Sons of Utah Pioneer Essay Contest

All fourth graders at 3 different schools were given the opportunity to write about an ancestor.  It had to be at least 300 words and at least a grandparent or farther back.  Grandma Carolyn happened to be sleeping over so we asked her to tell us her story.  Porter wrote it out and typed it up.  The SOUP picked 20 winners and Porters essay was one of them.  He got to go to a banquet and they gave him some valuable coins and a stamp.  They said that if he were to hold onto them for a long time they could be worth a lot!  Porter was SO excited he was one of the winners!  Congrats Porter!
