Yes, normally summer doesn't make you think of work right away but in this case work is participating in white water rafter guide school. Thanks to 10 friends of mine I will be able to take part in an 11 day guide school and later on I will volunteer for them. The rafting outfitter is call Project Great Outdoors aka PGO and it is a fantastic non-profit. Mission priority for them is to take inner-city youth from San Francisco, Oakland and other bay area places, outdoors and down the river on a day trip and sometimes an overnighter, at a cost of free or fairly affordable. (I will check on that). From what I have been told a majority of the kids have never been to the wild outdoors so this educational experience outfitter means a lot.
I would like to thank my friends who pitched in to help pay for the guide school, I would not be going if it wasn't for them. This goes to show that our community can be successful when everyone is willing to pitch in and help.
Here is to the first phase of becoming a guide and here is a link to the organization...
