What a great reminder for election week:
We can compete on the playing field and still pursue BROTHERHOOD!
These two PBS “Poco” Brothers have stayed connected and are living out the bonds built last June at AU! #WeAreBoysState

Dir. Bennett shared about 3 groups that make PBS possible: @AmericanLegion, PBS Staff & most of all, our outstanding Jr & Sr Counselors. Tucker Hipps was selected as a counselor because he was one of the best. We are so appreciative for the support from TuckerGives.org!
Outstanding day at the Tucker Hipps Memorial Golf Tournament! The proceeds from today’s TuckerGives.org event will support many worthwhile efforts including @SCBoysState & PredestinedOutreach.org. Check out the multiple posts & pics at our FB page: facebook.com/share/p/mZe4mpQ…
It is times like this when our State shines!
Be sure to check on your loved ones, help a neighbor in need, serve your community, and #BeTheDifference!

There’s no limit when we all pull together!

10 years have passed since the day our Boys State Brother Tucker Hipps left this place. Our prayers continue for his family and our gratitude grows for the work his parents Cindy & Gary do to educate, challenge & protect students across this Nation. #HippsDontLie #WeAreBoysState
Remembering Noah Tweed -
He brought such energy and excitement and left us too soon. Thank you Brother, you are missed!

An outstanding opportunity to put what you learned at PBS into action serving with another Boys State Alum! #WeAreBoysState
My offices in Greenville, North Charleston, Columbia, and Washington, D.C., are looking for interns this fall. Students interested in learning about Congress and gaining firsthand experience in the American legislative process should apply. LEARN MORE ⬇️
