UN Simulation for Parents, Teachers, Alumni, Friends of Civitas, and other
[so-called] Grown-ups!
When and where?
Friday, October 24, 2003
7:00 - 10:30 p.m.
Clayton Community Center
$15 per person; Tables of 8 for $80.
What's it about?
Adults are always asking us to explain what the heck we do at UN simulations.
Here's a great way to find out and have fun as you:
Debate UN-style resolutions [serious and silly].
Play current-events games; try our trivia quiz.
Help raise money for Civitas conferences, scholarships and other special events.
Who's it for?
It's for parents, grandparents, adult siblings and family friends, plus alumni
of Civitas programs, teachers, and any other people out there who think Civitas
programs are worth supporting. This event will combine somewhat serious debates
on UN-style resolutions with a serious dose of silliness.
How will it work?
Each delegate selects a country to represent. [Register in advance to reserve
your country, or pick one at the door.] We'll supply UN-style resolutions for
discussion, modifying and voting. We'll have two serious resolutions and one or
two silly resolutions.
Sign up now!

Help us make it a success!
We're counting on friends like you to help us recruit participants and make it
fun for everyone. Here's how:
Distribute sign-up forms to "grown-ups" who might be interested.
Send us email addresses of folks you know who might enjoy this event.
Student volunteers needed! Students, we need you to staff this event!
We're turning the tables, with "grown-ups" as delegates and students as staff.
We need volunteers to be ticket-takers, game referees, audience-participation
helpers, refreshment servers, t-shirt tossers, setter-uppers and cleaner-uppers,
too.
Decorum! Decorum!
Make it your own party!
Come alone, bring a partner, or assemble a group of friends and reserve a table
for eight in advance. We'll supply soft drinks, coffee and light snacks. Feel
free to bring additional snacks for your group, or to share with other Friends
of Civitas at your table. [Clayton Community Center does not permit alcoholic
beverages.]
