Kudo’s to Linda Gates AML Ladies Aux. Girls State Coordinator and Noah McBride Boys State Coordinator for a job well done in helping develope productive young people, congratulations young adults on attending GS/BS. Memories that will last forever and new freinds not lessening the real reason for attending to learn how goverment works. Please note that sponsorship for these attendees is funded totally on donations so when you see an AML Aux member during a “Buddy Poppy” drive usually at your local grocery stores or Noah ask for a donation remember your donation is supporting future attendees to the events.
