"Some of the teens from the drug rehab ski day were pretty rough and had definitely perfected 'building walls' to keep people away from them. However after a couple of runs on the tubes and spending 10-20 minutes working with them individually to help them get up behind the boat on a wakeboard, the walls came down. At the end of the day I was able to do a talk and encourage them to persevere in life the same was they did in learning to get up on the board. If they could have the same determination in life the would able to overcome any obstacle they might face."
