The CPGO Competition was great as always. I really appreciate you creating this space for the teams. They really

seem to rise to the occasion and get a lot out of it. I very much enjoy this partnership and the growth and

engagement it fosters for my students!! Thanks!

Richard, I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for giving me the opportunity to participate as a judge in the CPGO competition. I think it is a great thing you and Castle Placement have put together. I think back to my presentation days in college, and I never had the luxury to present to professionals like you offered these students. Well done and thank you again for letting me be a part of it!
