LCA part of the U S Chamber of Commerce National Conference

The Lincoln's Challenge Academy Color Guard will post the colors at the U S Chamber of Commerce National Conference to be held in Chicago from 3-5 May 2009.  Three graduates, David Ortiz-Class 27, Andres Hernandez-Class 12, and Eric Bogan-Class 19, have been asked to speak at this event on how the Academy changed their lives.  The Academy will also have a booth set up, manned by cadets, who will be available to answer questions.   We want to thank the US Chamber of Commerce for providing our cadets with this opportunity.  A special thanks goes out to Mr. Ernie Gonzalez, Ms Caitlin Cordella and Mr. John Permaul for their hardwork and in believing in the Challene Program.
