The following Canyons School Distric students are signed up to go to Legislature Day(there are others, but this is just a message for Canyons):

2. Kaylee Lavery

3. Sara Wilcox

Susan Edwards of the District has asked the following:

We are working on excusing all of the students on Wednesday, without their parents having to contact the schools. However, our Risk Management has made a request that has not previously been made. They need a note signed by each parent that says:

“I understand the school district will not be providing transportation to the Youth Council event on January 26, 2011 and that my child will be riding with _____________________________.”

Is it possible to have this filled out prior to Wednesday? You may even ask each parent to send a handwritten note with on that day. Thank you!

Susan

These Attendees will need to meet at City Hall on January 26 at 6:30am in order to arrive at the Sheraton Hotel for the 7am check-in and breakfast for the Youth Council portion of Legislature Day. We will all be able to ride in the Draper City Van to and from the conference. We will spend the entire day at the Sheraton Hotel, listening to speakers and attending workshops on personal and public finance. Lunch will be at 12:15pm and our city officials will join us then. We will listen to one more speaker after which we will either go home at 2:00pm (and return home at 3 p.m.) or head up to the capital for a tour (and return home around 5 p.m.) The tour depends on Greg Hughes’ availability in the afternoon. He usually does the tour with us on capitol hill in the mornings when he is not in meetings but since we are not going to the capitol, his assistant, Megan, is checking on the time. That is what I have for now. I will update you with the arrival home time based on what I hear from Greg Hughes’ assistant.
Thank you,

How to remove yourself from the blog!!!

I had someone ask how to remove themselves from this blog. This wasn't easy to figure out, so I thought I would post this for everyone.

You need to login to your account (username is probably the email address where you are receiving the posts.)
Go to Dashboard (link is in upper right-hand corner)
Then go to settings (link is right there)
Then switch to the Permissions tab (upper left corner)

Then you will see the option to remove yourself from the blog.

I hope this helps!
