Adrian Franco, Andy Rinestine and Raymond Castro were selected as the American Legion Post 77 representatives for New Mexico Boys' State 2010 conference at Eastern New Mexico University in Portales.

This is the first year the American Legion Post 77 in Logan has had a representative in approximately 10 years. Our boys are going to have their hands full. They left on Sunday the 30th for Portales for a week of intense and concentrated study of the intricacies of how government really works at a state level. The week will take them more in depth over what they had in school. Our own former Commander of Post 77 and former State Commander, Vigil Brown will accompaned the boys.
