To the Editor:

I would like to thank you for giving me and the other students the opportunity to compete in the first Young Columbus Quiz Bowl.

I know it was costly and time-consuming, and I acknowledge that. The experience will be one I will remember, and the fun I had was tremendous. I met a lot of new friends Saturday, and everyone there was really nice. The whole thing was an honor, and I hope to participate next year.
