This session’s Squidu Challenge winning NEW Giants have been given a NEW topic for their Giant Squid Community Showcase spots.

Learning from the Greats

I’ve asked the new Giants to tell me about the ONE lensmaster or Lens that inspired, encouraged, or empowered, them to do all of the hard work required to become a Giant Squid lensmaster.

Here’s what NEW Giant (Mimi) GrowWear had to say:

“Although I wanted to become a Giant Squid a long time ago, there was never a solid plan. I just figured that I would eventually get there.

Then, RocketMoms came along. This group is headed by Lensmaster bdkz (Bonnie). I admire the way she motivates and how she inspires — not just me, but all of the RocketMoms. My journey to becoming a Giant Squid really started with her. She’s the one who led me off of the footpath and pointed me toward the freeway.

My hat is off to Bonnie.”

(Mimi) GrowWear is also our newest addition to the Giant Squid Greeter Team. She will be hosting her own Potential Giant Squid Challenge Team this time around. (More news about the September 2009 Greeter challenge available soon!)

Here’s a small sampling of the 50 awesome lenses  GrowWear created to become one of our newest Giant Squid Lensmasters.

Be sure to visit one (or all) of her lenses to congratulate her on both of these huge accomplishments!
