The 10th Annual YouthPower365 Star Dancing Gala will take place in Gypsum at the Vail Valley Jet Center on Tuesday, July 17. “That’s what I love about (YouthPower365’s) work, they’re really dedicated to making sure that all kids’ needs are met.” The showwesee, however, isnot whatfollows ourjolly emcee onthestage of the Tropicananight club, but the doings ofsomeofthe people who frequent the place. “When we looked, we found that the county with the highest percentage of students that were undocumented in the state is actually Eagle County,” he said. He became a state senator in 2009, and in 2012 his ASSET Bill was passed, allowing students not legally entitled to be in the United States to pay in-state tuition at Colorado colleges and universities. Trying to fix that problem is what inspired Johnston to run for Senate. “And then we found out that about half of our seniors were undocumented, which meant they couldn’t go without paying out-of-state tuition,” he said. Our regular emcee and celebrated local author, Sen Dwyer, will host. Years later, working as a high school principal, Johnston was able to help get 100 percent of his school’s seniors accepted into four-year colleges. Published and unpublished writers are encouraged to attend and enjoy a welcoming audience. “I went and knocked on people’s doors in the trailer park and spoke Spanish and asked them if they wanted to come join summer programs,” he said. He helped start an organization that gave summer school opportunities to low income families, mostly Spanish speaking families, in the valley who wanted their kids in summer school, but didn’t have access. “You have real profound inequalities, and real, real need, and what I love about the Vail Valley is people don’t try to ignore that, they don’t try to brush it under the rug, they actually say ‘No, let’s do something about this.'”Īfter graduating high school, Johnston set out to join those people he was inspired by, who were trying to help close the opportunity gap for local kids. ![]() MC, emcee n: initialism (title, name: rap artist) rapero, rapera nm, nf: MC, emcee vi: initialism (act as master of ceremonies) (evento) ser el maestro de ceremonias loc verb : Rachel is a good DJ maybe she can MC too.

The MC at my wedding reception was hilarious. Growing up in Vail, Johnston saw first hand the necessity for groups such as YouthPower365.
