“I had a BLAST with last week’s kids — so much fun. There was one young man on Thursday, “Joe,” a football player — we hit it off right away — he sat at my right-hand side. He was in the last group. 

All the other kids got up to get on the bus, and he stayed seated, looking out at the marsh, and said twice, “I don’t want to leave.” Big strong football player — it was sweet. Your program is touching these young people, sometimes touching the ones you least expect!”

— Volunteer from Kids in Kayaks program at Coastal Expeditions in Beaufort, SC
