If you want to know what it is like to go through the Fishers City Government Academy, just talk with someone that graduated from the program. Then you will know what a great experience it is.
The City of Fishers is preparing to conduct another academy and you can join. There is no cost, but you are required to register.
What is the City Government Academy? It’s a 10-week program. You learn how local government works. There is even a session with local school superintendent Allen Bourff.
Those enrolled in the academy learn about such city departments as parks and recreation, public safety and engineering. Many graduates walk away from the program saying the most interesting part of the academy was the explanation of how the wastewater treatment plant operation works.
Bottom line, you find out so much about your local government. And joining is easy. You just need to carve out the time in your schedule and register.
You can review all the scheduled sessions and register at fishers.in.us/CGA. Only a limited number of spots are available so do not wait if you are interested.
If you have questions, the man to contact is Dan Domisic. You can send him an email at domsicd@fishers.in.us or contact him by phone at (317) 595-3151.
It all starts on Tuesday, Feb. 13. This is your chance to learn what local government does for you each and every day.
