Ben's presentation went off without a hitch last weekend! Will, Charlie and I found out about a live stream of the event in the few seconds before the start of the forum, so we were able to watch it, too!
It was a full house for the forum...about 350 people, and there was a great group of youth speakers, with a variety of interesting topics, including a 10 year old talking about radios and components he has built and tested. Ten years old! It was awesome to see the enthusiasm and confidence in these kids!
The whole trip was a great experience for Ben, and he met a bunch of like-minded kids who were able to talk intelligently about all the technical, science-y things he loves!

and other gifts, including a new handheld radio for his contribution to the forum.

My kids, especially Cyrus, love it when they find a group of like-minded kids to talk things over with. I'm glad Ben enjoyed the whole talk (and he looks very tall!)!
