SCOTT CITY YOUTH TO ATTEND SEMINAR

SCOTT CITY -- Bryan Burger, a sophomore at Scott City High School, will represent his school at the Hugh O'Brien Youth Foundation East Leadership Seminar to be held in St. Louis Friday and Saturday.

All 10th-grade students had the opportunity to compete for the honor by answering a series of essay questions about their current and potential leadership abilities. A faculty committee chose the student to represent the school.

The Hugh O'Brien Youth Leadership Seminar was founded 35 years ago, when O'Brien was inspired by a visit with Dr. Albert Schweitzer at his famous clinic in Lamborene, Galon.

During the three-day seminar, 180 outstanding high school sophomores from Eastern Missouri will have the opportunity to meet with some of St. Louis' top corporate, political, sports and media leaders. The focus of the seminar is leadership development.
