The city council made it clear that they would offer 14 young Ludonnais, aged 16-20, to work in the municipal services this summer as part of its campaign promises.

Philippe Ducamp, mayor, said that they were shocked to receive thirty applications. We wanted young people to have the chance to get to know the work world. So, four girls aged 17-18 were recruited as pairs with ten boys. Budget: EUR10,000″.

They will be working from July 11 through August 29 after passing a medical exam. They will have a variety of tasks: cleaning up the Paloumey gravel pit and keeping it clean; organizing the archives; moving chairs and tables from the municipal buildings; and sanding wooden tables.
