On September 13th we welcomed our new fall BEETS (Band of Environmentally Educated and Employable Teens). Three youth stayed on from the summer: Anija Gaino, Lyric Lewis and Ezekikel McCarter. Our new additions are: Chris Collier, Jasmine Dean, Erika Espinosa, Mayra Fuentes, Dwayne Hodges, Shawnee Johnson, and Richard Lopez. A great group of youth leaders!
It was a tough decision to pick from a great pool of youth, but fortunately our three returning summer youth were the interviewers. They were a very intimidating three-some!
The first meeting was in Koshland Garden. Here is an ice-breaking from the first meeting:
