Youth Team September Mixer

This past Peace Dinner our Youth Team took a great Activity and developed it even more. 

Each year, they Youth Team plays People Bingo. Guests are given the opportunity to ask other guests to fill in answers on their bingo board. It could be things like, I have taken been to another country, I have a pet, I have been attending the Peace Dinner from the beginning, etc. Once they get a bingo, the can turn their board in for a prize. This activity is great because it gets everyone up and talking to each other. One of the problems is though, the guests tend to stick to asking the guests at their table and never venture out to meet other guests further away. 

This month, the Youth Team wanted to get guests meeting others from each table in the room, therefore they changed up there questions and the process.

Feel free to use this activity at your next gathering!

Check back next month, to see what our Youth Team does as a mixer this month!

October Youth Team Member of the Month - Julius Johnson




Julius is a senior at North High School and has been on the youth team for several years! He originally joined to help his community! He keeps coming back because he loves the experience he has gained and knows it will be useful. He also likes to volunteer. One thing Julius learned from being on the youth team is that being diverse as far as the people your open to, is important. 

When we asked Julius what his favorite part about being on the youth team is he said, "EVERYTHING!"

Thank Julius for everything you do!! You are a great asset to the youth team!!
