"Kellen was an incredibly skilled individual and a true asset to our program. He just loved being out there with people and was a natural teacher. I thought the world of him. He was truly an all around good guy – kind, funny and smart," Chris Read, ASC Program Director.

"Adam was such an amazing spirit. He impressed all who worked with him. When we discuss Adam, people say he was extremely fun on lessons, willing to learn and help. It is rare to find someone so compassionate who elevates people's spirits with his enthusiasm. There are some people that stand out in this line of work who can really advance and find a place in therapeutic recreation or wilderness therapy. Adam was one of those," ASC Program Supervisor JJ Hanratty.
