Mar 11: BKL Festival Stories: Lauren Jacobs
Earlier this week I put out a call for Festival Stories! I urged club leaders to encourage their kids to send me a story of their Festival. Everyone loves a different part of this event: it could be about racing, staying in the hotel, swimming in the pool, building a jump, eating lollipops, getting dressed up, marching in the parade. Please send along your story! Photos are also greatly appreciated and really jazz up a piece.
