YOUTH COMMUNITY OUTREACH OFFICER

ELECTIONS 2012-2014

Two years!

Good luck to all those

running!

WHAT IS REQUIRED OF THE PEOPLE RUNNING

They understand what is required of them once

they get elected (next slide)

They are truly interested in both YCO and China.

They want to serve for two years (unless they’re

graduating).

They are responsible.

WHAT IS REQUIRED OF THE ELECTED OFFICERS

Recommended: They go to Henan, China for the

service trip (more information on that later)

Mandatory: They go to 3 outings in the next 6

months

They are truly interested in making the club better

They are willing to lead and/or take on roles

WHY 2 YEARS?

YCO’s elections are for TWO YEARS because we

want CONTINUITY and SUSTAINABILITY.

However, there is a VERY BIG CHANCE (hint hint)

that we will open more officer positions NEXT YEAR

(2012-2013)

TREASURER

Knows how much money we have

Collects receipts for places we spent money on

Makes an accurate account of every single dollar

we gain/spend

As treasurer, I can contribute

experience and ideas. As this

is a new club, I think having a

couple of people who have

experience is essential.  As

treasurer of another club, I not

only know how to do the job,

but I can contribute essential

ideas to help it run smoothly.

DEEPTI VARATHAN, 10

I am very good with numbers

and money in general. When I

was younger one of the math

assignments was where you

had a check book to buy

things in class with and at the

end of the year you had to

balance the checkbook. Mine

was balanced perfectly.

KITTY LALWANI, 9

I am the best candidate for

treasurer for many reasons. One

is I’m a good techie. I plan to

keep all receipts and

expenditures accounted for

digitally on my computer. And

the main reason is that I love

money. And no money will be

going anywhere without my

permission.

CHRIS PANG, 9

SECRETARY

Takes many notes

Reports during the next meeting of what we

discussed/accomplished the previous meeting and

during outings

As secretary, I'm sure I can

bring a little organization into

the club. I take good, through

notes, and I can make sure to

have them with me at the next

meeting. I can also be sure to

be at every meeting, including

the officer only meetings.

Thank you!

YE JIN JEON, 9

As the secretary of this club, I

will fully support the Club

needs and buy any necessary

decor for this times event

"Chinese New Year". Posters

with good prosperous sayings,

some lanterns and even some

good old Chinese candy for

the new year.

SHREYA DOSHI, 9

COMMUNICATIONS DIRECTOR

Contacts the SAS office to tell them to put meeting

reminders on the bulletin when necessary

Communicate with Pertapis, 18 Chefs etc. other

outing sites

Sends out email reminders to members

I can contribute by contacting

members with reminders and the

office to put out reminders on

the bulletin when needed. I'm

very neat, organized and

responsible. I understand that

this is a big responsibility and I

will commit all time and effort

that I can to this club. Thank

you! 

AIKO VAPOR, 9

I think I would make the perfect

communications director, as I

speak very clearly and make

things easy to understand. I have

loads of time on my hands to put

meeting reminders on the

bulletin when necessary

communicate with Pertapis, 18

Chefs, Sends out email reminders

and any other simple jobs!

TOORJO MISHRA, 9

SERVICE HOUR DIRECTOR

Makes an accurate account of the service hours

each member has in the club

Attend (mandatory, though there may be

occasionally one exception) all outings and meetings

If I am elected Service Hour

responsible in attending all

meetings and outings, including

the service trip this summer. I

will dedicate however much time

will be necessary in order to

maintain an accurate account of

the amount of service hours club

members have contributed.
