 “We started not knowing how much we would learn.
But we became friends, much more than we thought we’d earn.
I hope we meet again someday, and until then so long, farewell, adios all my friends

It was a hot summer and I was bored and wanted something to do.
Then I heard about an opportunity to learn about assets and becoming a leader.
I signed up and I met some of the coolest kids.

I had no idea of what we were going to do.
40 assets to learn and games to play, so much to do and so little time.
Towers to build and snacks to eat. My summer is now complete.

It is over. I am sad. But now I know how to act right.
Sue and Paula are so smart, they were great instructors.
And know I am a leader and can go home and encourage others to build their assets.”
