2023 National Civics Bee

Description

The Greater Vancouver Chamber has partnered with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation to bring SW Washington the National Civics Bee! The program is designed to support and incentivize our region's youth to become better informed about American democracy and test their civics knowledge for a chance to win recognition and cash prizes!

Middle School students participate by submitting a 500-word essay that identifies a problem that our community faces, then 10 students are selected to compete in our local live "Bee"! ​

The competition will test the knowledge of our top 10 finalists and guest judges will congratulate first, second, and third-place winners with a cash prize and certificate commemorating their participation. 

If you are a friend or family of a participant, or a local business owner looking to support this event, RSVP HERE to let us know you are coming!
