Stay home and Gift wrapping

Not Meeting

This Wednesday, November 25, the UY will not be meeting… enjoy your thanksgiving with your families.

UY Christmas Party - Sunday, December 6 - 5:00pm

The UY will be gathering at the building for this year’s Christmas party.  There are a couple of things I need to inform you on in order for your teen to be prepared to have a jolly ole time.

1. We are having an ugly Christmas sweater contest, so they should suit up with an ugly Christmas themed sweater with no shame.
2. Keeping with what we have done every year, we are asking every UY participant to create their very own homemade ornament.  It will be judged on creativity and overall awesomeness and the winner shall receive a stellar prize.  It will be hung on the tree with years past ornaments.
3. We are going to do a dirty santa exchange again but the gift should be something that they already have and are willing to part ways with… no purchasing anything, just something around the house that others would potentially like to have.

Small Group this week.

This only applies to those in our small group but I thought I would just go ahead and include it so I don't have to bog you down with another email.  This Sunday, November 29, we will be meeting at 6:00pm in the teen room.

Labor, Gather, Spotlight and Ornaments

UY Room Work Day - This Saturday 9:00am

Let me first say that I am fully aware that the length of time the room renovation has taken is completely ridiculous and I apologize for that.  On the bright side, one of the main construction points that has been holding it up finally came together this past week and we are progressing rather nicely. The end is in sight and I need a little help to push it further in that direction. So, any help available Saturday morning would be greatly appreciated.  FYI, paint will be involved so dress accordingly.  

Hang night - This Saturday Nov. 14 - 6:00pm-9:00pm - Building

The teens will be gathering to hang out for a bit Saturday.  If they could bring $3 to help cover food, that would be fantastic.  

Performance Night - This Sunday, Nov. 15 - 6:00pm - CVA

I dropped this out there a while back as a future date but it may have gotten kicked under the rug.  This Sunday evening we are going to spend some good ole fun time together as families.  Several of your teens have agreed to take part in performing for you guys.  We will begin at 6:00pm in the CVA and have a meal together (food provided).  The idea is to allow those who may have the ability to perform in some manner (Sing, Play an instrument, Comedy, Dance, etc) to have a chance to do just that.  I have a feeling this may be rather entertaining so I hope you can join us.

Christmas Party - December 6 - UY Room

For those of you who keep up with dates, you will see that the date has changed.  For those of you who don’t, you can pretend it has been December 6th all along.  More details will be given as we get closer.
