00:11.979 --> 00:14.870
- We've got about an hour's
worth of speeches, so...

00:14.870 --> 00:16.940
- [Narrator] The Yokota
Air Base Officers' Club

00:16.940 --> 00:20.240
hosted the President's
Volunteer Service Award ceremony

00:20.240 --> 00:22.200
where Yokota's youth were recognized

00:22.200 --> 00:24.090
for their community service.

00:24.090 --> 00:26.910
- I'm just glad that it was
such a turnout for these youth

00:26.910 --> 00:29.620
that actually really put
a lot of work and effort

00:29.620 --> 00:32.770
into everything they did with
their volunteer service hours.

00:32.770 --> 00:34.470
I think a lot of people take for granted

00:34.470 --> 00:37.620
the fact that they're kids, still doing

00:37.620 --> 00:40.920
major things in their community
even if they're overseas.

00:40.920 --> 00:42.520
- [Narrator] At the end of the ceremony,

00:42.520 --> 00:45.400
the new Yokota Youth of
the Year was announced.

00:45.400 --> 00:47.570
- By expanding on the
interests I already have,

00:47.570 --> 00:50.270
and gaining leadership
positions within those,

00:50.270 --> 00:53.800
it really makes it so
that I'm not working,

00:53.800 --> 00:55.483
I'm just doing what I love to do.

00:56.390 --> 00:57.650
- [Narrator] After the ceremony,

00:57.650 --> 01:01.147
the award recipients celebrated
their accomplishments.
