Three Kurn Hattin Homes’ Students Win Patriot’s Pen Essay Contest

April 17, 2023

Pictured (l-r) are: Tegan Kilburn, grade 8, who won 1st Place, and 2nd Place at the District Level; Trace Kline, grade 8, who won 2nd Place; and Oluwambamise Precious Adedji, grade 8, who won 3rd Place.

Richard Campbell, State Commander from the Brattleboro VFW–Post 1034, presented awards to three Kurn Hattin Homes’ students who had submitted essays for the 2023 Patriot’s Pen Veteran Essay Contest. The theme was, “My Pledge to the Veterans.” Tegan Kilburn, who won 1st Place and 2nd Place at the District Level, wrote, “I pledge to make sure that nobody forgets our Veterans. They have taken huge risks to ensure tranquility and everyone’s safety. We wouldn’t live in as much peace as we live in today if it wasn’t for our Veterans. I will continue to learn about the amazing things they did just so people today could live in peace. I pledge to make sure others know that without our heroic Veterans we wouldn’t live in peace like I do now.”
