WHAT IS BOYS NATION

Two “Boys Staters” from each state have the tremendous honor of being selected as delegates to Boys Nation.

Boys Nation is held each year after Boys State has been completed. Three former Palmetto Boys Staters have had the distinction of being elected as President of Boys Nation. Thomas Martin of Spartanburg was elected President of Boys Nation in 1973, Sterling Dowling of Orangeburg in 1997,  and Riley Harvell of Belton in 2008.
