The American Legion Auxiliary Post 266, Belle Center, has selected Indian Lake High School junior Emma Powers of rural Belle Center and Benjamin Logan High School junior Brooke Watson of rural West Liberty to attend the June 12 through 18 Buckeye Girls State conference at the University of Mount Union at Alliance.
Buckeye Girls State is a week-long program designed to educate Ohio’s young women in the duties, privileges, rights, and responsibilities of good citizenship. By getting involved in the process, BGS delegates learn more about city, county, and state government in one week than they will in an entire semester of high school, officials contend.
