On Sunday, the NJP members wrote me a thank-you card. I wanted to share it here because it meant a lot to me. It means so much when you learn you can make a difference in others' lives.

I also wanted to share it because it's important that our community know just what class acts these juniors are. In my time orienteering, I haven't seen a team of juniors this motivated or with this much team spirit.

I've worked as a teacher in different capacities for most of my adult life. And out of the groups I've taught, these juniors are the ones I've enjoyed working with the most.

Final long effort with three loops of Mt. Tam to make sure the body and mind are ready for the Hudson Highlands.

I kept the pace quite relaxed. Don't feel tired at all. I actually wanted to go out for two more loops.
