Daughter's Grand Canyon Trip

Recommended Posts

Our 15 year old daughter is going on a 10-day rafting trip in the Grand Canyon this summer through Grand Canyon Youth.  Its a great program that exposes kids to the outdoors in various aspects, including conservation of ecosystems and is a science immersion program.  One of the requirements for this trip is that she is required to raise the money, herself, to cover half of the cost of the trip.  She needs to raise $550 on her own.  She has opted to follow in her brother's footsteps; however, she is making jewelry instead of tying flies.  She's gotten quite good at making earrings and, at this time, is limited to only earrings.  She (and my wife and I) would appreciate you considering helping her.  These are great for your wives, daughters, girlfriends, nieces, and self (no judging if you're not a woman who wants some of these).  Like when Jacob was tying flies for his blackbelt journey, this is purely donation and she'll make you a pair of earrings for whatever you think is fair.  Pics of what she's made so far are below.  And, yes, my wife was an ear model in a former life!

Thanks, again, for considering helping her.
