YSES Futures Weekend
19th-21st September 2008
A weekend in Selside for members to discuss the Society’s future.
As a Society we need to ensure that we move with the times and make sure we continue to offer exciting and relevant experiences for young people.
We thought it might be nice to arrange an open weekend for members to come and talk about how they see the Society and which direction it might evolve in the future. Members will have the opportunity to share their views as well as to socialise with other members and reminisce with fellow expeditioners.
At this weekend we will have a chance to look at what YSES does and and to think about how the Society needs to adapt to changing trends in youth culture.
There will be a programme of themed activities and discussions.
Accommodation is available for Friday and Saturday night. The cost will be £10 + Food (TBA) per person. Members are of course welcome to attend for any portion of the weekend they can. If you are interested in attending, please contact the Society Administrator.
Will Patterson is driving a minibus from Leeds to Selside and offers places on a first-come first-served basis. Let us know if you are attending and would like a place on the bus from Leeds.
Non-members are welcome to join prior to attendance. Please download our membership form and return it to the Society office.
