DECA winner

I would like to send out various thank you's to the community. After my DECA experience, I have received copious amounts of positive feedback.

First, I would like to thank my advisors, Jeremy Anderson and Michelle Kuntz. Mr. Anderson introduced me DECA and readily prepared me for the competition. Michelle planned fun activities for us to participate in while in Kentucky. Both gave up much time to chaperone and were encouraging throughout the competition.

My teammates deserve huge thanks for being supportive and patient during the competition, and for waiting out those painfully long ceremonies. When we arrived back in Whitefish, I received congratulatory remarks, signs, flowers, and goodies from my teachers, co-workers and friends. From Jerry House down to my previous Muldown teachers, they all deserve a thank you for their kindness.

Also I owe Jackie Fuller thanks for her enthusiasm as well as posting my results. I would not have been able to participate had it not been for all the businesses that purchased ads in the spring/winter Whitefish High School Sports that funded my expenses.

Having had this abundant support makes me extremely grateful to be part of our Whitefish community.
