"HI, Phil, thanks again to you and
the rest of the gang for another great session.
Sirena, the mom who was with me, was totally blown away by the
experience of watching
the students have such a great day. Her main comment kept being "wow!"
Even though I have been through many ROPES courses, and many counseling sessions as well,
that is always
my reaction! It is always powerful."
