Ha ha, thanks for the support, but I'm thinking this is possibly my 15 minutes of fame. Making the USA Today (as discussed in this thread) is about as good as it gets, and it became fairly big news in the area. The county newspaper, The Osceola News Gazette, ran an excellent story as well a couple weeks ago that explains FIRST and why its important to our community. Now the Orlando Sentinel ran this story in the Sunday paper. It's all overwhelming, but I can not be more proud to share all the publicity with FIRST, the organization that started it all. I owe it all to my mentors and advisers that have helped me along the way. I am representing my county, my school, the many organizations I belong to, and all of those that have invested their time and efforts in me. Without a collaboration of all of these things, none of it would be possible. Thanks to everyone for all the support over the years, you all have made a BIG impact on my life, and I hope I am now positively improving the lives of others.
