KYA Kentucky Youth Assembly - December 2011
DeSales sent 14 students to the KYA Assembly in December.  At the assembly they wrote a Bill to amend current cancer research laws (written and presented by Andrew Hurt, Ryan Stevens, and Tyler Rucker) which passed both the House and Senate almost unanimously.  Due to discrepancies between state and federal laws, the Bill was vetoed by the Assembly’s Governor.  The team worked hard to get enough votes to overturn the veto but fell just short on the last day.

The team received the following awards:

• Best New Delegation - an award for the positive contribution and success our students have had after only been participating for less than a year in YMCA events.

• Delegation of Excellence - an award given to delegations who got all their paperwork in on time, conducted themselves respectfully, and did not have any disciplinary issues or controversies during the convention

• Tyler Olges - outstanding delegate award

• Cameron Brothers - outstanding speaking award

• Andrew Hurt - outstanding speaking award
