Youth Legislative Day....

An event is being held Friday, October 13th 2006 where actual Michigan students are "given the opprtunity to introduce bills, hold committee meetings and debate actual legistlation on the Floor of the House of Representatives. Through participation in these activities, youth from around the state have gained a heightened awareness of public policy in an effort to stimulate their further interest in civic involvement. This year's event will focus on a variety of issues affecting youth (i.e. health, education, after-school programs, etc.), and will take place ... at the State Capitol Building in Lansing."

I think this would be a totally excellent event to take part in for VolunTEENS from Albion. So, more discussion on this event will take place at our first meeting for the Fall on Saturday September 9th. Remember, there will be pizza!

Because of a the registration deadline for Youth Legislative Day, we must determine who is going to the Capitol in our September meeting.

Who would want to miss going to Lansing on ... Friday THE THIRTEENTH of October?

This could be you guys on that day:



So DO NOT miss this awesome chance to do what our founding fathers did so bravely: argue amongst themselves for hours upon end =)

Peace,
