     How did Tricia become interested in politics? "My mom MADE me go to a TARS meeting and I enjoyed it and continued to go to the meetings. Then when the 2004 Bush/Kerry election Campaigning 'stuff' came up, it looked like fun and I decided to do some of the things and that turned into doing everything. I learned that politics can be fun and now I enjoy them alot! I attended 2005 Teen pact and now I understand how the political process works and I enjoy politics even more."  Tricia is also a Home STARS Ronald Reagan Award recipient.

Quote: Don't let anybody look down on you because you are young

Most Admired Person: Barbie! (Just kidding.) That would probably have to be Hannah (Samuels mother) from the Bible because she wanted a child so bad that she told God she would have a son, teach him to serve Christ and then give her son Samuel to God. I admire her because she had so much faith in God that she continued to pray, serve Christ and trust him until God gave her son. When God gave her Samuel she was faithful to give him back even though she loved him so much.
