"I really want to commend you and your group for putting on this event with true excellence!"
10 students at a time, go through the 1/4 mile trail with a new group beginning every 10 minutes. The trail experience has two buildings. The trail is approximately one hour with a 10 minute initial introduction and 10 minute follow up session. Total time - approximately 80 minutes.
"It was powerful...to be able to put yourself in their shoes for a moment. Thank you for this learning experience."
