feature story

Citizenship
By Garth J. Christie, CMC

The Redford Township Youth Commission has been around for a long time. I was a member as a youth about 40 years ago. Back then, the grown ups ran the show. It went dormant for about a decade until I resurrected it with a new purpose. The kids would be in charge with adult supervision of course.

The Youth Commission provides an opportunity for the best and brightest from Redford Union and Thurston to come together to plan and execute various projects. The grown ups are there only to advise and assist since the new mission of the Youth Commission is to provide leadership growth opportunities for kids, not exploit them.

In the recent past, the Youth Commission has sponsored contests such as; skateboard competitions, battle of the bands and similar events. They raised funds for these programs through car washes and the like. These fun events were positive in that they kept kids from trouble and brought Panthers and Eagles together.

Youth Commissioners are on the cusp of adulthood and very smart. They look for new challenges. So, this year, the Youth Commission is sponsoring a Youth Leadership Symposium for 100 potential youth leaders, 50 Eagles and 50 Panthers on March 17th. Classes will be held on bullying, conflict resolution, staying focused in your senior year and others. The youth will hire some professional speakers with the funds they raised and feed the participants with snacks and lunch from DiMaggio’s Bakery on Six Mile. Also, the kids will team up and teach some of these breakout classes themselves. After all, they have been in the youth directed Youth Commission Leadership Program for two years. They want to teach what they’ve learned to other kids.

These kids are also smart enough to know that car washes and cookie sales would not pay for this event. They wanted to learn how to raise money like adults do.

I can’t name all the dignitaries who contributed to this cause, but if they got their check in on time, they will be listed on the official event T-shirt. Nevertheless, I want to thank The Commission on Children’s’ Issues, Steve DiMaggio, Darby Trapp, St. Valentine’s Men’s Club and the Redford Township Democratic Club for their extra generous support.

Bad kids get so much of our attention from the cops, judges, counselors, parole officers, et cetera. In reestablishing the Youth Commission, I wanted to draw resources to our best and brightest. Thank you all who have supported this concept and the Youth Commission.
