With the Second Regular Session of the 128th Legislature just around the corner, Senator Dana Dow (R-Lincoln) would like to once again invite all area students to join him 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.

“The honorary page program is all about getting students involved in state government so they can learn more about how things work in Augusta,” said Sen. Dow. “I really enjoy meeting students in the Senate Chamber each day of the session and would encourage anyone interested in the program to contact my office today.”

The program, which lasts for one day’s session, is open for students from third grade through high school. The Legislature schedules pages for each session day, which this begins on Wednesday, Jan. 3 and will conclude on April 18.
