Select few chosen for Boys State

The 2003 delegates to American Legion Boys State have been chosen to represent Warren County High School and Boyd Christian School. American Legion Boys State continues to be the leading training ground for tomorrow’s leaders from the local to the national level.

American Legion Boys State is not a school-room activity, but a practical experience for young men in the actual problems of government as it operates in Tennessee. Boys State is not meant to take the place of civics or government as those classes are taught in the state high schools, but is planned so young men may put into actual practice the theories of government through actual participation in city, county and state government organized as a mythical 51st state.

This year’s delegates from Warren County High School are: Jameson Michael Bouldin, the son of Mike and Vickie Bouldin; William Rust Collier, the son of Charles Collier and Pat Bryan; Miguel Angel Cota, the son of Jesus Cota and Caroline Regalado; Dustin Roberts Dowell, the son of Mark and Donna Dowell; Shane Donovan Fisher, the son of Timothy and Cynthia Fisher; Jay William Koelbl, the son of Steve and Mary D. Koelbl and William Nathan Maxwell, the son of Gene and Kelly Maxwell.

Warren County High School alternates are: Ross Garrett Marlowe, the son of Scott and Jane Marlowe; Kyle Graham Stuart, the son of Richard and Debbie Stuart and Michael Nathen Green, the son of Mike and Donna Green.

The delegate from Boyd Christian School is Clint Patterson, the son of Eddie and Bonnie Patterson. Boyd Christian School’s alternate is Chase Hard, the son of Scott and Dee Hard.

This year’s delegates will attend American Legion Boys State from May 25-31. American Legion Post 173 thanks the following civic clubs and banks that paid fees for these young men: Noon Rotary Club, Breakfast Rotary Club, Rock Island Lions Club, Exchange Club, First National Bank, Union Planters Bank, Cumberland Bank and AmSouth Bank.
