G1) Brain Warmer Upper
I have four wings, but cannot fly,
I never laugh and never cry;
On the same spot I'm always found,
toiling away with little sound.
What am I?

The $3000 scholarship, along with a $200 Tobi.com store credit, will be issued to a female undergrad student attending a community college or university. We have opened the scholarship to high school applicants in their senior year that will be attending college for the '17-'18 school year!

World-class baritone and Nashville recording artist David Britton, brings a unique sound to his audiences, by blending his big voice with a signature orchestral rock instrumentation.
