[September 27, 2011] Technology Leader Election

Ashley wanted to try to get on Student Council this year for her school.  4th graders were only allowed to go for 2 positions: Technology Leader and Peace Patrol Leader.

Unfortunately, all the kids except 1 tried out for Technology Leader.  Unfazed, she made her poster with the help of her dad and Papa Depweg.

They made the poster play music by using a Hallmark card which played Pat Benatar's "Hit me with your best shot!" The poster was a total hit, the kids loved it, and were playing it anytime they walked by.

Unfortunately, after the votes were tallied, Ashley didn't make it.  

Still, we are so proud of her courage to run and know she gave it her all.  We went to In the Mix for a courage celebration frozen yogurt!

Undeterred, she's still planning on running for President next year!
