Alaska Mountains & Coast (AKMC)

In Alaska, the wildlife and scenery is top-rated,

But students’ desire to see more cool sights can never be sated!

Through service, this young generation

Learned all about river conservation

While also helping build trails that are centrally located!

Colorado’s Rocky Mountains (CRM)

Today is the last day for this Colorado crew,

Their friendships and memories are still brand-new.

In Boulder they’ll eat

After service – quite a feat!

When they say goodbye tomorrow, we might boo-hoo!

Costa Rica Mountains & Coast (CRMC)

Today, the CRMC team took a nice stroll,

Their time together can only be described as droll!

After taking a dip,

So happy they could flip –

These photos are truly making our hearts whole!

Caribbean Service Puerto Rico (CSPR)

The CSPR crew worked on a small local farm,

Their environment is never lacking in charm!

After doing some work,

At a watering hole, they went berserk – 

But in a fun and safe way! We don’t mean to cause alarm.

Caribbean Service Virgin Islands (CSVI)

Tonight, the CSVI crew has their final dinners,

After volunteering with a turtle foundation, they feel like winners!

Salt and sand in their hair,

They couldn’t care – 

Because this group is full of grinners!

Europe Coast to Coast (ECC)

Tomorrow, to Germany this group says goodbye,

With 11 days left, this trip sure is flying by!

Through the Black Forest they go –

They really are in a flow –

Boy oh boy, me oh my, they sure are spry!

Iceland Mountains & Coast (IMC)

IMC took their challenge-day hike in stride,

Many spectacular views they have spied!

From peaks to ice fields to fjords,

They deserve all the awards.

Iceland truly is a great place to spend time outside!

Maine Coast Junior (MCJ)

A great and foggy hike is how MCJ started their day,

All while celebrating their van’s birthday!

The energy is high,

A lighthouse they stopped by.

Their word to describe the day is “hooray!”

New England Mountains & Coast (NEMC)

NEMC took a quick jaunt to a waterfall –

Safe to say – they had an absolute ball!

Spending time in the Whites,

Gave them many delights,

This crew is sure to be tuckered out by nightfall!

 

Northwest Mountains & Coast (NWMC)

Today, the NWMC crew took a ride on a ferry,

If you can’t tell from the photo, their time was merry.

Getting prepped for their float,

“This is awesome!” is a direct quote.

How excited are they for their days on a kayak? Very!

 

Pacific Coast (PC)

Their bike riding adventure has officially come to an end,

A day exploring San Francisco, we would definitely recommend!

They reflect on their final day,

Nearly 600 miles? Child’s play!

Through this trip, they can safely say they gained many a friend.

 

Pyrenees Mountains & Coast (PMC)

PMC had a transit day to the beach,

“We’re in el Port de la Selva!” They did screech.

Taking an early night,

They’re feeling more than alright –

Their hiking tomorrow is sure to be a peach!
