I got a great opportunity to interview a former young reporter, Dee Catalan, a member of the Tucson Village Farm (TVF). Dee helps out with their program for kids. The TVF was formed in 2010 by Leza Carter and Elizabeth Sparks. It was made so that kids would learn where their food came from and to create hands-on experiences for them.

In June, I participated in the Arizona State Jiu- Jitsu Championship in Phoenix. I competed in both the Gi and No-Go divisions. To prepare I had to practice every day. For one hour a day, I practiced moves such as the scissor sweep, take downs, and chokes. I was ready for the big day!

The event room was really big with lots of people. I got to watch a few fights before my matches. I won my first fight in Gi. For my next in the semifinals, I came in with hope but I lost. It wasn’t enough. I earned a bronze medal in that division.
