The Town of Chapel Hill Parks & Recreation invites youth in grades 9-12 to join the Chapel Hill Youth Council.
The Youth Council provides an opportunity for young people to participate in local government and to learn skills in leadership and responsibility. Members will work with other groups to carry out programs that benefit youth as well as the community and to represent the youth of Chapel Hill in civic matters.
The Youth Council will facilitate communication between youth and local government officials and will sponsor two service projects each year. The council will hold hour-long biweekly meetings during the school year.
Council members must attend school in the Chapel Hill-Carrboro district, including public, private, home school or charter school. For more information, contact Liz Carter at 968-2784.
