                  Chaperone a Youth Center Night

     In order for the Youth Center to be open, we need two adults each night to chaperone the junior high students.   If you are interested in chaperoning, contact the youth center coordinator, Steve Friederich, at sfriederich@mchsi.com, or call the VCC Office.  You will need to attend an orientation session at the Youth Center which is located above the VCC Office in Downtown Elgin. During that time, chaperones will familiarize themselves with the youth center facilities and youth center rules. 

Youth Center Policy

· Call a parent (with a sponsor present as a witness) to get permission

 IF a student attempts to call a parent and cannot reach them, they will NOT be allowed to leave the Youth Center Grounds. 

 ALL students must have parental consent to leave Youth Center grounds during active Youth Center hours (7:00-10:00) that are not regular pick-up times.  NO EXCEPTIONS!  (ex. “Joe” comes with “Andy” to the youth center. Joe cannot get a hold of his parents, and even though he will be picked up by Andy’s parents, he still must have parental consent to leave before 10:00p.m.)

 This policy has been put in place to unsure the safety of our youth, if you have an questions or concerns please feel free to contact staff.
