We’ve posted a few times on the Write to Lead essay contest for Colorado youth, and it looks like you’ve been reading… and writing!  The essays have already started coming in, and it’s great to see the big ideas that Colorado students have about leadership and the future of our country.  The Boulder Daily Camera recently wrote an article on Patrick Garrett, a Boulder High School junior who penned the very first Write to Lead entry. Take a look at the Camera’s article here.

The deadline for Write to Lead is April 18, so if you haven’t started writing yet, check out the Write to Lead page at DemConvention.com here and watch our video from the launch of the contest here.  Finalists will have the opportunity to serve as ambassadors to state delegations from across the country, and two Presidential Winners will attend the 2008 Democratic National Convention in Denver – so don’t miss out on this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!
