Karly and I attended the Choices Rally at the Coyotes hockey arena. There were live performers, but most of all, Tank Jones was there. Tank Jones is the person who started the program ( http://www.whatischoices.com), and he also has a program called Totally D.U.D.E. going on at http://www.totallydude.org.
Tank started the Choices Festival and he has great partnerships with other companies, such as Rich Dad. The Festival consists of two days. The first day schools from all over the Phoenix area attend a rally, and later that night they had bands playing! Also, on the first day there were some speakers. There were four of them, one of them was Sharon Lechter, another was Miss Teen Arizona (part of the top ten) Emerald Zellers, and two other guys.
When Sharon spoke it was wonderful! She did a great job by being enthusiastic and she told everyone that they had the power over their lives and that they are the ones who control it. If you want to hear what she said, then click on the video below and watch the whole thing.
When we were talking to Sharon we met more people from the Rich Dad office. But, the coolest part of meeting new people was when we meet Emerald Zellers (www.emeraldzellers.com)! She is very nice, and learned of some of her accomplishments. Emerald just happened to have some pictures of herself so, she signed them for us! (I have mine taped to the wall.) We took pictures with Emerald and with Sharon, as you can see.
This program was designed for middle, high, and elementary schools, and from what we saw, there was promise of a good turnout tomorrow. Many schools were there, and I would say that there were about 5,000 kids there.
I am PUMPED UP to go to the festival tomorrow!

P.S. Kathy Grady made us some cool white shirts that have the Rich Dad emblem on the sleeve, and on the front it says Rich Family Ambassador!
