Bishops--Please announce the STAKE YOUNG MEN'S CONFERENCE IN SACRAMENT

BISHOPS AND YOUNG MEN'S PRESIDENTS,

President Ball has requested that the Stake Young Men's Conference be announced from the pulpit in Sacrament meetings this Sunday.

He also suggests listing it in the Sacrament Program, if you would like.

THE THEME FOR THIS CONFERENCE IS TEMPLES.
OUR FOCUS IS HELPING THE YOUNG MEN SET A GOAL TO BE MARRIED IN THE TEMPLE AS A RETURNED MISSIONARY.

PRESIDENT PETERSON WILL BE LEADING A DISCUSSION ON THIS SUBJECT.
HE MAY ASK FOR COMMENTS FROM YOU.

TWO QUESTIONS TO PONDER:

1. WHY SHOULD A YOUNG MAN SET TEMPLE MARRIAGE AS A RETURNED MISSIONARY, AS HIS GREATEST GOAL?

2. IN YOUR OPINION, WHAT KEEPS YOUNG MEN WHO ARE RAISED IN THE CHURCH, FROM REACHING THIS GOAL?

BASKETBALL TOURNAMENT MEDICAL FORMS--PLEASE PRINT AND BRING TO SCOUTS TONIGHT!!

Please help us get ready for the Basketball Tournament coming up this Friday and Saturday.

THERE IS A BASKETBALL PRACTICE TOMORROW [2013-02-20] NIGHT AT THE CHATSWORTH BUILDING 7:00p.m.-8:30P.M.

IF THE YOUTH WANT TO PLAY IN THE TOURNAMENT, THEY MUST BE AT THIS PRACTICE.

If any young men really want to play and are committed to going, but can't make the practice on Wednesday night, they need to call our coach, Chris Wilkerson, and talk to him before Wednesday's practice.

Chris Wilkerson xxx-xxx-xxxx

Please help us get all the forms filled out by each young man and signed by a parent and their unit leader. If they could show up to the practice with everything filled out and signed, that would be great.

The forms that need to be filled out are:

-- PARENTAL OR GUARDIAN PERMISSION AND MEDICAL RELEASE
-- ACCIDENT WAIVER, RELEASE OF LIABILITY, AND MEDICAL RELEASE (This must be signed by the young man, a parent, and unit leader or a substitute designated by the unit leader)
-- PLAYER'S CODE OF CONDUCT [last page] (this is the last page of the document titled 2013 VV Bball Tourney Registration Information

If you can print these out and give them out at Scouts tonight, that would be very helpful.

We are also looking for rides. If there are any parents interested in going to watch the boys play and would be able to take a few of the guys with them, please let us know.

We also might have enough players to have two teams. Depending on how many young men show up to the practice or call Brother Wilkerson, we might create a second team. If we create another team, we will need TWO ADULTS TO BE WITH THAT TEAM.

One adult to be the coach

One adult to help at the scoring table

If you or anyone you know of is interested in being a coach, a scorekeeper, or a driver, please let us know.

THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR HELP
