ND Boys State -- A Hidden Gem
ND Boys State – A Hidden Gem
This week the 75th session of our North Dakota
American Legion Boys State is being held in Wahpeton, ND on the campus of the North
Dakota State College of Science. Just
think in 1965 Wally Goulet from Grafton and I from Cavalier attended ND Boys
State and Phil Jackson was a student advisor.
Hundreds of North Dakota High
School Juniors have attended Boys State including John Hoeven as Governor of
Boys State, Phil Jackson, Joel Heitkamp, and Lynn Hartje from Cavalier as
Governor in 1964. In fact, as best
citizen of St. Louis I still have my Boys State lapel pin.
Boys State Leadership Academy is an exciting weeklong
program that gives your child a firsthand experience running state
government. No lectures, no classrooms –
just hands on situations that let you take charge and make decisions. It taught me when three people are running
for three positions on the ballot you can vote for just one. Yes, North Dakota boys during your junior
school year contact your local high school counselor and plan to attend the
2018 session of American Legion North Dakota Boys State. Do
check on the ND Boys State Alumni page on Facebook.
