Warner Robins Little Leaguers meet President

Warner Robins' Little League world champions met President Bush in a ceremony Thursday at the White House. It was part of a whirlwind day for the boys in Washington D.C.

According to the Macon Telegraph, the team caught an early morning flight to the nation's Capital. First stop was a visit to Capitol Hill for a meeting with Georgia Senators Johnny Isakson and Saxby Chambliss--followed soon after by a pizza break. Next was the visit to the White House, where the boys spent a few minutes with the President and had pictures taken in the Oval Office.

This trip is just another in a long line since Warner Robins beat Japan in the Little League title game in late August. The team recently returned from a visit to the Kennedy Space Center, where they were special guests of NASA to watch last week's launch of the space shuttle.
