In 2012, BP helped recognize three high school students in Indiana with the opportunity to attend the U.S. Olympic Team Trials - Track & Field in Eugene, Oregon. At the event, the students met with Olympic athletes, such as BP's Team USA athlete ambassadors, Lolo Jones, Bryan Clay and Sanya Richards-Ross, and former track and field gold medalists, Bob Beamon and Michael Johnson.

Located in communities near BP's Whiting Refinery in Indiana, local high schools selected the students for their high academic performance, sports achievements and community service. The well-deserved students and their parents were awarded with a trip to the trials, sponsored by BP.
