Chestermere students offered to be Mayor for a Day

The City of Chestermere has a special contest going on for local middle schoolers.

The Mayor for a Day program gives one lucky student the opportunity to share their ideas, engage with community leaders, and learn about how municipal governments work.

The student will have their own mock inauguration ceremony and a sit down with Mayor Shannon Dean.

The student will also receive a free lunch and some branded City of Chestermere items.

To apply for the contest, the student must live in Chestermere and be between Grades 6 and 9.

Applications close on May 30, with residents able to apply for the program on the city's website.
