Capstone Student Legislature 2009
January 19-22
Every Christian needs to take this class. I cannot stress this enough! - Zeb, age 17
Registration for the 2009 Capstone and Stonesetters Student Legislatures is now open. Early discount registration closes February 15th. These popular seminars reach capacity quickly, so you must act soon to reserve a place.
Capstone attracts students from across Idaho to learn about the workings of our state government during the legislative session. Giving students a passion for citizenship and justice through direct experience, the seminars include bill drafting, mock legislature, policy debate, briefings with public officials, interaction with lobbyists, constitutional law, mock appellate court, and much more. Parents are encouraged to attend at no charge.
Our older daughter came last year and was so ignited with hope and enthusiasm, our whole family wanted to take part this year. – Parent
Capstone Seminar: January 19-22
The Capstone Student Legislature for ages 13-18 will be held at the Statehouse, with an optional Friday public speaking seminar. Parents are welcome to attend.
Stonesetters Seminar: January 23
The 8-12 year old Stonesetters Student Legislature will be held Friday only, at the Statehouse. Designed for parents and students, Stonesetter “legislators” will focus on how a bill becomes a law, parliamentary procedures, and introductions to legislators, while gaining experience in writing and debating their own bills. A parent is required to attend.
It was good and I hope to do it again. – Josiah, age 9

Before this class, I knew nothing about my state’s government. After four days, I was privileged to experience first-hand what our leaders do for us every day. As a high school student, I know this opportunity happens maybe once in a lifetime. – Matt, age 15
