About this Event

Come learn about your county in the most extraordinary civics class you will ever take! This 7-week course will teach you how the county develops a budget, paves roads, trains employees maintains parks, cares for our natural resources, and so much more. This course also provides you with the skills and tools needed to become leaders in creating stronger, sustainable, and livable communities.


Please only register if you can commit to attending all 7 weeks

You will have the chance to ask county department directors and/or their staff about what they do, how they get it done, and what the future holds.

Classes meet at various locations throughout the county every Thursday, beginning February 12th, 2026, and ending March 26, 2026. The class starts at 9 am and ends no later than 3 pm. The full agenda will be provided on the first day of class.
