This project was a collaborative endeavor, driven by the participation of a diverse group comprising 15 high school students from five distinct schools across three counties, namely Trinity, Siskiyou, and Shasta. Additionally, we were fortunate to have the involvement of a dynamic mother and son duo, an esteemed art teacher from Dunsmuir High School, and several other dedicated community members. It was truly a privilege to witness this collective effort coming to fruition. We sincerely hope that you derive immense satisfaction and enjoyment from the outcome.
