Message Regarding Deadlines Sent April 8, 2026

Hello!

The Arkansas Girls State Committee set deadlines for this year's session based on our timeline to meet requirements for an excellent 2026 program.  
Unfortunately, we are unable to extend our deadlines; we unable to extend our deadlines; we hope that you understand our position as we work to complete tasks required to fund vendors, contract counselors, assign dorms, etc.
The American Legion Auxiliary is a non-profit organization, and the Arkansas Girls State Program is run entirely by volunteers; we operate within the constraints of others, thus our restrictive timeline. 
We look forward to your school's participation in next year's program. 

Respectfully, 
Arkansas Girls State Committee
