Join the Force Entering our thirteenth year as an established organization, it's inspiring to reflect on
the impact that the Eagle River Youth Coalition (ERYC) has fostered in our community. Along with community partners, ERYC has been able to identify behaviors, needs and trends of local youth and to mobilize the community around those needs. The most recent Healthy Kids Colorado Survey local data sets have just arrived and ERYC is eagerly dissecting results to reveal where local youth currently stand on integral behavioral issues. Utilizing this data, The Coalition has worked collaboratively to ensure that enriching, unique services are offered to youth and families, and that they are

accessible to those who need them most. ERYC has helped to build capacity among community agencies through coordination of professional development opportunities, collaborative fundraising ventures and social media. Finally, you can count on ERYC to host lively affairs. From parent education seminars and Youth Leaders Council retreats, to the family-friendly Fall Pumpkinfest and 4/20 anti-drug rally, to the delicious Valley Tastings: Food for Youth, ERYC and our partners appreciate a good time. None of these successes would be possible without the strong partnerships among community agencies, youth, parents and businesses.

YouthLeaderSpotlight:WadeTicer
High school hallways have a tendency to breed stereotypes and place students in specific clicks. From your first week of freshman year, you could be labeled as a jock, bookworm, thespian, tech- nerd, outcast, etc. These social pressures manifest insecurities and social injustice. It is normal for an impressionable underclassman to internalize these labels and get stuck sitting at the same stale cafeteria table throughout his/her entire high school experience. Wade Ticer, a junior at Eagle Valley High School chooses not to succumb to these stereotypical labels. Upon first introduction, his sturdy six foot build may give the impression that he is simply a well-spoken jock. Combine that with the fact that Ticer was the only 9th grade student to secure a spot on the varsity baseball team, let alone start at the 1st base position. This would reinforce the stereotype, but as he begins to speak, it is apparent that there are greater depths to this compassionate, sincere and smart young man. Academically, he is performing at the top of his class, earning a 4.3 grade point average. He has submerged himself into the student body and is a dedicated member of both DADD (Devils Against Destructive Decisions) and EVHS Booster Club. Outside of school, he offers his freetime coaching and mentoring aspiring young baseball players. During the summer, he umpires for local youth programs and is pretty lenient with his 'Strike' calls. He is a member of the local Young Life chapter and volunteers at the Eagle Salvation Army.
