I will be competing in a triathalon in June of 2008. I am 8 years old and will be competing with adult competitors. I will run 5k, ride a bike 20k and swim 550 meters. I love to play videogames and do not like it when people associate videogames with laziness. I am going to compete with people that have spent their lives training for competitions like this, and show that kids like me can excell, in both gaming and fitness. I need corporate sponsorship to purchase my bike and competition clothing with the GameStop promotion embroidered on it.

Each week, a different local business from our small town, would give a task. An example would be, our local floral shop made each group create a sign for their business, the team with the "best" sign won for that week. This continued for 8 weeks. We had to learn how to use all of our resources, and we discovered having your own business isn't as easy as we thought. Whoever had the most wins at the end of the 8 weeks, won the apprentice project, and everyone else was fired.:)

This group was created on September 11, 2004 by Carlton C.J. Jaushlin at the age of 16. We are a marching and dance drill team working to provide training, discipline, challenges and competition opportunities for under privilege youth in the Wichita area. Our goal is to provide direction to the youth in an effort to keep the out of and away from gangs and gang violence, drugs, and jail. Being apart of the drill team requires that the youth have a C average or above to stay on the team. they also must be team players.

Perspectives was founded in 2005 to promote youth debate. Debate teaches students critical thinking and public speaking skills that helps students achieve in school and beyond. Through arguing both sides of a topic, students learn about the pressing social, political, and economic issues of our time, from globalization to human rights, and become engaged citizens and social activists. Perspectives’ work has been recognized by Senator Arlen Specter (R-PA) and Philadelphia Mayor-Elect Michael Nutter as a valuable organization for students.
