Fantastic experience. Thank you so much." - Pamela Marta, teacher @ Neosho High School, Neosho, MO |

| "I was very impressed by the program Saturday. Winston Churchill was a great leader during the World Wars. I saw how difficult his job must have been. Also by the end, I had a greater understanding of Churchill's personality. He demonstrated the characteristics that made him a good leader in all parts of his life. He was very determined in his pursuit of admittance to a military academy. Churchill took the entrance exam three times before he got in! He was self-motivated, learning more about politics while in the military. Winston Churchill was an amazing man, and I feel that this program has really helped me to see that." - Becca, Smithton Middle School, 7th grade, speaking about the leadership tour |
