Dear Youth Group members,
February 4th will mark the first anniversary of the Youth Group and we are in the process of collecting information from members for the purpose of commemorating the anniversary. Below is a list of events that members have participated in and another highlighting the various projects undertaken by members over the last year. Your feedback in completing these lists with any events you have participated in or projects you have lead (including publications) would be VERY helpful.
You are also invited and encouraged to send us a quote on what being a member of the group has meant to you. Our plan is to compile these quotes into a product to help us share the successes of the group to highlight your dedication to the CTBT! Please feel free to reply directly to this post or send us your quote at [email protected].
Please also help us by making sure your profile is up to date.
On behalf of the Youth Group support team, thanks for all you've done and we look forward to celebrating the anniversary with you!
Best regards,
Ryan Gonzalez, Youth Group Support Team
