Since legislators like to see 4-H members from their districts, 4-Hers (age 13 or older) are encouraged to serve as Honorary\u00a0Pages. The Maine 4-H program has up to 30 slots for Honorary Pages.What does a page do? Legislators are constantly communicating and making decisions while in session and pages make that communication possible. Pages\u00a0hand out information packets\u00a0or place the paper information on their desks. Pages will also run communication and documents directly from legislator to legislator.If you are interested in serving as a page, please contact\u00a0\u00a0Diana at 207-622-7546 or <a href=\"mailto:diana.hartley@maine.edu\">hartley@maine.edu<\/a>.We would love to pages from all over the state represented.
