The Teen Extreme





Here are a couple more shots of students from the Gorham Teen Extreme Summer Camp, who helped out today (as John mentioned) at the Overlook Garden Railway. The group meets Monday each week to help in various community activities. Today they accompanied visitors from the Maine Veterans Home. They were supervised by Gorham teacher Gregg Morton. What a neat program. Thanks for the help!
