In an article published by the Deseret News, the Church reports that the first YSA stake outside of Idaho and Utah will be organized in Virginia to service the young single adult population attending universities in the area such as Southern Virginia University. The new stake will include seven wards in western Virginia. For more information, please refer to the article that can be accessed
here.
For what it's worth, Edmonton, Canada has six strong YSA wards, and Calgary has seven, so I wonder what it is, beyond the simple numbers, that results in the creation of a YSA stake...
