"There is more to us than we know. If we can be made to see it, perhaps for the rest of our lives we will be unwilling to settle for less." - Kurt Hahn, Founder of Outward Bound"
About me:
Outward Bound is the nation’s leading, nonprofit adventure-education organization for youth, teens, troubled teens, adults, families, and groups. We offer an array of exhilarating course activities in many of the beautiful and pristine wilderness areas throughout the United States and internationally. Our hundreds of courses emphasize personal growth through hands-on experience and challenges. Students of all ages develop self-reliance, responsibility, teamwork, confidence and compassion, as well as environmental and community stewardship.
From Crispus Attucks and four others killed in the Boston Massacre, to the latest of our soldiers to die in a far off country, may your sacrifice never be in vain.
The World is watching Denver this week, to see politicians, pundits, and protestors. Our basketball and hockey arena has been transformed into a speech emporium and worldwide media center. Our football stadium will rock, while our highways fall silent. It's the Democrat National Convention. Regardless of your politics, I hope you'll enjoy this clip I found on YouTube, created about a month before the convention, that gives some insights into the city of Denver and some of the preparation for the convention.
