From the airport, we drive north to the redwood trees, tucked into scenic Marin County. It is here that we have our first evening orientation. Through games, team building activities and cooking our first meal together, the adventure truly begins. We also intro- duce the role of “Leader of the Day” which is an essential component of every ARCC trip. Accommodations: Campground Day 2: Glide Foundation and San Francisco We wake up early and head into the heart of San Francisco to spend a few hours serving food to the homeless at Glide’s Soup Kitchen. Featured in the movie, “The Pursuit of Happiness,” we join the Glide Foundation to feed the impoverished of San Francisco. Glide helps those less fortunate to rise above their current circumstances through a free meal program and technical job training. The free meal program, served 365 days a year, is an integral part of helping alleviate poverty and suffering for people of all ages. Spending the morning sharing meals and smiles with these men, women and children, we brighten their day, and our own! We spend the afternoon exploring the famous sights of San Francisco, which include visiting the ever-popular Fish- erman’s Wharf and the sea lions that call Pier 39 their home, and Ghirardelli Square, famous for its chocolate. A day in San Francisco is not complete without taking a ride on the iconic cable cars and getting a breathtaking view of the “City by the Bay.” Accommodations: Campground
