“There were so many ways this was a valuable experience. …it's such a cool, rugged history to share with everyone. Being able to have this experience with students/families/individuals who may not have had the time, resources, or awareness that these schooner trips occur and are for everyone, tourists and townies, was awesome. It's hard to keep from smiling & laughing. It is a priceless moment to experience.”
