League Observer Corps

The League of Women Voters of the La Crosse Area have initiated a new program in La Crosse and the surrounding areas. An Observer Corps, made up of League and non-League members, has begun observing local government meetings, with the purpose of making government more transparent. We will be sharing our observations with the public in the near future. If you are interested in joining us and observe a county board, city council or local town board meeting, or a committee meeting at any level, please contact us at observercorps@lwvlacrosse.org.

Use this form to record what you observe. [pdf] [word]
