Local Students Serve as Legislative Pages

Meg Spidle, a student at Olympia High School, served as a page this week in the Washington State House of Representatives. Sponsored by State Rep. Debra Lekanoff (D-Bow), Meg is the child of Holly Davies and Adrian Spidle of Olympia. Pages assume a wide variety of responsibilities, from presenting the flags to distributing amendments on the House floor. Pages support the efficient operation of the Legislature while also receiving daily civics instruction, drafting their own bills, and participating in mock committee hearings.
