R-Spot youth walk red carpet at film festival

February 2008

from Harmony Health Family Resource Center

R-Spot, Harmony Health Family Resource Center’s self-named youth group, attended a film festival held by a local environmental group known as the South Yuba River Citizens League on Jan. 11 and 12 in Nevada City. The film festival showed documentaries on various environmental issues, such as basic recycling practices. At the festival, R-Spot also went to a workshop that talked about young people making films, in hopes of getting ideas for when they make their own documentary about the history of Marysville.

The youth group is a place where youth ages 8 to 15 come to learn, develop, plan and serve their community. After a brief hiatus due to the holidays, R-Spot is now meeting again on Tuesday evenings from 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the Allyn Scott Youth Center in Marysville. The Youth Center has pool tables, a big screen TV, couches and arcade games, as well as archery and dance classes in the works. For more information about R-Spot, please call Liz York or Gloria Figuhr at the Resource Center at (530) 742-5049.

Harmony Health Family Resource Center/R-Spot youth group is a Fall 2007 Program Improvement grantee.
