On your mark, get set...GO (General Orientation is Nov. 10th)!

We are getting super excited for next Saturday's KICK OFF to Youthlinc's 2012-2013 Service Year!

General Orientation will be November 10th, from 12:30-5pm at the University of Utah's Orson Spencer Hall (OSH). Click here for driving instructions, and a map. Parking is free on Saturdays, except in the pay lots.

General Orientation is a mandatory meeting for all students accepted into our 2012-13 Service Year, all Volunteer Mentors, and all parents of minors accepted into the Service Year. If there are catastrophic reasons why you cannot attend, you must send a representative. Failure to do so may result in program dismissal.

Students and mentors on the waiting list are strongly encouraged to attend, as we select from these individuals when an accepted participant does not attend General Orientation or drops the program.

Critical information is discussed at our General Orientation. It is also a very enjoyable half day, and you are guaranteed to leave really pumped up about the Service Year! Here's the scoop:
