Say Goodbye to Summer





Today Alternatives in Action concluded their 2009 HOME Project Summer Leadership "Test Your Greatness" program. There were warm acknowledgments all around, a wonderful free burrito lunch courtesy of Chipotle in Alameda, t-shirt signings for the "Test Your Greatness" youth staff and a tangled web game that gave everyone an opportunity to share what they gained from the program. The 60 East Bay youth that participated in the intense 5 week program spent the past two nights showing the community their Presentations of Greatness, which included performances of graphic arts, drama, dance and music.

Now begins the big cleanup of the summer program to prepare for welcoming our new and returning BASE High School staff on Monday, August 3, 2009 and for the first day of school on Monday, August 24, 2009.
