Two dozen Lake Martin area 11th-graders gathered at Reeltown High School Friday to listen to a slate of elected leaders, who answered questions about their jobs and shared leadership wisdom.  

Rep. Ed Oliver (R-Dadeville) and public educators' union Alabama Education Association (AEA) hosted the State Government Day event, with Junior Leadership Lake Martin members from Benjamin Russell, Horseshoe Bend, Dadeville and Reeltown high schools in attendance. Normally held in Montgomery, legislators came to Tallapoosa County this time due to COVID-19 restrictions in the capitol.
