Do you know a special kid?

We want to recognize accomplishments big and small, whether it be completing a special project, dedicating oneself to an interesting hobby, or making Eagle Scout.

And Rosati's Pizza of Yorkville is joining us. They'll give each kid who is named a Yorkville Patch Whiz Kid a free pizza.

Each week, Yorkville Patch will seek suggestions from readers for individual kids, youth groups, teens and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments. We want to hear about these amazing children and teens and select one each week as the Whiz Kid.
