This week, our keynote speaker was Jeremiah Brown,  Olympic Silver Medalist.  Jeremiah told the story of his journey from discovering a sport on TV, to winning a Olympic Silver Medal in London, 2008 with the Canadian mens rowing eights.  And the whole journey was only 4 years!  He told us an inspiring story and taught us many of the lessons he had to learn to succeed.
 
Jeremiah has written his story in a book called The Four Year Olympian.  More details at https://the4yearolympian.com/
 
Thank you Jeremiah for making us all proud at the Olympics.   And thank you in particular for helping us learn what is takes to succeed.
