Dear Friends,

 

We the teen group have noticed a change of scenery this week. The stark contrast of being here hit more personally and abruptly than we all expected. We're all missing our Silver Bay, but we're enjoying learning and exploring this new space. The simplicity of this space has left us to our own devices, and we've discovered new ways to connect on a more personal level.
