[UPDATE: Canceled] Collective Poetry Is One of the Many Workshops at This Year’s Northcoast Youth Summit

UPDATE:  In light of the concerns about Coronavirus (COVID-19) the Northcoast Youth Summit (NYS) Planning Committee has decided to cancel the 2020 NYS. Our top priority is the health and safety of our community and the public at large. We plan to have a 2021 NYS so please look for updates next year.  

Information from the Northcoast Youth Summit:

This was written in 2017 I AM FROM, written by Amy Terrones, in collaboration with South Fork Students (2017)

I am from a stable roof,

from cold dirt, and hot water.

I am from long school bus drives,

from short bed Toyotas, and windy roads.

I am from fire wood,

from propane tanks, and solar panels.

I am from Redwood trees,

blue rivers, and green gardens.

I am from Strawberry Shortcake,

from fried chicken, and veggie burgers.

I am from fish from the Cove,

from venison from the hill, and pork from the farm.

I am from a loose extended family,

from inspiring people, and a tight community.

I am from the South Fork, the East branch,

from a Northern County, and the West Coast.
