Emma & Isabel Competes for Youth Athlete of the Year.

Hello Everyone,

My daughters, Emma (13) and Isabel (12), are currently competing in Colossal’s Youth Athlete of the Year competition, a nationwide campaign raising funds and awareness for the Why Not You Foundation.

Through this competition, Emma and Isabel have had the privilege of sharing their passion for golf. We are reaching out to ask for our community's support. It would mean a great deal to us if the city could help share their journey or encourage community members to vote daily via their competition page:

Winning with the backing of our community would be an incredible honor for Emma and Isabel and would allow them to continue representing on a national level. We would love the opportunity to feature their story through official city channels to help inspire other local youth to pursue their athletic passions.

I am more than happy to provide additional details or to connect you directly with the competition organizers if needed.

Thank you for your time and consideration, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts.

Best regards, Karem Padilla and Sang Hwang.
