WLDI

On June 12th I had the privilege was helping Marc Boucher celebrate his completion of the Wisconsin Leadership Development Institute. I learned so much throughout the year as his mentor. I can hardly believe that it was 13 years ago that I to graduated from WLDI. I am happy that this training opportuntity still exsists. In addition to being present, I was also asked to speak. That was quite an honor.

Reina at the cabin

On June 13th Mike and I traveled to the cabin. His mom, Lorraine and her friend Saron and Mike's sister Katy's daughter, Reina had been there all week. The weather had been cold and rainy but that began to change on Friday. As soo as we arrived, Reina and I hoped in the paddle boat and headed down river. What a glorious day! There were easgles circling and wonderful sunshine. It was so much fun to experience the cabin through the eyes of an eleven year ols. It was pure joy! When we weren;y on the river we were working on a puzzle.

The next morning Mike started a fire and Reina and I tried our luck at fishing. I discovered that roasted marshmellows taste just as good in the evening as they do after breakfast. Thanks for a great time Reina. I hope we do that again soon.

WTCS Tech Expo

On May 28, 2009 Nicolet College hosted the Tech Expo. 170 technical college and K-12 faculty and staff gathered to learn about ways that technology can be used to enhance learning. I was so proud to have been a part of planning the event and am so fortunate to work with an amazing group of people at the state and local level who created the success. Below are picture from the event.
