Each year the American Legion Sponsors Boys and Girls State . This summer time venture takes place to give choice youths some knowledge of the hows and whys of our government. The gentlemen had their sessions at the University of Alaska while the young ladies traveled to Anchorage for their lessons. For seven very memorable days each group lived through a rigid schedule of work- shops, lectures, and what-not. During this time they learn alot, had a little fun, and remembered it all. West Valley is proud to state that out of all 80 boys state attenders, Drake Selmer, was elected as Lt. Governor, which is the 2nd highest office available in the mock government construction by the students. All in all it proved to be a very enjoyable and enlightening experience.
