Over the last week, I have been traveling to each of our three groups, spending a few days at each site.  Beyond the tremendous work that  has completed in their respective projects, I have been touched by the communities that have been built.  Each group considers itself to be a family; a diverse spectrum of young leaders that have come together to support one another, help each other grow and build bridges between themselves and their Native American hosts. 

As the groups depart the Reservation today, there is deep sense of accomplished, as well as sadness, leaving their host families. 

All participants are healthy and happy.  Stay in touch for more pictures upon our return to base camp later today.
