After many weeks of frustration, determination, hard work and countless attempts (and lots of power screaming!) Erin, one of our Squadlets sent her first 8A! After having watched Erin progress on the route little by little, some days getting further than others, slowly linking parts of the route together, she finally conquered it, achieving something amazing! What is even more incredible is that only a few months ago Erin was terrified of leading - WELL DONE ERIN!! Here's to many more 8As and lots of crushing!
