Loong Kong Youth Group Leadership Opportunities

Becoming an officer of the LKYG will allow you to develop leadership, organizational, and interpersonal
skills, and meet many great people.    The Youth Group elects eight officers: President, four chair
people (representing each of the four families) a secretary, and a treasurer. Any member of the Youth
Group may be nominated by another member to serve as an officer. Nominations are held in
November of each year and elections are held in December.  New Youth Group officers begin their
term in January of the following year as they join the new officers of the Loong Kong Association in the
annual initiation ceremony meeting.  
To learn more about how the youth group is governed, please see "Purpose of the Loong Kong Youth
Group" and our By-laws.
