First Meeting in Altoona!

I had my first meeting with my fellow delegates in Altoona this past weekend. Got to know my fellow delegates a little better, and learn some geography and history about the area in Canada we will be traveling. Got 5 homework assignments to do before the next meeting in March to me busy and learning about Canada. Should be fun!
Here are me and some of the delegates that made it to the meeting (a few are missing):

Some other news, I got to meet one of my State Representatives, Matt Gabler. He wrote a support letter for me to send to local businesses asking to help sponsor my trip! Here's a picture of me with him receiving that letter:
