Students To Play Municipal Councillor At MODL

Students from grade 9 to 12 will take part in a municipal council meeting next week. Councillors from the Municipality of Lunenburg will host the students to promote local government during Municipal Awareness Week. Each councillor will be paired with a student to show them the ropes. The students will be able to sit at the council table and see how the decision process works during a council meeting on Tuesday. Municipal Awareness Week is a public awareness campaign which runs from September 24-30th.  It's also designed to try and boost voter turn out for the upcoming election.
