Baton Rouge, LA – Just
less than twenty-four hours before all of America would cast their votes for
the 45th Presidents of the United States, the members of the Outstanding
Mature Girlz (O.M.G.) Club made their way to the polls. Candidate hopefuls gave brief speeches to
their peers, in hopes of becoming the next leaders of the all-girls club during
the 2016 -2017 school year.
“I love that I can run
for President, it reassures me that I can do anything,” said Shy’Janae Hookfin
who stunned her peers with a unanimous vote.
Students also elected Chriterra Brumfield - Vice President, Ariel Scott -
Secretary, J’Qualene Floyd - Treasurer, Shermil Myles - Parliamentarian, Symone
Bryer - iReporter, and Khristian Muse - Chairman.
The O.M.G. Club is an
in-school and out-of-school club designed to create fun, informative public
awareness platforms for girls in and around the state of Louisiana, to help service
and educate them in the areas of HIV/AIDS and all other STD, and health related
fields.
This club also includes
fun project based activities that will help girls learn new skillsets, all
while promoting a healthy body, mind and spirit!
