Puja Maharaj & Summer Elmazi: Responsibility Vs. The Law



Ambassadors are officially fired up about leading themselves and their groups! This morning, HOBY had the privilege of welcoming old friends Puja Maharaj and Summer Elmazi into an intimate discussion followed by a mock trial in which the ambassadors nominated their representatives and debated a made-up case. The ambassadors found this activity to be comforting as acceptance and respect was shared among them. Ambassador Hailey Green remarked, "it's so cool that we can share our opinions without hostility, but with calmness. We can speak our minds and then let it brush off our backs." Her peer, Lexi Lassiter, added, "people did try to persuade others but without forcing their views upon them." 

Getting ready for mock trials 
Having not met before, yet relating to one another, the girls agreed it was both the biggest and calmest group discussion they've ever had and very unlike the experiences had in their hometowns. How OUTSTANDING is it that our ambassadors are finding their niche with us? The best is yet to come!

HOBY Hugs,
Kara Silvey
