Congratulations, Marissa!
I hope you continue to have fun and exciting challenges with amateur radio. You can certainly take it with you for the rest of your life, and it will always be there when you get a hankerin' to get on the air even if you have to be away from it for a while throughout the various stages of your life. It is gratifying that you are inspired, at least in part, by what AMSAT does.

Hello Alabama Section,

This year, the ARRL Alabama Youth Committee is pleased to announce the 2019 ARRL Alabama Outstanding Youth Ham Award recipient. This particular Amateur Radio operator gazes at and studies the skies almost daily. She has a deep interest in satellite communication and loves sharing that interest with others. Her passion is evident in awards she has received, forums where she has presented, along with the activities in which she participates.
The 2019 Alabama Outstanding Youth Ham Award goes to: Marissa Robledo W4AQT
Marissa is a twelve year old General class license-holder who lives in Montgomery, AL and is devoted to consistently learning and growing in the great hobby of Amateur Radio.

Please join us at the 2019 Huntsville Hamfest on August 17th, 2019 at 12:30pm for the formal presentation of this award to a deserving young Amateur Radio operator.
