USHPAA Grand Opening!
The
United States House Page Association of America's
official website "Page Life" is now open! Hopefully this
website can serve as the online resource for former
pages and prospective pages to connect bases and
exchange information. Since the page program has been a
staple program of the United States Congress since the
beginning of our nation, I am surprised that very few
websites have surfaced over its history to provide
information about the program. On this site, you will
find information about the
program (for new pages or prospective pages),
answers to your questions about
the program, a historical summary
of the program, a photo gallery
featuring thousands of photos,
alumni pages, former pages'
stories and memories regarding the program, and a
way to connect with fellow former
pages. Be sure to check out all of the site's great
features. And, make sure to click on pictures in the
information section to zoom in on them!
Former Page Registry
Thanks to all those
former pages who have already signed up for the
registry! Eventually the USHPAA will make a searchable
alumni database. If you have
not signed up for the registry yet, make sure to do so
by clicking here. Former
pages who sign up for the
registry will receive occasional email updates about the
status of the page program. The goal of the registry is
to establish a database of page alumni that will serve
as the voice of former pages on behalf of the program.
Photo Gallery Open
After days of collecting pictures from various former
pages and websites, the photo
gallery is now complete. The gallery features a
showcase of over 6,000 photos! You can look at
individual photos, view them in thumbnails, or watch
them in a slideshow. If you have a collection of photos
yourself, please send them to us either by upload (visit
the gallery) or by
email.
Contribute to the
Site
Before the USHPAA, there has been no online center for
page program alumni or prospective pages. The goal of
this website is to provide those seeking information
about the program with the right resources to answer any
questions they might have. If you are a former page from
ANY year or term, the USHPAA would like your help.
Please send us anything you can to contribute to the
site. Photos, historical information, class information,
etc. are all needed to help this online community grow.
Also, former pages should consider adding their names
and emails to our page registry.
If you choose to add yourself to the registry, we will
email you with important news and updates about the
program. |

"The United States House Page Association of America is
the online center for the House of Representatives Page Program.
Here, you can find information about the program and answers to
your questions. For over 200 years, the program has served the
Congress of the United States. Working on the floor of the
House, pages serve Members of Congress. High school juniors from
all over the country come to Washington D.C. to live, work, and
attend school in the political epicenter of the world. Pages
receive schooling in the award-winning House Page School in the
Library of Congress, live in a Residence Hall with fellow pages,
and work for the federal government. Over its lengthy history,
the page program has changed the lives of countless teenagers
and produced some of the nation's most successful politicians,
businessmen, and public servants." |
