through our list serve!  Congrats to both Morgan and his student.  I have

Hi Daniyal –

 

Congrats again on your grand prize win for your hydrogen video!

 

As you may recall, this award includes a  trip to Philadelphia for CHF’s 
Heritage Day, where a number of events will be happening and where your award 
will be presented, as well as a $5000 prize for your school’s science program 
provided by Dow Chemical Company.  We’ve got some planning to do in the next 
couple of weeks so I want to get that started as quickly as possible.

 

I want to confirm that you will be able to attend the awards ceremony and 
assorted merriment on Friday, April 8, 2011 at CHF in Philadelphia.  We will 
provide travel expenses and one night accommodation for you and a chaperone.  
Please let me know also how you would prefer to travel.  We would be happy to 
purchase train tickets or reimburse gas mileage, whatever works best for you.  
Since we will be starting the events on April 8 at 8:30 am (I’ll send you a 
detailed schedule soon), I would recommend coming into Philadelphia on the 
evening of Thursday, April 7.  We will make sure to put you at a hotel that is 
within an easy distance of CHF.  We’re located right in the heart of 
Philadelphia’s historic district, just a couple of blocks from Independence 
Hall and the Liberty Bell, so it’s a great place to stay.

 

That’s enough to get us started.  I look forward to hearing back from you soon 
to confirm details.  Congratulations again and thank you for participating in 
the contest!  Please don’t hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.

 

Best wishes,

Gigi
