The Last day
We went to Getty Images, T-Mobile, Back stage with Ms.Kim, Space Needle, And the play fences. Then last day was very long. The best part of this was when we got to see the play fences. When we went to Getty images we talked about the 10,000 photographers around the world. When we went to T-Mobile we went to the command senters. GETTING ON THE PLANE NOW!!--Tenaj
Long Day
Yesterday was a long day but still a wonderful day. We explored Getty Images and had a lot of fun. It was so interesting that they needed engineers for photography. After we toured Getty Images we were on our way to T-mobile. When we we toured T-mobile we discovered that they had extremely high level security. We met a star in Fences named Ms. Kim Stauton who played Rose. We had dinner with her and had wonderful conversation. I loved going to the Space Needle. I thought I would be scared but I had a great time. After the Space Needle we went to go see the playwright Fences by August Wilson. I really enjoyed that. This trip overall was a learning experience and I really enjoyed it and I thank everyone who gave me this wonderful opportunity. Back to DC we go!!!! To bad I don't want to leave! --Tierra
The Long Day We Had Ahead Of Us
Thursday was a long and tiring day. We had an opportunity to do a multiple of activities such as do tours of T-Mobile, Getty Images, have a talk with Kim Staunton and go see the play this actor participated in call Fences, and Space Needle. Out of the 4, I enjoyed watching Fences and having a nice talk with Kim Staunton, and going up in the space needle. Fences was a funny but life-learning lesson. I learned that life doesn't owe you anything ,that i owe myself. The talk with Kim Staunton was just amazing and it was a wonderful time having her my presents. Lastly the Space Needle was something else. It was very high up in the sky, but I wasn't really scared. Also while we were up there i got to see jets land and take off in the water which was quite fascinating. Overall I enjoyed this trip very much and Thankful that Ms. Andrea and Ms. Jessica let us travel and experience new things and also just taking their time out for us.--Diamond

OMG! Columbia=AWESOME!!!
What can I say about Columbia other than it is the best! I had so much fun. It was so interesting to see all of what Columbia is about and how great it is. The story of how Columbia started is just amazing and inspiring. We also met Ms. Gertrude Boyle the wonderful lady who runs Columbia now. She is so sweet and funny as can be. Some designers at Columbia were nice enough to show us some of their latest designs and they were gorgeous! After we left the tour with Mr. Welch we headed to the employee store. I loved it and I really got my money's worth!! Lol!! I wonder what is in store for today! --Tierra

My Day At The Columbia Company
Today was pretty awesome. We were given a tour of the columbia place and it was very nice. Also we had an opportunity to talk/meet with some of the designers for our youth. They talked about how they have to run their designs through machines and how they had to see whether there design would be the one for the season and so the people ahead of them would say YES or NO. Lastly we were able to get autographed bools by the "chairman" of Columbia Sports Wear. We even got to purchase items from the Columbia Store and i bought a Pink and White Lightweight Columbia Jacket.--Diamond
