Stanley, ND

Two teens in Stanley have shown their leadership qualities by attending leadership training and blogging workshops. Randal and Will are students at the Stanley High School. Earlier this year they were the only teens that completed the Leadership Plenty Program. The people who attended the Leadership Plenty were happy that the youth of the community were interested in becoming positive leaders and were willing to learn the skills to become effective leaders as well.
Randal and Will now will be helping Stanley introduce their community to the world. They attended a blogging training in New Town on November 15, 2007. Randal and Will will be updating the blog throughout the year.
