James, Angelo, Christian and Christopher visiting the Cave on Job Shadow Day.

I am honored to participate in the Woodside High School mentoring program. I get to meet young Juniors in High School who are anxious to learn more about the Recording Art’s and Sciences. When I spend time with these young people, I get a renewed sense of confidence in the future. Reach out and give our kids a helping hand if you can. Get involved, make a commitment, make a difference.
