Board of Legislators Trip

When you hear that the first head legislator of Scarsdale is turning 100 years old this year you think what no wayyyyyy!!! That is what I thought when I heard that at the Board of Legislators Trip. Grab your popcorn and get ready to read more interesting facts about the Board of Legislators that will blow your mind away, and what are my favorite parts on that trip.

I did so many fun things on the Board of Legislators trip that I will be sharing with you.

The first thing that I enjoyed was the bus ride because I got to sit with my friends, and talk with them about a lot of stuff in Scarsdale when passing by stores and houses.

 We also sang we are going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship song. That goes like, “We are going on a trip in our favorite rocket ship zooming through the sky little einstein.” The second thing that I enjoyed was going on the vibe elevator going up to the floor. We had a lot of vibes on the elevator, meaning we jumped around a shouted elevator. Also my friends were on the elevator. The last thing that I will be sharing is when I was a public speaker. One time when I was a public speaker that day I got to speak first about the law and I said “ It  should not be a law because kids should have vending machines in school.” When I was a public speaker I got a script and got to tell the chairman Josh what my opinion was on the mock problem. Now get ready to read about what I learned about government.

I learned so many cool things at the  Board of Legislators trip and today I will share 3 facts that I learned. 

One thing that I learned there was that there are 17,646 people who live in Scarsdale, also I learned that Benjamin Boykin loves to visit each and every school in Scarsdale. The head legislator ( Benjamin Boykin) told us that when he asked us to ask questions. The second thing that I learned was that there are 17 legislators so when they vote on a bill it is an odd amount of votes so there is not a tie. I thought that that was very smart to do. The last thing that I learned at the Board of Legislators trip was that there are 1.3 million people in Westchester. That’s a lot of people. When I heard that number in my head I was like why is that number so high I definitely think it’s lower. That was the most memorable thing that I learned on the field trip.

Well that’s all I learned about and what I liked the most. I hope your mind was blown away and that you finished your popcorn. I hope you enjoyed it.
