Introducing the New Youth City Council

We are excited to once again have an amazing group of youth on our Youth City Council, otherwise known as the YCC. The YCC meets twice each month to discuss, plan, and implement a variety of activities to benefit the community. They also engage in fundraisers throughout the year to raise money for the Santa’s Workshop program. For this program, the YCC accepts donations and uses fundraising monies to purchase gifts for struggling families in our community during the Christmas season. The YCC hosted the annual Pumpkin Walk and Haunted Creek on October 27,and it was a big success. On Saturday, November 15, the YCC is hosting our first Cedar “Hill”billy Day at Heritage Park from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. There will be country-themed games, and the YCC will be accepting canned goods for donation to the local food bank. Please visit our website and social media sites often to keep updated on additional YCC events.
