple of the school's clubs (such as Interact and GATE). 7. I have been participating in the tennis team, clubs, and tutoring for the past two years, while also being a Y.A.C. member. There will be no problem balancing my schedule between these activities and giving Y.A.C. a due share of my time. My participation in other clubs will also aid Y.A.C. during events that require volunteering. 8. I would be interested in serving on any of these committees. 9.
