Noel Malin, a junior at BHS, recently participated in the Moose Youth Awareness Program for the third consecutive year. This program challenges high school students to educate, persuade, and inspire younger students to make positive choices related to bullying prevention, substance use, healthy habits, and nutrition.

As part of the program, Noel wrote an article and led a lesson at Ledges Elementary focused on the importance of including others. His efforts earned him a nomination from Boone Moose Lodge #104 to attend the Association Youth Awareness Congress in Phoenix, Arizona.

Representing Iowa at the national level, Noel placed 6th overall. We are proud of his commitment to making a positive impact and sharing his message with students both locally and beyond. Congratulations, Noel! 🎉
