Youth in Government

The Mayor and Committee of Wantage Township joined once again with the Sussex Borough Mayor and Council and the Sussex Wantage School District to host the 15th annual Youth in Government program at Wantage Town Hall on May 28. Eighth graders shared the work day at Wantage Town Hall and Sussex Borough Hall, shadowing the workers to get a taste of public service in action. At the evening meeting the students assumed the roles of mayors, council members, committee members, clerks, and other department heads to run a meeting and offer reports of their activities during the day. Kudos to 8th grade teacher Eileen Potts and Wantage Deputy Clerk Christine Von Oesen for coordinating this year's event. Great job everyone!
