Just before the dessert time, Michelle stood up to make an announcement. “We have a special guest who wanted to stop by and say hello,” she explained. “So it’s my honor to introduce the President of the United States.”

The President walked to each table, shaking hands with the winners and their family members. For the kids, this was the icing on the cake.” It was amazing to watch the President,” Kayla, one winner said. “His visit was a surprise and that ‘s a really big meal.”
