Second-Generation...can you believe it?
This blog post is a repeat from the blog over on my MindStretch Travel Adventures site, so no need to read if you subscribe to both. But for those of you who only have a TrailRidge background...this announcement was a long time in coming.
I mentioned a while back that the upcoming Wyoming-Montana trip will have several sets of brothers. Today another set enrolled...and these two guys mark a red-letter day for MTA and TrailRidge Mountain Camp. Ras and Becker Andry not only become the next two boys to sign up for a wonderful trip...but they also become the first SECOND GENERATION campers for my program!
You see - their daddy, Michael, went with me on some adventures when I first got started in the travel camp program (late 1970s) and was a counselor at my residential camp in its first years of operation in the early 1980's.

That's Michael on the right at TrailRidge at our "Jay Jalenak's World Famous Las Vegas Casino Night." Michael Andry, looking pretty dapper with his bandana tie (a requirement for our high-class casino operations) is joined in this photo by a then-fellow-New Orleans counselor, Michael Reily. (You should know that our casino night operations almost got us in trouble with the local law, but that's another story.
So welcome Becker and Ras. I'm excited you'll be joining us this summer and officially taking on the role of my first-ever second generation campers! It's hard to imagine I started these programs in 1978 and have never missed a summer.
For anyone thinking about joining us this summer, there's one opening left.
