Ruth's Reflections 

A week before Christmas Ruth was called down to the office and given a flier giving her info about the Council Reflections Awards Ceremony.  She got no other information, but we took from that that maybe one of her four Reflections entries had won at the school and gone on to the council level.  So on Monday we drove across town to see if we could figure it out.  They had an open-house where all the entries were on display in the cafeteria so we went on a treasure hunt to see if we could find any of Ruth's entries. In the end we located three entries for Ruth: film, photography and art.  There was a lot of competition so we didn't expect much going into the awards ceremony, but surprise, surprise, Ruth won for her film and got honorable mention in both photography and art.

The whole reason Ruth does Reflections is to get prizes, and so far she's gotten one movie gift card and three subway gift cards.
