Palmetto Boys State is a unique and exciting one-week program designed to teach
young men about our governmental sytem and the politics that make it run.
However, Boys State is much more than learning about government. In fact, for those
young men who are chosen to attend, it might be the most important and fulfilling
week of their lives!
