Who really enjoys work? Boys’ and Girls’ State was a workshop in government; for this reason it was a must that students selected were willing to do some studying. They studied material on state government a month before they went, for preparation for the week’s stay. Boys’ And Girls’ State Forms Future Leaders Boys’ and Girls’ State wasn’t a recreational camp. There was a planned program of athletics for a part of each afternoon, and other recreational activities were offered. Yet, the principle purpose of the project was to instruct the students in good citizenship and good government. Leadership qualities were essential in ‘Staters’, and those selected must have proven that they were leaders and were right for this honor. “Since the students we recommend may be in state competition, we are sure to send our ‘best’,” stated Steve Schroeder, NHS counselor. Students selected include: Greg Allen, Mark Brtek, Kathy Belville, Alka Desai, Cami Wilcox, and Paula Effle. Girls from NHS attending state include; Cami Wilcox, Kathleen Belville, Alka Desai, and Paula Effle. Boys from Norfolk attending State are; Greg Allyn, and Mark Brtek.
