Class of 2014
Congratulations Bristol Bay River Academy Class of 2014! These students wowed all the instructors with their dedication and positive attitudes. We can't wait to see the great things they'll all do with their new skills!
2014 Academy Day 5: Client Day
Here are just two highlights from Client Day, though really we could go on for pages and pages of all the successes from today!
2014 Academy Day 4
On day four, students put their heads down and did some serious preparation. Client day is looming and they have lots of preparation to do to ensure they’re ready to guide a stranger for a day fishing on the Newhalen.
2014 Academy Day 3!
It was a little bit difficult to convince the kids to agree to a 7:00am breakfast... until we told them there was a fly-out planned for the day.
