You may have seen some of Kewaunee County's next leaders roaming the halls of its municipal buildings on Wednesday. Organized by the local American Legion chapters, students from the County’s three high schools toured the Sheriff’s Office, jail museum, courthouse, and administration building as part of the annual Youth Government Day. Kewaunee County Clerk Jamie Annoye says it is great to see young people in the community take an interest in what they do daily.
Annoye says this is the first time they have held their Youth Government Day since 2019. In addition to the tours led by county officials, attorney Kirt Johnson shared his experiences working on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C., and the participants participated in a mock trial.
