    Special congratulations to Zebbie (ZebadiJah Maxwell)! She made her family proud! Despite the fopas of the technician- for every round, she still shone through and barely faltered. She truly enjoyed herself and had fun!!! With that spirit she will go places.

    Congratulations to the other participants you all did well. Congrats Arkysha!!
