Best of luck to Andrew Li and Luke Zhong as they take on Boys Nation this week in Washington DC. All of us at Keystone are cheering you on!

Last week, some of our citizens had the unique opportunity to sit down for lunch with Pennsylvania State Representative Rob Kauffman of the 89th District.

It was a firsthand look at leadership in action and a conversation they won’t soon forget.

[Keystone Boys State @PABoysState]

PA State Trooper Johnathan Zook (and proud KBS alumni/staff member) gave our citizens a look into the proud history and rich information of the Pennsylvania State Police. He shared why he loves what he does, and what it means to serve with pride.

Bills. Amendments. Motions. Deadlines.
This is county time.
In DiFrancesco and Conley, every minute counts. Focused faces, tired but motivated eyes, and the will to lead through it all.

Meet the Mayors of KBS 2025.

Elected by their peers, these citizens stepped up to lead their cities with vision, grit, and determination. From bold campaign speeches to real-time decision-making, they’re learning what it means to serve—and to lead.

[Keystone Boys State @PABoysState]

Francesco Carr has been elected mayor of Blakeslee City—and his first move? Appointing Thomas Mayo as his City Planner and right-hand man.

Two minds. One mission.
This is how leadership takes shape at Keystone Boys State.

Today, we pause to remember the brave men and women who gave their lives in service to our country. Their sacrifice is the foundation of our freedom — and we are forever grateful.

🇺🇸 This Memorial Day, we honor their memory.
