Entry Description STATEHOUSE (Dec. 13, 2012) — State Sen. Michael Crider (R-Greenfield) invites area middle school and high school students to spend a day at the Statehouse and serve as Senate pages during the 2013 legislative session, which runs from Jan. 7 to April 29.
“The Senate Page program is a valuable educational opportunity for students interested in learning more about state government,” Crider said. “By getting a firsthand look at how Indiana’s government operates, pages gain a good understanding of the law-making process.”
Interested students should submit page requests as soon as possible by visiting www.in.gov/senatepageprogram. Requests may also be emailed to Senator.Crider@iga.in.gov or by mail to the following address:
State Sen. Michael Crider
Indiana Senate
200 W. Washington St.
Indianapolis, IN 46204
All requests need to include the student’s name, address, home telephone number, age and school affiliation.
Friends wanting to page on the same day should send requests together. Crider said specific date requests will be considered, but may not be possible. The Senate’s page office will confirm the scheduled date after processing the incoming requests.
Participating as a page is an excused absence from school. Pages must arrive at the Statehouse by 8:30 a.m. to begin their orientation. They will then tour the historic Statehouse and observe legislative proceedings in committee rooms or the Senate Chamber.
Parents are responsible for pages’ transportation to and from the Statehouse, and pages should plan on bringing a lunch or money to buy a meal. Food can be purchased at the Government Center Cafeteria, Circle Centre Mall or one of the many downtown restaurants near the Statehouse.
For additional information on the Senate page program, visit Crider’s website at www.in.gov/senator.crider or call 1-800-382-9467.
