Welcome to the town of Coutts! In our lovely second-floor jungle, you may see some creatures like a toucan, a white tiger, an elephant, or even a penguin or peacock. Well, you wouldn’t actually see these animals. Each member of our town chose an animal in our jungle theme that they felt represented them. But anyway, almost all of our members are In the Federalist party, and Coutts dominated the party convention! The Chair, the Secretary, and all three members of the platform committee were represented by Coutts residents. Go Coutts! We in Coutts are looking forward to finding out the results of the primary election today. Hopefully our town is well represented in the general election.
Today, all the towns listened to Katie Lavasseur, Miss Vermont of 2011, speak about her role and accomplishments in amending the Vermont constitution. This amendment allows seventeen-year-olds to vote in primary elections if they will be eighteen by the general election. Katie inspired us all to want to be leaders, and to stand up for what we are passionate about. Miss Vermont 2010, Caroline Bright, is our co-director of GMGS this year, and she has been really fun and enthusiastic in all of our meetings. Thanks Caroline!
