Evergreen Boys State aims to simulate and emulate Washington State government through a fun and engaging program. You’ll help build your very own government from the ground up... Cities, Counties, Political Parties, Courts, A Legislature, and even elect a Governor. You’ll be guided through the tools and resources you need to succeed by actual elected officials and business leaders. Then it is up to you to make your system of government work. It won’t always be easy, but you’ll have fun and learn more than you thought possible along the way.
You will have the opportunity for one-on-one interaction with some of the most powerful leaders in our state, including Attorney General Rob McKenna. Plus, thousands of dollars in scholarships are given out each year to students participating in the program. Every student attending now also has the opportunity to earn 4 college credits for their full participation in the program.
Throughout the week, you’ll also have the opportunity to earn several different scholarships reserved specifically for students attending the program. Plus, two young men will be selected for an all-expenses paid trip to participate in the American Legion Boys Nation program in Washington, D.C.
It’s only open to young men who have just completed their junior year of high school, though. So apply now. It truly is a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
Awards ceremony and graduation coming up shortly. Congratulations to the Evergreen Boys State class of 2013! You are almost done!
