City seeks feedback from teenagers

DOWNEY - Attention teenagers: the city of Downey wants your feedback.

Two public forums have been scheduled specifically for Downey teenagers to offer their thoughts and opinions on potential city programs for the summer and fall.

The first forum is Feb. 28 and is intended for middle school students. A second forum March 7 is for high school kids.

Both forums are from 5:30-8 p.m. at the Barbara J. Riley Community and Senior Center.

"Yes, we want to hear from you!", city officials said in a statement. "This is your chance to express your thoughts, ideas, and likes for summer and fall 2014."

The forums will include interactive games, free food and raffles.

RSVPs are recommended by calling (562) 904-7223 or by emailing parksandrec@downeyca.org. Students who cannot attend a forum can take an online survey at https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/VJNQ9PP
