- Nicole Emmer.
Attending Badger Boys State June 10-17 at Ripon College will be:

The Sussex Lions Club and the Hamilton High School Athletic Department sponsor the students’ participation in the program. The students were chosen based on their interest in government, class standing and qualities of leadership, character and fitness.
For more than 50 years, Wisconsin high school juniors have been chosen to participate in this unique program where they can meet other students and learn about Wisconsin’s system of government. This year more than 850 boys and 750 girls will participate statewide. They will learn about city, county and state government by carrying out citizenship procedures such as campaigning, voting and holding offices.
