Hello engaged youth! Do you ever wish you could be in charge of this city? That’s right, the wish to have your fancy ideas be implemented in the city of Calgary. Well now is your chance. Madeline Gustavson, a grade nine student was chosen last year as the Mayor for a Day. She got to spend a whole day with the Mayor and learn what its like to be in the head seat! Here in this video where she talks about the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be the Mayor of Calgary. Unfortunately, if you’re in high school, you aren’t able to apply for Mayor for a Day. However, encourage your friends and family members between grades 6-9 to apply and you can work together to think of three amazing, creative and innovative ideas for your 3 things for Calgary. It only takes three steps!
1. Write your three things for Calgary
2. Fill out the nomination form and send it to myc@youthcentral.com.
3. Spread the word about your three things and blog about it on their website.
If you’re having troubles, feel free to look on the Mayor for a day website or our facebook page for info on how to write a winning essay with creative ideas!
