A huge thank you to Nancy Rice, Dan Johnson and all of the incredible volunteers for providing such an amazing fishing and biking experience for our SWAG students!

Your time, generosity, and dedication created a day filled with adventure, learning, laughter, and memories that our youth will carry with them for years to come. Opportunities like these help our students build confidence, connect with nature, and experience activities they may not otherwise have the chance to enjoy.

On behalf of everyone at Students With A Goal (SWAG), thank you for investing in our youth and helping us create meaningful experiences that inspire growth and lifelong memories. We truly appreciate your partnership and look forward to many more adventures together!
