Re: Congrats Killer Bees, Kettering Chairman's Award Winners
Thanks to everyone on the Killer Bees as well as everyone else who helped us win the Chairman's Award this year. Our students did a fantastic job on the submission, the presentation, and the video. Winning Chairmans on Saturday was one of the biggest moments in our 14 year history.

This is a great example of the saying "Never Give Up".
We have been trying to win this award for over a decade, and we have been trying very hard for at least 6 years now. For several years, I believed that we would probably never win. But still, we never gave up. Over time our team continued to do more and more good things, and over time our submissions got stronger and stronger.

Next Steps: A: Win Again at the State Championships
B: Win Again in Atlanta

"Dream Big and Never Give Up!"
Thanks Again!
