Boys State is a great honor and a fabulous opportunity for learning and personal growth
It is my Jamie's dream to go to the naval academy and serve
So everything he learns and experiences will contribute to making him the fine officer he will ultimately be
Not to mention
That it sounds like it's going to be a crazy amount of fun
A lot of work to be sure
But fun and enriching
I thank you and your Post for the confidence you've placed in Jamie and the opportunity you have afforded him
It is indeed an honor and a privilege for him to be counted among the fine young men I met at the dinner last evening.

Hey Chuck it's Mike Maddox from the Jersey Boys' State. I just wanted to take a minute to thank you for sending me, it was a really great
experience and I am really glad I went. I loved my counselors and the
students there as well. I would be more than happy to speak about my
experience to next years candidates as well as if I'm up to next year
maybe even be a counselor! That's how much I enjoyed it, and I am
just really glad that you believed in me and made it possible for me
to go, thank you!

Hello I'm just writing you to give you a huge thanks for giving me a great opportunity to attend Boys State. It was probably the most fun, and eventful thing i have done in my life. i met 5 of the most wonderful friends attending only 6 days. I still keep in touch with my close Friends to this day. I wanted to say I'm so thankful you picked me out of all the male students that are in delsea/ glouster county. I could stay there all summer. My counselors were the best, and we had a amazing time, all because of all of you!!! thank you sooo much!

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

with respect, Sheldon Hicks Clayton High School

Thank you for all the work you have done to make it possible for my son, Joshua to experience Boys State. His time with Boys State was very educational and eye-opening for him. Thank you for your patience and efforts. I will always be gracious for the committed work you have done. He would love to have the opportunity again if the opportunity presents itself. I hope you had a wonderful Father's Day and may you be encouraged to continue the work for other boys. Thank you.

Comments: : I was one of the lucky boys that post 252 sent to ALJBS this summer. I cannot express how thankful I am for that oppertunity it changed so much in my life. I now am looking into getting into politics in my future because I believe that I can truely help my country best through that. Without your sponsorship I wouldn't have learned the skills and knowledge that will follow me the rest of my life. This program has made me more confident and positive than I ever have been. I look forward to the oppertunity of possibly being a junior assistant there next year having filled out the paper work necessary. Thank you one last time.
