Illinois Boys State Sponsor

Illinois Boys State is a week long event held June 7 - 14, 2014 at Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois. It is a simulated government program using Illinois government as a template, mirroring the structure of local, county and state governments.

Each sponsor awards a scholarship that covers tuition, room & board and round trip transportation to Eastern Illinois University in Charleston, Illinois. Without sponsors, the Boys State program would not be what it is today.
