Whiz Kid of the Week: Brett Stein

The first in a series of columns giving attention to Lorton-area kids who deserve it

If you had a look at our Frugal Family column you know that today marks the beginning of some new, family-centered content. We expect that one of the highlights will be Whiz Kids, where we shine the spotlight on a great kid from our area. If you know a young person doing great things let us know. E-mail us at shawn@patch.com and we'll be sure to follow up. Without further ado, the first Whiz Kid, Brett Stein.
