Boys Nation alumni encouraged to share memories

After American Legion Boys Nation was canceled in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this summer will be the program’s 75th session.

In conjunction with that milestone, the Legion’s Media and Communications Division is seeking Boys Nation alumni who want to share memories of their experience at one of the most respected and selective education programs of government instruction for U.S. high school students.

If you’re interested in sharing your story, please contact Assistant Editor Andy Proffet at wproffet@legion.org or post your story in the Boys State category at Legiontown.org.

The 2021 session of American Legion Boys Nation is scheduled July 23-31 at Marymount University in Arlington, Va.
