LATHAM, N.Y. – The New York Credit Union Foundation is not only reaching out to the state's youth but also providing a civics lesson to boot. Billed as "a mobile civic campaign", the Speak Up! NY tour kicks off with a CyberCar, which is a specially equipped "high tech" bus with interactive elements to encourage youth participation in government, and ends with a Youth Town Meeting on PBS stations. The credit union brand logo will be used prominently throughout the 21-city tour, and will be seen in sponsorship messages on the TV broadcasts. Some of the highlights of the tour include the following:

*A billboard-sized viewing screen emerges from the bus at its stops.

*Intensive two-hour seminars help participants prepare a Youth Agenda.
