Heather Jackson award during opening inspired A-Team About: A-Team is Absolutely Awesome! To Columbiamagazine.com The responses to the International Competition in Wisconsin have been thrilling! This wonderful acknowledgement by Sue Stivers inadvertently omitted Heather Jackson, the winner of the Fifth Place on the Planet trophy for her outstanding Scenario that was submitted in the spring for judging. Heather was the first of our contingent to receive her award, at the opening ceremonies for the conference. I believe that seeing her receive that trophy was an inspiration to all of our competitors, giving them each an added jolt of energy toward their own efforts and accomplishments! Heather was accompanied by her mother, Trish Jackson and her younger brother, Eli Jackson, a 2009-2010 member of the Adair County Elementary School A-Team. s/Jackie Montgomery 2010-06-16 07:08:11 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
