Senate's elves
Senator
Georgia Gardner is inviting Whatcom County teens to be a
part of state government this year.
The senator still has positions open for legislative pages
in the upcoming session, which convenes January 14 and is
scheduled to end March 14.
Pages help legislators and staff transport documents, respond
to requests on the Senate floor and present the flag during
Senate floor sessions. Students 14 to 16 years old page
for one week, following a Sunday orientation. Housing is
not provided but there is assistance with finding a host
family and pages earn $35 for each day worked.
For more information and an application call Garners
office at 360/786-7682 or email Gardner at gardner_ge@leg.wa.gov.
