  3. Youth Facilitation YLF teen participants conducted the Mini YLF event. Twelve teens participated and 7 adults attended. Meko Thompson, AMR/FS Pacific Teen Panel Rep, welcomed the teens to Mini YLF and informed them of the event agenda and logistics. Ms. DeAnn from the PARO Office then gave a brief presentation on the purpose of the Mini YLF leading to the YLF. Adult Military Family Life Consultant, Mr. Loren, facilitated the teen issue piece.

  4. Teen Participants/Teen Issues Meko Thompson Top 3 Issues: 1) More space for teens at the Deborah Hatfield teen center Ryan West 2) More eating places at AMR Kendall Rucker 3) Recruit more teens to participate Brandon Butler at the teen center Joseph Woods Devonte Glover Athena Knight Nia Duran Sierra Cano Sydney Cano Jaylin Banks

  6. Youth Sponsorship/Recreation Ms.. Marge conducted a People Bingo for the participants, led small group discussions on the teens challenges/benefits of moving and an overview of the Youth Sponsorship Program. After participating in the core YLF activities, the teens found time for kayaking, swimming and creating their own fruit smoothie.

  7. Final Thoughts Despite the beach location that may have caused a distraction, the Mini YLF event went well. Some of teens wanted to go swimming soon after we arrived as the water looked so inviting. We were lucky enough to have the next cabana empty where we conducted our issue identification piece. Mini YLF also gave the opportunity to have the middle school teens input on the issues, socialize with the teens and provided a “dry run” for the YLF participants to practice their Character Counts presentation. It was also great that 2 teens from Ft. Shafter participated as well. Everyone had a great time !
