Lewiston Middle School student serves as honorary page in Maine Senate

Lewiston Middle School student Kelsey Westleigh served as an honorary page in the Maine Senate May 16 in Augusta. She was the guest of Sen. Nate Libby of Lewiston. She and Sen. Libby posed for the picture during a break in the Senate session.

The Honorary Page program affords students an opportunity to participate in the Senate and interact with legislators. Honorary pages see what it is like to work on the floor of the Senate and be part of a legislative session. Pages perform such duties as delivering messages to senators and distributing amendments and supplements in the chamber. Students from third grade through high school are invited to serve in the Senate chamber as honorary pages when the Senate is in session.

For more information or to schedule a visit, call Sen. Nate Libby at (207) 287-1515. (Submitted photo)
