A Senior's Thoughts on YMSL
by Aiden Baugh

Through my four years of being in YMSL, I have had numerous beneficial experiences. I am glad that I have been able to help my community so much with this group. I have had so much fun helping at places such as CYO. At CYO, I was able to meet and help the kids at the day camp. I will always value the connections and memories I made - over a fishing pole and a bag of Cheetos.

The monthly meetings were also very beneficial to me - sometimes long but beneficial. I was able to meet with all of the boys and learn about various life skills. One of the things that we learned was interview do’s and don'ts. It was obviously helpful because later that week I interviewed for a job and I got it - and I still have it! As you can see, YMSL has had a very rewarding impact on my life and I believe that every boy should be involved with YMSL.
