⁠
Q: What makes WA special in your opinion?⁠
A: "The WA community is special for the way we have the desire to learn from each other. Whether that be teaching each other hard skills like surfing, or learning the riddle "4 is the magic number", how to play chess, or stories about each others experiences. This community truly embodies the vision to stay curious, and explore outside of our comfort zone."⁠

Fun Fact about Kelly: She's running a marathon this spring! 🏃🏻‍♀️ If you see her this summer, ask her how it went!⁠

Here's a quick Q&A with Addie-Grace...
Q: What brings you back for another summer with WA?
A: "I loved my last summer with WA, and want to grow, learn, and play outside with awesome groups of students again! Getting to see kids get out of their comfort zones, try new things, and make new friends is so rewarding. I benefitted so much from outdoor education and overnight camp as a kid, and it means a lot to be able to help provide that same experience for kids today!"
