IMPORTANT Conference Changes for Training

Dear BV MUNsters,
     There has been an unforeseen change of training location and schedule due to an insurgence of actual (live and in person) military units at Camp Roberts, we will be training for the Summit Experience at Gunn High School in Palo Alto.
     CA YMCA Youth and Government has promised to pass on any savings of fees due to this location change. Our southern california constituents will prepare on Saturday. WE (BV considered a northern CA delegation) will prepare for Summit on SUNDAY, MARCH 17, 2013! .
