Commander Haeseker,
I am proud to convey that our 1st District Contestant, Sophie Hughs, a Grosse Pointe South Senior, was a finalist in the State Contest today held in Lansing at the American Legion Department of Michigan Headquarters. She was sponsored by 1st District Grosse Pointe Post 303. She did a great job representing the 1st District. As Chairman of the Americanism Committee and her coach, I am really proud of her and her efforts. She was an awesome speaker and did a fantastic job. Her speech was right on target!!!!! She is a talented young individual taking honor courses, teaching Sunday School, and even holding down a part-time job at TCBY in Grosse Pointe. She has not yet decided on a college yet and is still in interviewing process. She will do well.
Sincerely,
Dan McCrary
1st District Americanism Committee
Grosse Pointe Post 303 Commander
