[Cynnabar] What is a Youth Officer? You don't have to work with kids to be one!

[Stephanie Ceara via Barony]

Greetings!

At last weeks meeting the importance of the Youth Office was stressed. Some
of you may say, "I don't want to work with kids!" Well, good news! You
don't have to!

This office is importance because it keeps our youth program alive and
families coming. It would be a shame to loose this now.

It is also important to have someone to help the barony stay up to date on
the laws and policies that come out in the Midrealm and Society.

So what are the duties of a Youth Officer? I've made up a detail list that
you can find here and on Cynnabar's website.

Duties and Responsibilities of a Youth Officer

   - Keep the Barony up to date on law and policy changes that happen
   within the Kingdom and Society.
   - Upkeep the current Baronial Youth Officer webpage
   - Provide young members with educational opportunites and engage them in
   SCA activities suitable for their ages.
      - While you can be, you do not have to be the Coordinator that works
      with youth and runs youth activities at
events/practices/meetings (It is up
      to you where and when youth activities occure by contacting the proper
      people holding the event/practice/meeting)
      - Youth point can be ran several ways as long as a few simple rules
      are covered.
         - A background checked person acts as the Youth Coordinator of the
         specific event.
         - There must be TWO unrelated adults there at all times.
      - Examples of what you can do to manage activties at events:
         - Be the Youth Coordinator and run all activities that happen in
         at youth point.
         - Be the Youth Coordinator and have two adults signed up at
         specific times to over see youth at Youth point
         - Be the Youth Coordinator and ask people to teach specific topics
         and bring a second adult with them. (This format is ran in
the way arts and
         science classes would be held for adults.)
         - Have someone else with a background check run all activities
         that happen in at youth point.
         - Have someone else with a background check have two adults signed
         up at specific times to over see youth at Youth point
         - Have someone else with a background check ask people to teach
         specific topics and bring a second adult with them. (This
format is ran in
         the way arts and science classes would be held for adults.)
      - Enlist the aid of other group officers, members, and others to
   support planned activities.
