Several Pella students participated in an annual state camp sponsored by the American Legion. Trace Hopkins, Dom Davis, and Canaan Dunham participated in Boys State this past week in Des Moines. Hopkins, who through the process was elected as Governor of the 2025 class, says the experience included opportunities to learn more about government, which included visits from several state lawmakers. American Legion Post 89 sponsored the attendance of those students. Hopkins was chosen as the alternate for the national program. Reanna and Rose DeVries participated in Girls State earlier this summer through the American Legion Auxiliary. Hear more from Hopkins on Friday’s Let’s Talk Pella program.
