Teen Volunteer Gathering

Teen Action Group (TAG) meetings are held September through June and not held during the summer. This is not an official TAG meeting! 

We are holding this unofficial teen volunteer gathering so that TAG members can keep in touch while we have been socially distancing for the past several months. Students who are not currently members of TAG may attend! Keep in mind that TAG will officially resume in September 2020. Visit the Teen Volunteering page to learn more about TAG.
