Over the course of eight days, the leaders of tomorrow across the state of Wisconsin congregated at Ripon College for an experience of a lifetime. They gained valuable life lessons and skills they can use for the rest of their lives. Today, the morning started with a meeting for citizens interested in returning to the Badger Boys State as staff members next year (seen here).

For the last time, all elected officials were in their respective meetings. All levels of government were in session and all non-elected citizens chose one meeting to attend. Here, the supreme court meets to hear the final cases and make their decisions.

At the last general assembly, awards were handed out for athletics, the staff was recognized for their commitment to the week, the Boys Nation senators were announced, the supreme court gave its decisions on cases and Matthew Walker, the 2011 Badger Boys State governor, gave his final message to the citizens. And with that, the 2011 session of Badger Boys State was complete.
