What Alumni are saying

 

Ryan J Sharrit

2023 Alumni

"FALBS was a blast I would recommend it to anyone, I felt like I had a lot of growth through this experience.

I feel FALBS has helped me get outside of my comfort zone and has enhanced my speaking skills, I feel confident to speak in front of my peers. Boys State has also enhanced my social skills, I feel confident in meeting new people and taking with adults. Also Boys State has inspired me to study Political Science in college in hopes to become a future leader one day. While Boys State was hard it was a memorable experience where I’ve met great guys and learn valuable life lessons that will benefit me throughout my life."

"Florida Boys State changed my life and I have made life-long friends that I can count and rely on to this date.

It also pushed me to work harder and get into FSU and I’m currently a Junior in FSU as a double degree seeking student. I have nothing but respect and love for American Legion Florida Boys State"

“Boys State was an incredible experience that taught me about politics, democracy, Florida, and most importantly, people. While I am convinced I will never enter politics myself, FALBS inspired me as a leader in the community and as a US citizen. Thank you to all the American Legion volunteers and staff for this amazing experience, one that I will be forever grateful for!”
