"My husband and I met as participants in 1996. We have many fond memories of our week. Thank you for the experience that allowed us to meet. In 2009, we celebrated our 5th wedding anniversary and the birth of our daughter. We are especially grateful, because without your program, she wouldn't exist. We can't thank you enough."
