DV sophomore at leadership program

Millersville — Brianna Plaxe was selected among 245 leaders representing many high schools from throughout central and northeast Pennsylvania at the Central Pennsylvania Hugh O’Brian Youth Leadership Seminar (HOBY) in May at Millersville University. Representing Delaware Valley High School, Brianna is the daughter of Daniel and Susan Plaxe of Milford. For the past 51 years, HOBY Leadership Seminars have brought together select groups of high school sophomores to interact with groups of distinguished leaders in business, government, and education to discuss present and future issues in an enthusiastic learning environment. HOBY was established by the veteran actor Hugh O’Brian following a visit to Africa where he was inspired by a meeting with Dr. Albert Schweitzer. Says O’Brian, “HOBY’s goal is to seek out, recognize, and develop outstanding leadership potential among our nation’s youth.” Further information about HOBY activities and sponsorship opportunities is available by visiting HOBY www.hobv.org or www.centralpahoby.org.
