Board agrees application updates for Youth Leadership Award and plans Bronx Zoo tour
Loading...
Summary
Community Board 11 discussed adding a photo‑release waiver and improving the Youth Leadership Award application for minors, clarified age eligibility (14–22), and agreed to propose several dates for a Bronx Zoo group tour in May.
Committee members reviewed next year’s Youth Leadership Award process and agreed to update the application to add a photo‑release waiver, require complete fields (including date of birth and addresses) and offer a Google Form option to make submissions easier to review.
A committee member suggested adding a photo waiver to the application so organizers would not need to obtain permissions after an award is announced; members supported updating the form and noted concerns about minors’ privacy and whether principals should secure parental waivers before submission.
Members also discussed a proposed Bronx Zoo tour for community enrichment. Potential dates proposed included May 1, May 8, the week of May 18 and May 22; the committee agreed to send a group email with proposed dates and confirm availability with the Bronx Zoo once a date is selected.
No formal votes were taken; committee members assigned follow‑ups for form updates and scheduling emails.
