ARKANSAS BCDYS' AND Tom0rrow's Leaders, Lifetime Challenge Leadership, scholarship, and charac- ter are all important factors in choosing students to attend Boys' and Girls' State. Boys' and Girls' State was a time of both learning and adventure. Russell- ville sent ll boy representatives and 19 girls to attend the States. Delegates were assigned to fictitious cities, counties, and political parties. Wanting fellow Russellville friends to win, yet campaigning for someone in his or her party, city, or county, made deci- sions hard for RHS delegates. One girl stated, The experience of Girls' State is one week, but the chal- lenge of Girls' State lasts a lifetime. 'Q - ' I 'V flu .. 'gf rt- t f:5fe 53 , ,.
