The Clarkston Area Youth Assistance is planning a YOUTH RECOGNITION CEREMONY AND DESSERT RECEPTION on
April 22, 2015 at 7:00 pm at Clarkston United Methodist Church. The purpose of this event is to recognize
youth who have had outstanding contributions in volunteerism, behavior, academic achievement, and /or citizenship
without compensation.
We ask you to reflect over the past year and consider youth who have stood out with commendable acts. As you
can see, in addition to recognizing the volunteer efforts of Clarkston’s youth, we are also asking that you
include students who can be recognized for quieter accomplishments. Perhaps the student who never fails to
offer to help clean up after a function, or the student who is quick to befriend a new student. If you know of a
student who has made significant strides in academic or behavioral improvement or a student who consistently
remembers to assist a Senior Citizen in the neighborhood, we would like to be sure to recognize them!
Be assured that all youth nominated from our community will be recognized for their contributions. All those
nominated will receive certificates from CAYA and area dignitaries. The nominees, their families, and the
nominator will be invited to the dessert reception directly following the ceremony. We want the young people in
our community to get the recognition they deserve and, with your help, this can be accomplished.
