Commissioner to Host Town Hall for Millennials in South Cobb

From Cobb County

District Four Commissioner Lisa Cupid will host a unique town hall, tailored toward youth, millennials and families, 7 p.m., Thursday, Oct. 1, at McEachern High School, 2400 New MacLand Road, Powder Springs.

“Every day, local leaders make decisions that affect our youth and families on things like libraries, parks and recreation, sidewalks, buses and public safety,” Cupid said. “It is important to hear directly from our bright young people so we can work together to best shape Cobb’s future. Come learn about our local government and let us learn from you.”

Cupid will provide a brief “County Government 101” overview and share the School Oriented Development initiative. Priority for comments and questions will be given to attendees up to age 35. Young people are encouraged to wear spirit gear from their respective schools and share their input on what Cobb can do to be responsive to the needs, concerns and desires of our younger generations. Parents are encouraged to wear spirit gear from their alma mater or favorite schools. Parents should also help foster civic engagement by having children prepare questions to ask.
