These 30 people were not the only ones with star potential. We are grateful for the numerous applicants, but are also sad to have to turn down some of our other applicants. We wish that we could have brought ALL of them on our team. We hope that they re-apply next year and/or connect with us down the road to let us know how you are doing. We are always happy to serve as a sounding board.
