Corporation (Youth Encouraged to Succeed, Inc.) made a presentation to the Green River City Council at last Wednesdays meeting. Y.E.S. Inc. would like to acquire property in Green River to build a group home facility to house from 15 to 25 youths from the ages of 12 to 18. It would be a minimum security facility that will house some emotionally disturbed, abused and violent children from around the state. The goal ofthe organization is to turn the kids around and make them viable members ofa community. The would be given counseling and taught daily living skills. They also would work in the commufull or part-tim- e nity and attend school Dooley stated, We are not planning on running these kids into the public school system in Green River to start out with. They will be, taught on site at the. facility to begin with and if the schools in Green River can handle the added population they will gradually be enrolled. The owners of Y.E.S. Inc. have 37 years of combined experience working with troubled youth. The youths that will reside in this facility will go ' "" jz through a screening process to ensure they will qualify for this type ofrehabilitation program. We will be housing some really troubled children, but we dont want to take a child that will be a danger to themselves or the other residents of the facility. This is a group home, not a jail I would like to be able to say we will never have a problem, we will never have a resident ofthe facility escape, but it is the nature ofthe facility that says I cant make these kind of promises toyou, stated Dooley. Mayor Judy Ann Scott and the members of the council decided to have a public hearing on Oct. 29, at 7 p.m. in the John Wesley Powell Museum, to give the residents of the city a chance to hear more about this proposed facility and to ask questions and give their input. t - winners The winners of the Shop Emery County Campaign for the week ofOctober 16th are: Roland Durfee, gift certificate from Marlenes Shape Up Plus; Earlene Allen, $25 Furniture & Appliance; Chris Hardman, $25 gift cer- tificate from Stewarts Thriftway; Jeff' Tuttle, $25 gift certificate from Carrens Creative Ceramics; Arvin Hansen, $10 gift certificate from Thrif-- Market; and George Heiniger; $25 Castle Valley p -in Ferron, for the week The winners of October 23rd are: Kitty Larsen, $25 gift certificate from Gillys; Denise Christmas, $25 gift certificate from J & D Automotive; Kelly Olsen, $25 gift certificate from Castle Chiropractic Center; Sam Wilbanks, $25 gift certificate from Ferron T giftcer-tificatefro- m Airmen of Note The Premier Jazz Ensemble of the United States Air Force Washington, D.C Co-O- - Other actions taken include: f The council approved to increase the scope ofthe Master Plan to include mapping and aerial photography.
