romoting olitical I olicies Feel the need to meet a future congressman, gover- nor or maybe even presi- dent? If so, come to a Junior Statesman or Dobson YMCA Youth and Govern- ment meeting. These two clubs offered a world full of debating, current issues, and politics. Students were part of a nation wide chapter, competing and participating in various conferences. Members were given the chance to meet with con- gressmen, where they learned about Arizona’s leg- islative process through ac- tion, educating them for the future. Both clubs were able to experience how life is after high school and the pressures and problems in today’s world. Quite possi- bly one of these students, might very well be the next president.
