February 27, 2009 (El Cajon)--The City of El Cajon Teen Coalition presents a "Youth of the Year" Award to recognize those who go above and beyond in serving their community either through their leadership abilities and/or their quality or level of community service in El Cajon. Leadership can be defined as those individuals who consistently facilitate a team vision and help guide others toward success. Community service helps better the community through the value and impact of those served. Final awards will be based on dedication, commitment beyond what may be required by school, and demonstrated impact on the community.
Two awards will be given to eligible students: one award for a student currently at the middle school level (grades 6th--8th), and the other for a student currently at the high school level (grades 9th--12th). All nominations are reserved for youth who are residents of the City of El Cajon. Those chosen will be recognized and awarded for service accomplished within the calendar year previous to the nomination period. We are currently awarding work that has been accomplished between January 1 and December 31, 2008.
Applications will be available at all schools with eligible participants, City of El Cajon Recreation Centers and on the City's website at www.ci.el-cajon.ca.us. All applications must be received by March 27, 2009.
