Lessons Learned

January 26, 2016 by Brent Freeman

IMG_2444It was life or death!  At first I was questioning if I should go on the trip or not.  A week in the woods with bears, no showers, and no bathrooms; no thank you!  But I signed the papers anyway.  I am so glad that I did.  This trip was so fun and life changing.  You learn many very important life lessons.  Sacrifices will be made because you must learn that your actions effect the whole group and the environment.  You’ ll learn teamwork and you’ll have many many choices to make and have to learn leadership.
