Mike was one of several kids from his school chosen to attend a program put on by the agricultural college of UK down in E'town for the past 2 days. I'm still fuzzy on exactly what they did, but this is from the website: "The American Private Enterprise Youth Program is developed and coordinated by the Kentucky Council of Cooperatives and the University of Kentucky, College of Agriculture, Agricultural Economics Department. A primary program objective is to provide high school juniors, sometimes seniors, with an appreciation of cooperatives as one of the important forms of doing business in the American enterprise system."
The kids competed against each other, and the top 3 are going to go to the next level program in Lexington this summer. Mike came in third, and one of his friends came in first, so he's really happy. He had a great time and said it was very educational! He's looking forward to the summer program already.
