Youth Groups for Middle and High School Students

UUFR has a Middle School Youth Group (MSYG) for 6th-8th graders and a High School Youth Group (HSYG) for 9t-12th graders.  These groups meet for social activities and social action work and participate in local and regional retreats and conferences.  Parents of registered teens get information about these programs by email once they have registered for our RE programs. Youth must be registered for RE programs at UUFR in order to participate in Youth Group activities; you can register HERE

Middle School Youth Group

In addition to our Sunday School programs from 11am-noon on most Sundays, middle school students are invited to participate in occasional social events and service activities.  Parents of registered students are informed by email about youth group events, which are coordinated with the support of parent volunteer Krsitin Collins.
