GA. YOUTH ASSEMBLY
ATTENDED BY SEVERAL
JHS STUDENTS
Jackson High School was
represented at the 1977
Georgia Youth Assembly
held April 7-9 in Atlanta.
Seven students attended the
three-day affair held annual
ly by the Co-Ed-Y Clubs
throughout Georgia.
Based at the Atlanta Hilton
Hotel, most of the action took
place in the State Capitol.'
Purpose of the assembly is to
help students better under
stand the workings of state
and national governments.
The capitol is transformed
into a “mock” congress
composed of a House and a
Senate. Students are assign
ed to one of these groups
where they debate and vote
on bill authored by their
fellow members.
The Jackson Co-Ed-Y Club
had two bills selected to be
introduced into the assembly
this year. Senate Bill No. 1,
authored by Ricky Long and
Bobby Pinckney, concerned
the vaccination regulations
of domesticated animals
imported into the state.
Although the Bill was
short-lived, both students
showed excellent prepara
tion and delivery.
House Bill No. 25, authored
by Linday Mackey and Jean
Earnhart, dealt with the
placement of motorist-aid
call boxes along interstate,
highways. This Bill passed
both the House and the
Senate.
Other students selected to
attend the assembly were
Lee Duffey, Deborah Ken
dricks, and Donna Tingle.
Ms. Barbara McGee was
advisor for the group. “We
really worked hard,” the
advisor said, “but each
student learned a great deal
while having a good time in
the process.”
