Kid Governor Visit

Windsor Public Library will host a meet and greet with 2022 Connecticut’s Kid Governor Makhi Ettienne-Modeste  on September 14, at 5:30 PM, in Meeting Room One. Students, parents, teachers, and the general public are invited to stop by to meet Kid Governor Makhi, learn about his platform and how they can support it, hear about his exciting term in office, and participate in an interactive activity. Makhi will also share how his 5th-grade constituents can participate in this fall’s election for the 2023 Connecticut’s Kid Governor.
