The Positive Place for Kids

 Youth of the Year 

Karrin Smith is the Black Canyon Boys & Girls club Youth of the year for 2007.  Karrin along with 3 other members for the title of Sr. youth of the year.  All members competing had to design a visual aid that expressed what club meant to them as well as do an interview with some of the clubs board members.  After being selected as the finalist for Olathe, Karrin had to give a speech along with the finalist for Montrose Jordan Largent at our annual Youth of the Year award ceremony.  An overall Youth of the Year winner was selected by a panel of judges based on these speeches.  

As our 2007 Youth of the Year Karrin got to compete at the state level as one of nine finalist across Colorado.  She was able to attend a session at the State Capital, and attended a lunch with many of Colorado's legislators.  Adam's State College offered a minimum of a $500 college scholarship to the nine finalist if they wished to attend Adam's State College.
