Conference of Young Alaskans 2009 - Delegates Selected
The 50th anniversary of Alaska’s statehood provides all Alaskans with a wonderful opportunity to reflect on the changes that have taken place since statehood. Particularly for the youth of Alaska, the anniversary year provides an opportunity to address the issues of today and create plans for the next 50 years that reflect the perspective of Alaska’s young citizens. The conference steering committee has selected the fifty-five delegates to the Conference of Young Alaskans 2009 in Girdwood, Alaska. The group will be representing over 25 communities, a diversity of ethnic backgrounds, and a cross section of ages. We would like to thank all the applicants to COYA 2009 for their interest in improving the future of our state. The prosperity and well being of this great land is the responsibility of us all.
