Fuel Up to Play 60 has been on my side for nearly 3 years, and it all started in elementary school. When I first heard of the Fuel Up to Play 60 program on my school’s PA announcement, I didn’t know what it meant. It came to my personal interest, so I decided to go. And to this day, I’ve never regretted this program in my life.
I went to the local summits, in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (at Lincoln Financial Field), which was an awesome experience. I met players in the NFL and even got to see the Eagles’ locker room. I was always motivated from the top elite players, who inspired me. This was AWESOME!
It all hit me last year in 6th Grade, after I surpassed Level Four on the Fuel Up to Play 60 website, and I had the awesome opportunity to attend the Fuel Up to Play 60 2018 National Summit as a State Ambassador! Super cool, right? Last year’s Summit was held in Atlanta, Georgia (Super Bowl LIII location) for 4 days. There, I met my role models. The top tier players.
All of these events lead up to something.
INSPIRING and LEADING: I can show people the path.
KINDNESS: I can give to others.
CHANGE: I can do anything I wish to succeed in.
These impacted my perspective on how I view the world to this day. You and I can do this whenever and where ever. The application for this year’s Summit is open now through March 24, so take your chance and fill out your own!
