Stay Inspired!!

I'm now a high school senior (Class of '17) working on other service projects at the S. C. Governor's School for Science and Mathematics in Hartsville.  Thank you again for everyone's support of this project over the last few years in Georgetown County.  Take a look at everything we accomplished together!!!  Click here

I've heard from other kids all around the country about how this blog has inspired them to make their own websites for their communities.  Keep up the great work!!!

Donation to FOWL

LOL

Presentation of the check!

Today at the FOWL luncheon, I presented a check to the President, Mrs. Gramet.  Thank you everyone who has shopped on Amazon through my blog.  Because of you, it was possible to raise this money and help build our new library.  The luncheon and all of the auctions were really fun and helped raise a lot of money for the library, too.  I'm happy to announce that LSBR will be donating all of the funds from school year 2013-14 to FOWL again!  So keep shopping, and keep sending in essays!
