The City of Margate held its regular City Commission meeting on April 2, 2025, where community engagement and recognition were at the forefront. The meeting began with a roll call of the commissioners, followed by a moment of silence and the Pledge of Allegiance, led by a local student, Leonardo Little.

In a heartwarming gesture, the commission presented Leonardo with a special shirt that read, "I like the pledge," acknowledging his participation and encouraging civic involvement among youth. This monthly tradition of honoring a student and teacher from each of the nine schools in Margate highlights the city's commitment to fostering community spirit and recognizing the contributions of its younger residents.

The meeting not only served as a platform for civic engagement but also reinforced the importance of education and community pride in Margate. As the city continues to celebrate its youth, residents can look forward to more initiatives that strengthen community ties and promote active participation in local governance.
