During 7/25/07-8/3/07 we have a group of 7 blind/visually impaired girls here at AE. I must say that working with them is truly inspiring. The level of trust and drive it takes for a completely blind young lady to complete the entire ropes course with just a little verbal direction from the ground is phenomenal. They have fearlessly hiked 2 hours into Tenderfoot Falls in a rainstorm. They have defeated me in a game of hide-and-go-seek. The have rappelled down a 140' rock face! The list goes on and on, and everything they were involved in they participated with vigor and enthusiasm.



I am truly proud to call these inspirational young women my friends.
