TRiO 2006 Spring Retreat and Recognition Ceremony a Success :
The Spring Retreat and Recognition Ceremony held April 26, 2006 at Bay Mills Resort was a sensation. Troy and Karen Stende, keynote motivational speakers, had TRiO students participate in the motivational activities by getting to know each other. They also encouraged everyone to let the people who have made a difference in their lives know just how important they are. Some of the other speakers included Mickey Parish, Kelsey Bellville and Mike Brown. Pictures at bottom of Newsletter.
