Behind the Scenes
Back on Wednesday of this week, the City of Fort St John Youth Advisory Council hosted an event at Northern Lights College called Youth Changing Tomorrow. The conference aimed to inform and provide mentorship to local youth about different career paths and find new members for YAC’s panel. A group of local professionals were there to answer questions from attending students and our very own News Director Tre Lopushinsky was on the panel! Here is what he had to say about the experience:
“I had a lot of fun speaking with other local professionals and some of the interested students. They asked very engaging questions and seemed generally curious. Even during the panel, I was surprised at how many kids weren’t on their phones and actually listening. At that age, I’d be sleeping lol.”
We always appreciate the opportunity to get involved with the community and to help inspire the next generation of journalists! Thanks to the Youth Advisory Council for having us!
