Ridgeview’s first fly fishing experience! Our Adventure Coordinator, Kenny Davis, has built a strong recover and therapeutic based curriculum for our two campuses. We are fortunate to be recipients of a TWRA grant that funds each of our kids fishing license. We also have many donors that support this program that we will do a separate post on.

Sharing a poem written by a recent program graduate. A little insight to his journey! Shared with permission.

Poem on Hope and Optimism

To the future
from the past
you need a suture
so things cast

Things get better
even after you met her
though you think you’re screwed
things will be fine, dude

Out of the dark
into the light
seize the day
flee the night

See the best in yourself
it’s okay to need help
you’re always feeling improved
thanks to the fact you’ve moved

no need to distract your mind
when you say, “I am kind”
no need to fix self-esteem
in recovery, you know what I mean
