About Teen UniverCity
Have you ever wondered what it’s like for a firefighter to battle a car fire or climb to the top of a ladder mounted to a fire truck? Or how about a SWAT officer exiting from an armored vehicle upon arriving at a high-risk scene? These are just a couple of the amazing opportunities participants get to experience while attending Teen UniverCity.
Participants will also learn firsthand the inner workings of city government and l how each employee contributes to the quality of life in Round Rock. See first-hand how youth can have a voice in local government issues as well as explore future career opportunities in the municipal sector.
