A Message from Mayor Tammy
Sincerely, Mayor Tammy
• Are you looking for a way to impact others your age in Meridian?
• Do you possess leadership skills?
Then come join the Mayor’s Youth Advisory Council!
The council is made up of students who live in Meridian, are ages
14 to 18, and attend Meridian schools. They meet twice a month during the
school year at Meridian’s City Hall to discuss issues that affect youth.
• Are you between the ages of 14 and 18?
Saturday, April 13, 2013 In Meridian, we are lucky to have many members of our community who generously
donate countless hours towards programs, projects, and events that benefit us all. Our
volunteers are a great example of our community as a whole; a caring community who
give their time and talents to so many great causes. Volunteers provide a broad source of expertise and manpower for City programs.
In addition to what they give, they gain new skills, meet new people, develop greater
knowledge and understanding of city government, help address community issues, and
gain personal satisfaction – all while making a difference here in Meridian.
Annually, citizens donate more than 20,000 volunteer hours to the City of Meridian. Having
volunteers involved in many projects saves taxpayers countless dollars and helps the City
responsibly utilize its resources.
Continuing in that tradition, the Meridian Police Department is launching a new Park
Volunteer Program for Kleiner Park. This program will train citizen volunteers to be the
“eyes and ears” of law enforcement within the park and to answer questions park visitors
Mayor of Meridian
might have regarding the park’s amenities and the broader community. If you are interested
Tammy de Weerd
in the Park Volunteer Program or any volunteer opportunity with the City, please email
volunteer coordinator Barb Hatch at bhatch@meridiancity.org or call her at 846-7340.
Everyone has a talent and we know there are many needs to be met and opportunities for involvement in our community. If
you have time you want to share, we’d be happy to help find the right opportunity for you! Please accept my heartfelt thanks
to all of our current and past volunteers - you make a huge impact on Meridian and we are so grateful for your service.
