AUGUSTA — Sen. Lisa Keim, R-Oxford, is extending an invitation to all area students to join her at the State House for a day to serve as a page in the Maine Senate.
As a page, students have the opportunity to participate in a legislative session, delivering messages and distributing documents within the Senate chamber.
“This is a very popular program with young Mainers,” Keim said. “In addition to helping legislators out during the session, they also get to see the State House and learn about how their government works. I would highly recommend it to any student.”
The program, lasting for one day’s session, is open to students from third grade through high school. The legislature schedules pages for each session day, which begins on Wednesday, Jan. 3, and concludes Wednesday, April 18.
