Youth Adv/sory Committee Application - Brenton A. Jones Answers to .questions on appIicat/on form. 1. I found out about the Youth Advisory Committee from my Mom, who saw the article in the newspaper. 2. I know the Youth Advisory Committee works with adult advisors to come up v~dth activities which will be enjoyed by teens. 3. I am interested in serving on this Committee because I feel I have some good ideas, and would like to make sure they are included in the planning of teen activities. Also, I would like to hear about ideas other people have. 4. I would be a good candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee because I get along well with people, and am a team player. 5. IfI could be involved in planning one event, it would be a local one-on-one or hoop-it -up basketball contest. We would get prizes donated from the local businessess. An example would be a pizza party for the winner and 8 of their friends. 6. I will be involved in basketball and baseball in the 1999-2000 school 3'ear. 7. I would have to schedule my time (studying, basketball and baseball practice) to make sure I have time to participate and be helpfuI to the Committee. 8. If I am not selected to the Committee, I would still like to help with special event planning 9.

I first heard of the Youth Advisory Committee when, in the seventh grade, I received a notice in the Wells Middle School cafeteria during a lunch period. The information read something like this, "Join the Youth Advisory Committee. Just think of the possibilities... Dances, concerts, ski trips, and more...For more information call [Park and Recreation Department telephone number]." I was unsure of how extraordinary an opportunity this was, but I took the initiative to call the Even number. I was informed that I had until some date in June to obtain an application from the Civic Center and return it, completed. Then I was interviewed and was appointed to the committee. 2.) I am quite familiar with the Youth Advisory Committee. I 'know that it is a city- organized group of Dublin students in grades 6 through 12. It currently consists of eleven members, of whOm one is in each of grades 6-8 and two are in each of grades 9-12. The committee has a set of bylaws, which provide that its members must be appointed indMdually each August, and whose terms continue until the following August. This committee serves to meet the interests of the "common Dublin teenager." A member represents his or her school and community by voting, motioning, and planning activities to entertain his or her peers. 3.) I am interested in serving on this committee because I am an innovative young resident of Dublin. I realize that not all people of any age have unanimous interests. Thus it is the duty of members of the community to provide services desirable to the community we represent, and to eliminate undesirable services, within the realm of reason. I do not believe that the committee has met its goal thus far. It must discuss serious issues affecting Dublin's young students, have direct contact with the populace, and maintain a sufficient financial status to provide community activities. Instead, when it meets one of its goals, another one is forgotten. I will treat this organization as a representative le~slature that has open and intimate communication with the people it must serve. 4.) I possess many skills and qualities that would make me a good leader and a strong candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee. I enjoy leading discussions and playing an active role in whatever activity is being undertaken. I am an experienced, persuasive speaker. I listen to opposing opinions and debate with my adversary. I am sensible when rationing the public's money. When I begin a project, I complete a project. I accept defeat. I am an effective leader. 5.) IfI could plan one event, it would be a Thanksgiving festival. It would take place the Saturday before Thanksgiving Day. I would pUrchase a gigantic inflatable turkey. This would stand atop the Dublin Civic Center. I would invite students at nearby special education centers; young dancers from the Tri-Valley; bands from any Dublin schools who wish to participate; the mayors of San Rarnorg Pleasanton, Danville, and Livermore; small artists and assorted vendors; turkey farmers; a local young actors' association who would enact the meeting of the English pilgrims and the tribes who inhabited the Eastern United States at the time. I would also isolate a portion exclusively for youths in grades 6-12, and another exclusively for kids in grades K-5. The former would contain a disc jockey and a dance floor. The latter would contain two inflatable "bounce houses." 6.) I occupy my time with assorted activities. I play the piano individually and the saxophone in two bands. I play tennis and run cross-country. I advocate a given case on my school's Mock Trial Team. I serve the community through the Interact Club and the Youth Advisory Committee (I am a member this 1998-99 term). Next year, I will be a member of the Dublin High School leadership class and the student representative for the Dublin School Board. I am considering also applying for the student journalist position for the Tri-Valley Herald. 7.) N~arly every hour of my weekday time will be occupied by some activity next year. However, there is no activity that will directly conflict with my time commitment to this committee; I do not have any regular scheduled activity on Thursday nights. If a conflict does arise, I will need to make a decision at that time. This year, I have attended 100% of the meetings this committee has held. I do not believe such would be the case next year, but I would make every effort to avoid conflicts. I will have limited time outside of the regular meetings, but I will be willing to use it to serve the Y..~C. 8.) IfI am not selected to serve on the Youth Advisory committee, I would be interested in s~-ving on-the Dub Town Jam subcommittee. 9.) References ii:i~-'.-':i~.'.'.%':!.'.::~::'::::.~.~::::~.

Catie I-Icc tma~ 8189 Tamarack Dr. Dublin, CA 94568 June 11, 1999 1. I found out about the Youth Advisory Committee through the Dublin Recreational Guide. 2. I know that it is a group of teenagers that organize youth events. They have organized the Dublin Town Jam, which took place at the Civic Center. They also give input to the city council about how to improve the community for teenagers and as a ~hole. 3. I wou~ld like to be more involved in my commu_n~ty to know v~hat is happening and how I can help. I have .many ideas on how teenagers can help improve the commumity and how they can have fun in the process. 4. I have very good orgaIzizational sl~-~lls. I am also very cornnmitted to everything that I do. For example, I have been in the same choi~ for nine years. When I am placed in a situation, I analyze it before I take an actiozz 5.. I would like to organize, a big sister/ brother program. It would be a program where a high school student could get together -~ith a yoiznger elementary age child or a middle school student. They would be able to support each other and help each other through difficult situations. There could be parties for the big and little sister/ brother program. I would also like to set up a teen hot-line. It could be a help-line that teenagers could call into to talk to other teenagers. There could also be counselors there if they were needed. 6. I am the Secretary for my Sophomore Class. I am a leader in l~¢iasionettes, a Christian group for girls at my church, Valley Clmristiaam I also work in the nursery at my church. 7. My position on student council does not require any out of school time. The 1V~zissionette meetings are only once a week. l~y nursery work is mainly on Sunday mornings. I do not thin~ that these commitments would effect my connz~tment to the Advisory Committee. 8. I woizld be interested in Publicity and Promotions. 9. References: 1. Judith Mayton 484~t921 2.

I found out about the Youth A&Ssory Committee through the ne~oaper last year, but ~s unable to apply because of a conflict in schedules. 2. I see the Youth Advisory Committee as an important way for teens to voice their opinions, discuss and work towards resoMng issues that affect Dublin's teens, and work together to get things done for the betterment of the community. It is a ~my to get involved in the city and the people in it, and make a d/fference to those willing to recognize the voice of the furore. 3. 1 want to help mnke Dublin an even better place for teenagers to li,~ and a place a~ith more oppommities, both meaningful and fun, for them to take part in. I also xx~.nt to become more im'oh'ed in volunteerism and leadership, and this seems to be the ideal ~y to do both. 4. I have a ~ry. strong determination and desire to improve myse~ my enviromnent and mx' communi~'. I belie~,e I have the personality to be a strong leader and am working toam-d &'weloping leadership skills. (I am currently applying to the Junior Leadership Program.) I enjoy developing and organizing ~,ents. I see rnyselfas open-minde& articulate, creath,e, intelligent and respons~le and belim'e these traits a'ill contribute to the benefit of the Dublin Youth AclxSsor).? Committee. I also l'm,e musical and artistic ab~ifies and a variet), of computer sl~s that maybe useful. 5. I would like to be im,olved in the planning of the Dub Tcram Jam,. (or a similar newly d~'eloped e~'ent) because I believe that it is a wonderful a~y to promote a sense of communi~' and fun among teens. I think it is the positive kind of event we need, and that with ~'en more publicity, it could be a huge ocmsion that would appeal to teens all around the Tri-Valles' arm and beyond._ 6. Next 3'ear, I xdll be involved in mx' school's yearbook staf[ perhaps school plays, Saint Raymond's Youth Group, and a few lesser other activities that I have also been involved in this year. (French Club, California Scholarship Federation). ' 7. M°st of my scheduled actix4fies are school related and ~5ti take phce at times which wonid not conflict with my commitment to this committee. $. I would be interested in being on an3' of the listed committ~s, but would prefer to be on the main Youth AdvisoD, Committee. 9.

Phone (925) 551-8055 1. Karen Seals is the person who told me about the Dublin Youth Advisory Committee. I am involved in Hypest. Hypest stands for Helping Youth Practice Educational Skills About Tobacco. Karen works with Hypest, and she told me that the YAC would be a really fun experience, so I was interested. I knew I liked being involved in fun activities that include matting decisions, and helping others, so I wanted to try it out. Once I found out what the Youth Advisory Committee was really about I was even more interested. I decided that this was something I wanted to do. 2. I Imow that the Youth Advisory Committee is a meeting that is nm by Youth and an advisor. Together the youth plan fun events for the teens in Dublin. They also do voluntary work and discuss important issues in Dublin. The teens in the committee help the city of Dublin understand what the teens think, and how they would like to approach important issues in Dublin, especially involving the youth. 3. I am very interested in serving on the Youth Advisory Committee. I feel that this would be a wonderful experience.-One of the most important parts in serving on the committee is that you have to be able to be a leader to other youth. I think that I am ready to be a leader, and support Dublin. I love to work with other teens, and children. I also like to meet new people every chance I get. If I were excepted into the committee I know I would try my best to do every possible thing I could do to improve the interactions among the youth of Dublin. I hope I am able to help in any way ifI am not excepted into the committee. The youth of Dublin are very important to me. 4. I couldn't think of one event straight off the back of my head, but I can suggest something we could plan an event on. I think that the youth of Dublin need to connect. If we could desigu an event that would help to do that than I am in. One day I would like to see everyone interacting together. I know that if everyone on the Youth Advisory Committee brainstorms something together, we can get any event accomplished. In order to get anything accomplished as a team, we must work together and interact ourselves, That's the only way we can make a difference. 5. I could be involved in the planning of any event. I am interested in helping Dublin in any way, shape, or form. I am volunteering some of my time to help Dublin. I want to participate in any event Dublin needs help with. 6. In the 1999 school year I will continue to be involved in Hypest and Friday Night Live. I will also be in CSF again along with the French Club. I will probably be involved in softball and tennis. I am really hoping that the Youth Advisory Committee will be included on my list ofthing's to d° also. 7. None of my activities will be in the way of me attending the YAC meetings. I will always be on time for the meetings and be involved in all the activities possible. I am making a commitment to be there on time, every time. 8. If I am not selected to be on the Youth Advisory Committee I would like to be involved in ali the activities listed. I would like to help with Publicity and Promotions, Special Event Planning, Teen Ni~hts, and the Dub Town Jam. 9.

Tony Watts 6/14/99 Youth A dviso r~ Committee Name: Tony Watts Address: 7997 Iglesia Drive City, St.: Dublin, CA Phone: (510) 829 - 6313 School: Dublin High School Grade: 10th/Sophomore 1.) One day, I was listening to the intercom announcements at school, when they started to talk about the Youth Advisory Committee (a.k.a~ Y.A.C.), I decided that I would get an application. 2.) I -know that the Youth Advisory Committee is a group of people that organizes group and school events, such as dances, et cetera. 3.) I am interested in the Youth Advisory Committee, because I would really like to become more, involved in the community than with just the Interact Club. I think that it Would be a great deal of fun to be in the Youth Advisory Committee. I have grown up in Dublin and am excited about the opportunity to have some input on ideas and activities that involve my peers and myself in this community. Lastly, I think that it would look great on my application to Stanford (which is where I am planning on going for college). 4.) Some of the skills that I have that would make me a superb candidate for the Youth Advisory Committee is that I work great in groups. I am a very good problem solver as well, and I am also very artistic. I am a really good people person, and I enjoy coming up with some ideas for the community. I have very good leadership s 'kills as well. Lastly, I am a 4.0 student and was the Valedictorian for my eighth grade class at Wells Middle School (97-98 school year). 5.) IfI could be involved in planning one event it would be a swing dance for the whole Tfi-Valley. I would love to teach anyone that would need any help learning any of the dance moves. I have actually taken a six'week long swing dance class with one of my good friends, and would 'know just how to set everything up. It would be great!! 6.) I am currently involved in the Interact Club, and am holding a'job that I have had for just over a year now. I am also the drum m~ib'r for Dublin High. Next year I will be in some more clubs, I'm not quite sure just which ones though, and I will also play soccer for ekher the Varsity or Junior Varsity team. 7.) Aside from practices for soccer or some community wbrk for Interact, I really don't think that I would have very much trouble with my involvement in the Youth t-':' "ii-='---' ............................ ,fy com~i~7.~:.,..':..:_~..- .. . .-?i":':': - ~- . - :.. ... - ~.:.-?:~.. -'-~..::~..~. -:.~'~.'.. ?.

All of the music would be original and the promotional campaign would blow away any event Dublin has ever seen. I would put posters up every where, announce it in all of the local school bulletins and work with all of the hip-hop radio stations. The M.C., of course, would be Winston Ashby.

I, Jupjeet Kaur have been serving on this particular committee from two years. Let's start from my first Year, well my first year I was just passing by the student activities office and I just glanced over to the wail and there I saw the application for the students who want to serve on this committee and I just thought it would be a nice idea to just try and see ifI can make it. And so I simply filled out the application and turned it in and at that time I had no clue of what I am doing, ail I 'knew was that I am turning in a document which might be my passport into a good road. LUckily I got into this committee and then at the end of my first term Michelle told the committee about the next year's youth committee and I thought again at the most for five minutes and decided to turn in the application again for my next term because I was just so excited about all the things that we had planned for the next year's committee so the next year's committee would.have sore6 idea of what special event they should start from. So once again I turned in the application and once again that beautiful flower was dropped into my mailbox saying that I have made the committee fbr the second term. And now I am all done with my second term and now its time for my third term. So now I am going to turn in the application in again and let's see what happens this time. So that was a little overview of how I found out about the Youth Advisory Committee. 2. Well since I served on this committee for two years I 'know that we (the committee) basically provides input in youth services, assists with implementation and promotion of youth activities and addresses issues that effect youth in the community. We plan events that we think are appropriate for the youth of Dublin. We have done pool parties and dances that have worked very well with the youth. One major event that has brought success to this committee is the Dub Town Jam that takes place in May which is basically a barbecue party with some sort of entertainment like a radio would come down to join the Dublin youth or some dancers. 3. I am interested in serving on this Committee because I have been serving on it from last two years and I just love working with all the students I have worked with to accomplish every goai we have made as a committee. If we taik about me individually of why I like to serve on this committee is because I like to have a forum to help other : students express their concerns and ideas about things to do in and around Dublin.. And also tell u the truth this will really help me with college admissions since I have served on this committee before. 4. Some skills that would make me a strong candidate fbrt the Youth Advisory Committee is that I already know of the rules and regulations for this committee and I think next year since I won't be as busy as last two years I think I will be really be promoting my time in this committee instead of my other curriculum activities because I am done with all the extra work I was doing in my first three years of high school. I think its now time to just pay attention to my studies as well as the city itself. 5. If I can be involved in the planning for one event would be to have a little multi cultural gathering where students who are fi.om different parts of the world will show their dances, games, and bring in a traditional dish of their culture. Since I am Indian, I tike to share my foods, dances and games of my culture with the other races. I am a kind of person who like to expose my traditions and who likes to mix blacks, whites, and the other cultures together because we are all equal and are all human beings. 6. I am currently involved in the Multi-Cultural club, Interact Club, C~iif0mia Scholarship Club, and many other little clubs that don't play a big role at the Dublin High School campus. I play tennis for the school and I am very much involved with the activities and events that go on at my church in Hayward and in Fremont. 7. The above activities, I don't think would effect my time commitment as a youth advisory committee's member. Most of the activities above take place during school time but the church activities take place ~)n Sunday's. So I think I will have a lot of time with this committee. If were talking about how those activities can help in this committee, then I would like to say that we can probably have the Interact Club and the multi-cultural club get together with the youth committee and plan a event that will shake the roads of the city of Dublin. 8. IfI am not selected to this committee then I would like to serve on all of the committees like publicity & promotions, special events planning, teen nights, and the Dub Town Jam because I really want to be involved w/th the City since I live here and this is my land that needs to be taken care of as well as the students need to be taken care of in terms that they need to change their paths from the bad street to the good street which leads to the events of the city of Dublin. 9. The three references I would like to give are: 1) Marie McCmninness (925) 463-1983 ~ 2) Ravinder Sandhu (510) 785-4944 3) Paramjit Singh (510) 887-7040 REC'D JUL 2 1999 YOUTH ADVISORY COMMITi'EE APPLICATION Thank you for expressing an interest in serving on the Youth Advisory Committee. ~:..

Tricia Rutledge Youth Advisory Committee Application ~ 1. i found out about YAC through my friends that were in it and also in leadership such as Anu Gill and Chris Peterson. 2. ! know that YAC plans city wide youth events such as the Dub town Jams, the swing dancing lessons, and a snow trip.' 3: i am interested in serving on the committee because I want to help get these kind of events off the ground, and go back to DUblin High and get the ... students pumped about these sort of fun activities. 4. i feel i have many skills that would make me a strong applicant, i am a leader and am the ASB (Student Body) President at Dublin High School for the 1999-2000 year.

I would not only make posters and announcements, I would go up to people that I think would be interested and talk to them. I also think that there should be some contests and the winner of those would receive a free paid trip, and this i feel would get them to go and to get their friends to go also. An example of a contest could be, a basketball shooting contest at a basketball game half-time and you could charge a dollar for anyone to participate. The winner wo_uid receive the paid trip. 6. The activities that I am currently involved With are leadership, ASB president, mock trial, volleyball, FISH club, and my church youth group. 7.
