by Jonathan Rosenbaum 08 Oct '15

08 Oct '15

It included a balloon release in which you could sense Tyler's spirit floating away, and a candle light vigil as well as video with music interspersed, including soothing harp music by John Lozier (one of the founders). Will Ravenscroft (one of the founders) worked out the logistics for the event. I was privileged to meet Tyler's family and several friends. I left feeling positive with renewed hope for humanity.

OOPS
by Will Ravenscroft 13 Aug '15

13 Aug '15

So I did not understand clearly what was happening on Friday and it will be fun. We will have the 24 honors students from 8:45 to noon. We *also *have 24 Adventure WV incoming freshmen (and women) from 8:45 until 3:30. Just our typical chaos but in an effort to impart a little organization I attached a list of projects we can get to work on. If you have other ideas send them to me or bring them with you if you are coming to help (or to cause more disorder). Will
