"I just wanted to pass along our thanks for making the opportunity available to our son Nathan to participate in ETC's rafting trip on the American River this summer. Nathan had an absolutely fantastic time. He continues to regale all who will listen with his harrowing stories of how "he barely survived 'troublemaker rapids.'" In retrospect, the fact that Nathan's river guide also used a wheelchair has provided a much-needed boost to Nathan's self-confidence. We've definitely noticed a more 'can do' attitude since the trip, and I believe that much of the reason is that he has seen a very positive role model of someone else that uses a wheelchair."

- Shawn, father of one of our participants!
