ONE OF THE ‘VERY BEST’— David Coons, a 13-year-old from Simi Valley, receives a certificate from Mayor Paul Miller at a recent city council meeting. David was one of 24 youths, out of 600 candidates across the U. S., who received an award in the Nestle Very Best in Youth Program. Those recognized are exceptional young people, ages 10 to 18, who’ve shown academic excellence and made tangible contributions to the quality of life in their communities. David raised over $26,000 for victims of Hurricane Katrina, funds that will be matched by Nestle.
