The Washburn County Board
of Supervisors welcomes youth in grades 9, 10, and 11 who are
residents of Washburn County to apply to serve as youth representatives
on the County Board. This initiative provides Washburn County
youth an opportunity to play a valuable and active leadership
role in the governance of the county while enhancing their interest
in the operation of local government and civic participation.
Youth involvement on
the County Board will require not only enthusiasm, but also a
commitment of time and energy to this important role. Youth representatives
will be expected to attend County Board meetings. Youth will have
the opportunity to participate in committee meetings if interested.
TERMS
Three youth will be
selected to serve a one-year term (April 2009-April 2010) and
three alternates will be selected to serve a two-year term (first
year as alternate, second year as main representative; term April
2009-April 2011.)
