Trip Reflections

These are the experiences of Alma students helping employees of Land Between The Lakes National Recreation Area as they prepare for their 2006 season and its 2 million visitors. With nine campgrounds, sixteen lake access areas, six large visitor facilities and over two hundred miles of trails, Forest Service staff time is precious and the park's volunteer program allows them to accomplish much more work. Students perform trail maintenance, litter clean-up and many other activities.

The Alma College Percussion Ensemble performed at the prestigious Centrum Jazz Festival, an international festival in Port Townsend, Wash., in July 2007. Alma was the only college group invited to perform. "It's a huge honor," says faculty director Dave Zerbe. "You can't apply to perform there; they seek you out."
