Port Jefferson Patch Seeking Whiz Kid Nominations

Know a great kid who made Eagle Scout or did your local soccer team take the championship? They may be our next Patch Whiz Kid honoree.

Each week, Port Jefferson Patch will seek suggestions from readers for individual  kids, youth groups, teens, and even sports teams that wow us with their accomplishments. This is open for every grade level at every school in the Port Jefferson community.

We want to hear about these amazing children and teens and select one each week as the Patch Whiz Kid.  Submit your nomination in our comment box below or e-mail the information to editor Lon Cohen at lon.cohen@patch.com. Be sure to include all of the following information:
