Get Real Teen Calendar
In August 2003, the Partnership launched a teen calendar on the Get Real teen web site. This undertaking is in response to long-standing feedback from Arlington youth, the Task Force on Youth, and a Partnership work group on the need for a comprehensive, up-to-date calendar of activities and events available to Arlington teens. A half-time Teen Calendar Coordinator position was funded through DHS in FY 03 to develop and maintain the calendar. Over the spring and summer, the Calendar Coordinator met with groups of teens and organizations serving youth to design the look and functions of the calendar. The calendar features concerts, sports events, recreation activities, workshops, and other activities available to Arlington youth through the County, Schools, and community organizations.
The Calendar Coordinator is working intensively with teens and youth-serving organizations to market the events calendar. She is also promoting the other resources found on the larger Get Real website, which is a "one-stop" data base of information on ongoing programs and services, hotlines, and employment and volunteer opportunities available to Arlington teens.
