Join the League
Observer Corps!
Let’s Find Out What Exactly is Going On!
The way to find out what is going on with local government is to participate with our new Observer Corps. This has been a League function from the beginning but LWVUV has not had an Observer Corp officially for years.
It’s time to start it up again!
If you would like to spend a few hours a week or less, this is for You. You can help your League and community by signing up to be present at local government meetings and being consistent.
Observers are only present at meetings; they do not participate or even say anything. We only ask that you take notes and then report to the League board. We need You!
We will conduct an Orientation luncheon meeting in person in January 2026. Let us know your availability and any preferences you may have by emailing info@lwvuv.org.
Thank You!
