Thank You! Thank You!

Here's an excerpt from an email I received from American Hiking Society:

Chuck,

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU

You video is fantastic!  We really appreciate you putting it together for us and I think this is right in line with what we needed for the Travelocity site (and our website in general which we will definitely showcase it on).


Wow!  They liked it!  And grateful thanks to my friends and family who viewed the first draft of the promo video and offered valuable suggestions for improvements, many of which I incorporated into the revised version of the video which is now public.

FYI:  In 2010 AHS volunteers worked on 53 different trail projects (Volunteer Vacations) dedicating 16,840 hours of volunteer labor, resulting in $351,114 of estimated value in sweat equity given to the U. S. Forest Service, National Park Service, Bureau of Land Management, and various trail organizations.   Over 440 miles of trail were built, maintained, or re-vegetated with the hardworking hands of AHS volunteers.

If you're curious what a week in the woods is like on a trail project, check out the video:
