S.H.A.R.P. Visits 106 & Park

On July 30, 2009, the S.H.A.R.P program went to New York city to see a live show called 106 & Park. The trip took about four hours to get there. While we were up there we had so much fun. Some of the people in the program didn't get to be on TV, but the experience was really good. Rocsi had a breakthrough on national TV and began crying. The topic was about body issues, and how people don't like things about themselves like their teeth, or their complexion. Rocsi was brave enough to talk about the problems she experienced back in high school. By sharing her problems, she helped others by telling them that everyone is beautiful, and you should love your body the way it is, and never let anyone tell you different.

The Cookout

Mr. Benn, the S.H.A.R.P Program Director surprised us with this cookout, and we had a lot of fun. We had a lot of food there. We had lots of drinks like lemonade, sprite, and many more. We had some good food as you can see from the left; we had hamburgers,turkey,beef, and veggie. It was a great experience to have this cookout. We were able to relax from all of the work that we had done in the past. We were able to talk to each other, and overall we had fun. The reason why we had the cookout that day was because they wanted us to clean the greenhouse, and to take out the microscopes.
