Coach Miron, This is Izzy (Israel) Santiago from Gurnee, IL. I do not know if you remember me and my brother came out to your camp last December to learn from you. I want to thank you very much and to tell you that I made some goals and I am doing very well. Last year at IKWF Midget State I was not able to make it to the second day to get a medal and I felt really bad. I told myself that I did not want to feel like that again so after coming back from your camp I promise myself that I would work harder this year to get to that second day. Well I've got good news. I made some many people proud after placing 1st at my regionals and 1st at sectionals, I went to Midget State and made it to the second day and placed 3rd. My only loss was to the Champ in the semi-finals. I want to thank you and the friends I made there (Martinez, Caleb Romero, Dakota and the others) for helping me and to show me that I can be a better by believing I can. I hope to see you soon again at one of your camps. I sent you some pictures of Midget State. I'm working on sending you one next year when I am in the Novice Division winning the top spot. Thanks, Izzy
