“I enjoyed meeting the other deaf and hard of hearing students and meeting our instructors. I couldn't have asked for a better duo! There were many different walks of life being represented in our diverse group. I'm so glad that everyone, including myself, had an unforgettable experience. I was happy to see others in our group persevere, and challenge themselves both physically, and mentally.”
