Student Reflection
"Every time I see a spill on the river or someone harming the river in any way it hurts me to know that some people do not care about what they are doing. That makes me think that I could do something about that one day when I have the ability to do so myself."
-Victoria Swedin, On-Water Job Skills Program Apprentice, age 18
