Jamie Corpus, Cedarcrest High School (WA), TAS/WA NITCP Tour 2007/08

"Your group that recently visited our school Cedarcrest High School here in Duvall, WA were such a great group of boys!  We truly enjoyed meeting these young men and their coaches and the opporunity to share a meal of pizza with them afterwards.

Many of us mothers were very impressed with how genuinely nice and polite I must say, to everyone.  And of course the entire cheerleading team were quite smitten to say the least.  And I also want to say what a wonderful thing you are doing for these boys!!  What an awesome experience for them to remember always.  I would only hope that someday our boys here would have such an opportunity!"
