Sam represented Dominion Trail at the Loudoun County Spelling Bee at Stone Bridge High School.
He got the first right, but went out on his second word (cacao). He was a bit upset, since Dad had always told him to ask for a sentence, which he did, but then the pronouncer blundered and gave him the definition of the word instead of using it in a sentence. This seemed to throw Sam off of his game and he did not spell the word correctly.
He had a nice receptioin the next day at school, being on the morning announcements and a general celebrity for the day.
