           The high point of the 2013 National Braille Challenge was Patrick
        Warburton, "Puddy" from Seinfield, as popular celebrity emcee who
        presented Harley with his third-place award for junior varsity topped
        off by a champion style “high-five”.

           When   interviewed  by the  “Community   Impact  Newspaper”  in
        2013   about   the  Annual   Braille   Challenge,   Harley,   who   had   just
        completed   ninth   grade,   recommended   to   all   visually   impaired
        students. “I would encourage others to read in Braille because it helps
        you gain more independence in your reading ability. Also, personally,
        I like being able to read Braille because I'm able to give voices to
        characters in stories rather than have a narrator choose their own
        voices.”
