Default Gardening club - activity ideas needed!!!


"Kay wrote in message after me and
"Jane wrote in message
Thanks, everyone, for the replies.
Gives us a couple of new ideas to try out )
Wish us luck?


Oh I do, we have tried and tried to get some of the youth involved in our
new park that is to be built soon but they just never turn up to any
meetings. The Park committee are going to gatecrash the youth club in a
couple of weeks just to try to get some input from them, it's seems it's

the
only way.


yes, it will be. On the whole, youngsters don't feel at home in
meetings. You need to go to them .. besides, it's a good way to
demonstrate your good faith and real intention to take their ideas on
board.

And remember, they are subject to more outside constraints like we are -
we never have to miss a meeting because our mother has demanded we tidy
our bedroom ;-)


Trouble is, we want the ones whose mothers couldn't care if they tidied
their rooms, couldn't care if they are in or not by midnight at 12 years
old, or what they are doing, just as long as they keep out of her hair.
They are the ones that are going to wreck this Park and we want them on
board to try to prevent it. But how?
