Chesapeake Ambassadors

Who are the Chesapeake Ambassadors?

The Chesapeake Ambassadors are middle school youth (6th, 7th, and 8th graders) who want to make a difference in unique, personal ways and set a good example as positive role models.

What is the purpose of the Chesapeake Ambassadors?

To provide an opportunity for middle school youth to become more community minded, contribute in meaningful ways to service projects, and learn more about our city and services- which will inspire them to higher levels of service and achievement.

How are they selected?

Any rising 6th, 7th, or 8th grader that lives in Chesapeake and attends a Chesapeake Middle School, a Chesapeake private school, or is home schooled may apply.

Applicants must commit to attending meetings and being a contributing member. Any member who does not attend three meetings without communication will be placed on the inactive list.

What activities do they do?

• Participate in community service projects
• Explore relevant topics together
• Attend meetings and training
