We are excited to announce that there is a new group in our congregation for young adults. The Albany UU Young Adults (Albany UUYA) was created to foster new relationships, support its fellow members, serve the community, and have some fun! The group is geared towards those in their 20s and 30s, but other adults who are interested are welcome too.   

The group plans to have lunch at a nearby establishment immediately following the service of the first Sunday each month. The first one will take place Sunday, May 5 at Iron Gate Cafe,182 Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12210. We will meet in Channing Hall before heading out. Carpooling is available for those interested.

We also plan to have a big recreational event each season. Our spring event will take place following the service on Sunday, May 26, at Thacher State Park, 830 Thacher Park Rd, Voorheesville, NY 12186. We will be going on an easy to moderate hike with beautiful views. Once we get to the end we will have time for reflection, readings, and meditation if desired. We will meet in Channing Hall after the service before heading out. Carpooling is available for those interested. It’s about a 30-minute drive from Albany.

If you would like to sign up to become a member of the Albany UUYA, there is a sign-up sheet in Channing Hall or join our Facebook group Albany UU Young Adults. You can also email Julie Maresco at jmaresco87@gmail.com to sign up or if you have any questions.
