Sports Night

The EYC is looking for guys who are interested in our Sports Nights!

If you or another member you know are interested in Sports Night, please let Sylvia know. Right now eight guys are interested in keeping this going but if more people don't sign up, we might have to cancel Sports Night at the EYC.

Please express your interest asap!

EYC Closed: Girls Night Postponed

Due to the weather, the EYC was forced to close its doors today.

As you know, we were hoping to have our Girls Night this evening but the weather wasn't willing to cooperate. Since the centre is shut down, we have to push back our first Girls Night to next Wednesday. Hopefully mother nature and old man winter will be nicer to us then.

Sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.

Extended EYC Tuesday Hours, Girls Night & More

Just a couple of notes for youth centre members:

The EYC will be open until 9 p.m. tonight so if you'd like to come play some games, watch some movies or get some food, we'll be around to serve you.

Tomorrow night will also mark the first Girls Night for female members. After introductions, Sylvia will be taking down ideas for future Girls Nights and then those in attendence will be able to watch Sisterhood Of The Travelling Pants. EYC will also be having Sports Nights on the same evening from 6-8 p.m.

Hope to see you there!

Exams Are Done! (And An Introduction)

So for those of you who don't know, I am the "PR Officer" here at the Essex Youth Centre.

I usually work 9-1 every Monday and today is no exception. What's different though is that exams are done and this place is busier than usual. Ping pong games are being played on the table behind me as I write this. I think some other members are watching Lost on the TV -- it's on very loud and that surround sound is causing the room to vibrate at times.

Rock Band was being played earlier: Basically, this place has some electricity going on today and you can tell that exams are done.

Up And Running!

Alright so the EYC blog is up and running!

In the future we're hoping to blog live from events at the EYC and also have member contributions to this section of the site. The main purpose of this is to give a more candid look at what's going on here so hopefully we can provide that for you. The blog will also contain updates about events, any breaking news and stuff that just doesn't fit on the EYC website.

There's supposed to be an anime movie marathon today. People are starting to come in but no movies are on yet.

Guess we'll see what happens.

Edit: The Anime Movie Marathon was postponed to another day. Once details are ironed out, they'll be posted here.
