Sponsored by 35th District Rep. Drew MacEwen, Bradley Haskins Jr. traveled to Olympia last week to serve as a page in the state House of Representatives.
Bradley attends Oakland Bay Junior High School in Shelton. His favorite sports are baseball and football, and he loves cheering on the Seattle Seahawks.
During his week in Olympia, Bradley attended page school every day to understand the inner workings of the Legislature. He also learned to navigate the many buildings on the Capitol campus while delivering messages and documents to legislators and staff.
“Bradley’s a great kid, and I’m glad I had the opportunity to sponsor him as a page last week,” said MacEwen, R-Union. “I’m always impressed when students like him take the time to come to the Capitol and learn about the Legislature. That says a lot about them.”
To become a page, applicants must have a legislative sponsor, be between the ages of 14 and 16, and obtain written permission from their parents and school. Pages earn $35 per day while serving in the program. For more information about the House Page Program, click here.
