🌟 Spotlight Sunday! 🌟
Wyoming Boys’ State would like to extend a sincere thank you to Francis E. Self American Legion Post 6 for their continued support of our program. In 2025, Post #6 proudly sponsored five outstanding delegates from Cheyenne, as well as the surrounding communities of Ranchettes and South Greeley.
As Wyoming’s capital city, Cheyenne plays a central role in our state’s government and civic life, and it is fitting that young leaders from this community continue to step forward and represent their hometowns at Boys’ State. The five delegates sponsored by Post #6 demonstrated leadership, integrity, and a strong commitment to learning about public service during the 2025 session.
We are deeply grateful to American Legion Post #6 and the Cheyenne-area communities for investing in the next generation of Wyoming leaders.
Thank you for helping make Wyoming Boys’ State possible! 🇺🇸
