BOYS STATE
Committee Chairman - Dewitt Duggar
Boys State is a comprehensive one-week course in state and local
government. Virginia American Legion Boys State is a "leadership action program" where qualified
male high school rising seniors take part in a practical government
course. It is designed to develop a working knowledge of the
structure of government and to impress upon the citizen the fact
that our government is just what we make it. Along the way they will
have the opportunity to learn the political process. Those delegates
who are elected to serve will run each level of government.
Instruction will be presented on the law and court system,
parliamentary procedure and Virginia political history.
