It's almost Tulip Time.

Dear U*S*Kids

I run for the Austin Striders of Austin, Texas. I am eleven years old and run the 400-meter in 57.43 seconds. Pretty fast, right?

I have a paper about last year's Scholarship Races (at your Fitness Farm). I was wondering if you could keep in touch with me. Please write me back about the next upcoming scholarship race.

Dear Stephon:

Congratulations on your time for the 400-meter run. And three cheers for the Austin Striders of Austin, Texas!

The next Tulip Time Scholarship Races at the Fitness Farm will take place on Saturday afternoon, April 22, when we expect all the tulips to be in full bloom.

We hope you'll come up for the races. Bet you can't guess who's going to be there!
