Hi Lynn,

We have one classroom dedicated to our youth program and is used as a
workspace and storage space.  We also have a couple of computers for the
teens' use located in our office area.  This is where the teens tend to
hang out before and after shifts.  We have more than 100 active teens
every year, consisting of 60-75 new recruits and 40 "alumni"  We do use
two other classrooms on a regular basis for our programming, but those
spaces are shared with the rest of the education department.  The size
of the classroom is about the size of Classroom A at MoS...We have put
in a request for more space for our program because when most of the
teens are here on Saturdays, it is very crowded!

:)

Nina

Hi all,
We are doing some review work on our youth programs here and I would be 
very interested to know from those of you with ongoing youth programs if

you have a dedicated space to house your programs, or for youth to drop 
into before or after shifts - and how many youth this serves.  Also if 
you could include approximate size of the space that would be great - 
Thanks!
Lynn Baum
