I found Billie in the conference room early one morning...
Maybe she was a little excited to go on her voyage?

Our white buses proved to be the challenge for Lisa and Cody on the 6th grade Voyage! A bus broke down on the way to their destination and they had a flat tire on the way back!

Here the kids are safely away from the highway as the State Patrol monitor the situation AND step in to be expert speakers!
They kids learned first hand about what a historic event the eclipse was for the state of Wyoming - the largest crowd Wyoming has ever experienced!  

Welcoming Mr. Ken Kessel to our Crew!

Mr. Ken has accepted the position of building engineer here at Renaissance. Yeah!!! Please be sure to invite him in to formally be introduced to your Crews. We are all so appreciative of his support and expertise!
