Rep. Crouch paging students for 2011 session STATEHOUSE - State Representative Suzanne Crouch (R-Evansville) is encouraging students ages 13-18 to sign up for the Indiana House Page Program. The program allows students to view and participate in the day-to-day activities of the General Assembly and the Statehouse. "This is an excellent program for students in Indiana, one that will teach them with hands-on experiences," said Rep. Crouch. "I encourage any student interested to sign-up to be a Page, and see for themselves how the legislative process works." Hundreds of students each year get the chance tour the governor's office, the chambers of the Indiana House and Senate, and the Indiana Supreme Court. Pages also get the chance to witness floor sessions, committee meetings and help staff members while working closely with their representative. Students will be given an excused absence for one day of school, and are responsible for transportation to and from Indianapolis. Those interested should apply as soon as possible since page appointments fill up fast. If you are interested in serving as a page for the House of Representatives send your name, age, address, phone number and school to State Rep. Suzanne Crouch, 200 W. Washington St., Statehouse Room 401-7, Indianapolis, IN 46204, or e-mail requests to H78@in.gov.
