Youth in Action (YIA) Afterschool Program Prepares Volunteers for January Opening
Youth in Action, the afterschool program which had its beginnings in the Columbus Horizons Grant, has been preparing volunteers for the opening on January 5.
On December 5, volunteers were offered a CPR course taught by Woody Hover at the Columbus Fire Hall. Youth development was the topic of the volunteer orientation on December 16.
Registration forms have gone out to families through the Columbus School. The afterschool program is being designed for youth from grades 2 through 4 and will be held at the Columbus Evangelical Church, which is allowing YIA to use their facility free of charge. January 5, 2009, is the target starting date for the program.
