Alumni-Coordinated Gatherings
In true Youth to Youth fashion, everyone’s invited! If you’re interested in getting a group of alumni together Friday or Saturday, choose a location, time, and let us know! We will continue to post alumni gatherings on our website, so you can check back at any time to see the groups who are gathering during this weekend! This will allow alumni to choose the gathering right for them and join in on the fun!
Please note that these gatherings are not hosted by Youth to Youth and will assume everyone will pay their own way (i.e. separate tabs at a restaurant).
To share an alumni gathering or for more information, contact Stephanie Christie at schristie@compdrug.org or 614.224.4506 X 149
