arc program rocks the granite state

10 students from around california - dos palos, atwater, livingston, oakland, san jose, and los olivos - gave it their all this summer. we spent 40 days in yosemite, backpacking, rock climbing, swimming, studying english, and learning about ourselves. it was a privilege to be involved, and to get to know these exceptional teenagers.
