Talon's Events for ISC

This year was Talon's first year to ever attend ISC (International Student Convention)!  He earned positions in 5 different categories at the state level;  Mixed Quartet, Small Ensemble, Boy's 400 Meter Relay, Boy's 1600 Meter and Clown Act.  He did well and we are VERY proud of him!!!  He earned a 4th place medal with his Clown Act, out of 19 clowns, YEA!  He was 1 of the 4, out of our 14 students to bring home a medal!  He is already looking forward to next year and trying to come up with ideas : )

Clown Act

Wanting his secret to be kept quite about him stealing the beer he found, to add to his bag of sins

Trying to figure out what the "red stuff" was on the cloth that was found hanging on the cross, not knowing yet it was Christ's blood that was shed for him.

Asking for forgiveness!
