National Civics Bee

About The Bee

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Wyoming is partnering with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce Foundation to host a nonpartisan civics competition that encourages young Americans to engage in civics and contribute to their communities. Participating 6th, 7th, and 8th graders will flex their civics knowledge for a chance to win recognition and cash prizes. Finalists will be invited to Washington, D.C. to compete in the National Civics Bee National Competition in Fall 2026

Why Civics?

The Boys & Girls Clubs of Central Wyoming is participating in the National Civics Bee because it aligns with our mission to inspire all youth, especially those who need us most, to reach their full potential as responsible, productive, and caring citizens. Through the partnership with the National Chamber of Commerce, we are promoting greater civic knowledge in Wyoming and Celebrating our Civic Pride.
