On June 5th, 2008, 23 Avoyelles parish 4-Hers visited the Louisiana State Capital. We visited our parish Representative, Robert Johnson and also our State Senator, Eric Lafleur. The students learned about the hustle and bustle which was taking place on the senate floor. Senator Lafleur took time out of his busy schedule to explain how voting, debating, and how important making contact with constituents really can be on issues. This valuable tour of the capital is an annual event and 4-Her’s from around the state took part.
