March 13
Teens, ages 13 and older (as of 1/1/08) as well as 4-H Leaders, parents, community members, school groups, etc. are invited to attend Local Government Days (LGD) on Wednesday, March 13, from 8:30 a.m.to 2:30 p.m.. The program will be held at the Penn State Worthington Campus in Dunmore. Local Government Day offers teens the opportunity to learn about local government through role playing and discussion with community experts and government officials. This year’s topic will be “Do the Crime, Pay the Time” and will explore the local Magistrate’s office regarding sentencing. For example what are the minimums and maximums? Are they allowed to step outside of those guidelines? How do they decide what punishment fits what crime? Morning refreshments, lunch and program materials will be provided. Registration and $5.00 for 4-H members, parents and leaders, $15.00 to all others is due March 3, 2008. Transportation may be available based on interest. Call the 4-H office at 570-253-5970 ext. 4110 to register.
