CHENEY — Area residents have an opportunity to learn about the duties of the state treasurer.

It’s an opportunity to learn about the surprising things the treasurer is responsible for, including the state credit rating and its impact on bond sales, as well as investments the state makes and the Financial Education Bill currently in the Legislature, organizers said.
