Hello, everyone!
I hope you're all having a fantastic day! I've got some exciting news to share with you all!
In March, I partnered with the Department of Children and Families (DCF) and CT Family Day on my statewide poster contest. I asked you to submit artwork that answered the question: In what ways do you and your family stay physically active? As your Kid Governor, one of the best parts of my job is seeing all the incredible creativity and talent that the 5th graders of Connecticut possess. And let me tell you, we received some truly outstanding submissions in the poster contest! I'm thrilled to announce that my amazing Cabinet Members and I have completed the challenging task of reviewing all the 5th-grade poster entries and selecting the top 13 posters to advance to the finals! Trust me when I say it wasn't easy, but it was my favorite part of our April Cabinet Meeting. Each poster submission was creative and brought its own fantastic fitness ideas. It was so hard to select the finalists. Now, you're probably wondering, "What happens next?" Well, hold onto your hats, 5th graders, because the excitement is far from over! I will be collaborating with DCF to determine the ultimate winner from among these amazing finalists. Together, we'll carefully examine each poster and consider creativity, originality, and of course, meaningful fitness ideas! To all the incredibly talented 5th-grade artists who submitted their work, thank you for participating in this really fun opportunity! I can honestly say I am inspired by the awesome job you all did. I am also so thankful for my Cabinet Members for making the tough process of narrowing down the poster submissions a little easier.
Lastly, I am grateful to the Connecticut Democracy Center for working hard to make the poster contest—which is the second point of my platform —a reality!
