On that day in March, Cameron, along with 1,200 or so of his classmates, was lined up in the school parking lot to spell out the word "Coke." Photographers in a crane captured the moment on film as Coca-Cola executives, who had flown in to participate in Coke-themed events throughout the day, looked on.
