Title: 2008 Youth Summit
Post by: 029 on August 21, 2008, 11:19:46 PM
Hi all,

anybody on here going to the CFS youth Summit next weekend at hahndorf??? my self and one other from my unit have been invited to attend.

I feel this is a good idea of the cfs to do this and also inviting other agencys to attend after all we all want to get the job done right.

Yeah i went.

In short it was Great i enjoyed every bit. Thanks again to Flic and the VMB and eveyone else that helped
We discussed many issues and sent them on with Euan and he is taking them to COAC etc.

These issues ranged from Volunteer recruitment to equipment and many in between things. however i won;t got saying every detail at this point as many things are just ideas and we don;t want to make the wrong assumptions.

It was a fantastic weekend. Lots of enthusiam and empowerment which will hopefully be listened to. The support of Euan (or Ewin as it was spelt in room 2) and the CFSVA will hopefully mean things will get off the ground.

This is something that I will certainly be pushing to look at within my service, and possibly in future years a sector wide approach.
