Hi! My name is Emma T. and I am a first grade student in Wisconsin. On December 15, 2013, I received the trip of a lifetime from Fuel Up to Play 60 through their Away Game Experience Contest. I was picked to win a trip to Dallas to see my favorite team, the Green Bay Packers, play the Dallas Cowboys!
I had never been on an airplane before or to a professional football game, so I was very excited! We arrived at AT&T Stadium ahead of time so that we could walk around and check it out. I was amazed at how big it was (especially the scoreboard)! Once the game started, my dad and I had so much fun cheering on our team. It was a really exciting game and I was so happy that the Packers won. Even though Aaron Rodgers didn’t get to play because he was injured, I got to watch Jordy Nelson play. It was a trip that I will never forget. I am so happy that Fuel Up to Play 60 gave me this great experience.
I will continue to help other students in my school achieve healthy lifestyles through healthy eating and physical activity. My school was awarded $500 from Fuel Up to Play 60 and the Wisconsin Milk Marketing Board to use towards healthy food for our cafeteria. I am going to be on a team of students that will work with my physical education teacher, Mr. Mlodik, to plan special Breakfast in the Classroom days. Mr. Mlodik will also use some of the money to buy new equipment for me and my classmates to use. He will be buying new things for our gym classes that will help us stay active through dance too! I will work with Mr. Mlodik to teach my classmates about the new gym equipment in our school.
Thank you so much to Fuel Up to Play 60 for giving me a trip that I will never forget. I also want to thank them for giving money to my school so other students can hopefully lead healthier lives. Special thanks to my dad for going with me on the trip. Finally, I want to thank Mr. Mlodik for bringing Fuel Up to Play 60 to our school and encouraging all of the kids to be active and eat healthy foods. Hopefully more kids will take part in this awesome program!
Go Packers!
