Re: 2008 Philadelphia Regional!
Congrats to all of the winners - it was a great event from the 1712 perspective for sure. Also a special congrats to the Troys on their awards. Volunteers and mentors are the heart and soul of what we do and inside one household you represent both so well.

On a side note, I've been counting how many WFFA's I know personally. Counting Joe (and JVN who also won this week), I'm up to 27. I've also met at least 5 more. Forget the "winners and losers" does anyone else ever stop and think about how many incredible leaders (volunteers, mentors, and students) we come to know through FIRST? I don't know about you, but when I compare it to the rest of my life it's absolutely mind-blowing.
