Heath Middle School seventh grader Eugene Lee created the patch that has been chosen to be on the front cover of the 2015 New Year's Card for the Challenger Learning Center in Paducah.

Framed copies of the card were recently presented to him during a special presentation at the school December 19. Lee created the patch last year in Brandy Roberts' science class while preparing for his class trip to the Challenger Center to fly a simulated space mission to the moon.

"Eugene's patch shows a rocket ship leaving Earth headed to the moon with the American flag as the rocket exhaust. It's a great representation of the moon mission," said Mellisa Duncan, CLC director.

The cards are sent to the contributors and patrons of the center including teachers, superintendents, legislators, campers, board members and donors. A card is even sent to the White House.

The center also chooses eleven other patches to include it its annual calendar.  The schools and students represented in the calendar include:

January- Mallory Adams, Lone Oak Intermediate School

February- Haylee Whitmore, North Calloway Elementary School

March- Cheyenne Parker, St. John's School

April- Axel Loaiza, Paducah Middle School

May- William Seay, St. Mary Middle School

June- Kayla Yates, Dixon Elementary School, Webster County
