"When Grace jumped off the dock for the first time ever, everybody cheered. It was just a wonderful moment... Everybody was really proud of [Grace]. It's kind of amazing when you think of it.We just showed up a couple of hours ago. We'd never seen any of these people before and already there is a spirt of community and everybody is supporting each other."

-Mary Liz Van Dyck, Participant (and Grace's Mother)
