Titles are for the awake...

Good Morning all.

To catch you all up, I have a job. I am teaching sailing for the Judd Goldman Adaptive Sailing Program in conjunction with the Chicago Parks District. The goal of the program is to open sailing to people with disabilities. All they need to have is a willingness to learn and the ability to float comfortably and safely in a life jacket for 5 min.
So far, I've met all sorts of wonderful and amazing people. It's a very different experience from teaching children,  but it is just as rewarding. Seeing a blind person sail, or someone who can barely walk... It gives them a new freedom and sense of confidence. It's a fantastic program.

And on a side note, check out the amazing progress of the World Opera Project, the project that Jason is working on.
