I would like to see additional space devoted to Olympia youth. While I know various programs exist, I believe youth need space where they have some ownership and autonomy. Spaces with adult supervised programs are not going to fill the void which is often filled with a plethora of undesirable activities. A space with pool tables, games art, meeting and video spaces, some sort of food and beverages etc, could draw youth in who see enough of tightly scheduled, adult led activities. With some adult advisors, youth could learn Robert's Rules of Order or other consensus processes and gain a sense of empowerment which is lacking in most youth programs.
