Boy's State Nomination

Is Boy’s State worth it? I got nominated for it this summer. Also, how intense are the athletic activities?

American Legion Boys State?

Yeah

I attended Girl’s State, not Boy’s State, so I’m not sure about the athletic activities involved for your program in particular, but it is most definitely worth it to attend. It’s an incredible honor and, aside from looking great on college apps, it will be a blast to participate in.

My son attended last summer - it’s not known for being an athletic camp IMO. However, he really enjoyed being surrounded by so many intelligent and high achieving kids. And it does look good on college apps

Can anyone tell me what the dress code is for Boy’s State? They provided very limited guidance. I would expect Khackis and button down shirts - a blazer maybe?

Most of the time they wore athletic shorts and t shirts, definitely have something nice for special
Events but overall it was casual (I’m in Wisconsin)

Thank you for the prompt reply. Very helpful!
