I personally enjoyed my experience because I met many new people and was able to capture the amazing words from our motivational speakers. If I had the choice I would have loved to stay in Maryland much longer. Opportunities like this don&#8217;t come around often, so I made the best of my time! I am very grateful to have been chosen for this amazing experience. One thing I truly enjoyed was the food. They had every food you could possibly think of, and every day something delicious was being served! The rooms we stayed in were very comfortable, I could literally stay in there for days! One the most greatest memories was when we visited the U.S. Capitol to meet Senators Thom Tillis and Richard Burr which was a very interesting experience. The only thing I disliked about this trip was walking in the hot sun around D.C. We learned several valuable lessons, especially involving how to handle peer relationships and keeping a positive mindset.  I plan to incorporate the ideas I learned at the Summit into my daily routine.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/youthnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/10868558_04_2016_05_58_52_73831455_National_PAL_Logo_2016.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/youthnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/10868558_04_2016_05_58_52_73831455_National_PAL_Logo_2016-265x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"265\" height=\"300\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-446\" srcset=\"https:\/\/youthnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/10868558_04_2016_05_58_52_73831455_National_PAL_Logo_2016-265x300.jpg 265w, https:\/\/youthnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/10868558_04_2016_05_58_52_73831455_National_PAL_Logo_2016-768x870.jpg 768w, https:\/\/youthnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/10868558_04_2016_05_58_52_73831455_National_PAL_Logo_2016-904x1024.jpg 904w, https:\/\/youthnews.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/10868558_04_2016_05_58_52_73831455_National_PAL_Logo_2016.jpg 950w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 265px) 100vw, 265px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our trip to Maryland was very amazing and everyone had a great time.
