ChalleNGe Program Support Recognized

The annual National Guard Champions Gala was a star studded event this year.  Governor Henry along with two others were honored for their outstanding support of the programs.  Current Cadets Haislip and Stuckey were selected to make the trip to DC to represent the Oklahoma program.  This year more than 100 cadets from all the ChalleNGe programs attended to share their stories with Washington legislators and gala attendees.  The event brings a lot of awareness and donations to the programs.  Read more about the gala - Stars alight Guard's 4th annual Youth ChalleNGe night
