OnSite Report

Teenworks, February 1-2, 2008

Our third Onsite of the year featured 54 students for our second collaboration with Teenworks Tutoring Service in Grand Ledge. We were thrilled to have State Representatives Brian Calley and Rick Jones join us for the Committee Hearings along with three SSI alumni who served as lobbyists for the "younger" kids. This is something that is happening more and more around the state and I am thrilled to know that former students have enough respect and passion for the program that they want to continue their involvement. Also, the local Fox Television affiliate covered the event on their nightly news program, but I am unable to post it here since we have not yet obtained a copy of the video. We are grateful to Kathy Annis and the Teenworks staff for hosting a wonderful event.

Special thanks to William Perry Construction, former Representative Scott Hummel and the Michigan Association of Insurance Agents, Mark Simon and our dear friends John and Joyce Wicker for generously helping underwrite this program. The registration fees do not cover our entire cost, so we are so blessed by the financial support that helps fully fund the Onsite Program.
