Ryan Craig announced that on December 27, 2005, CNN's Anderson
Cooper 360 profiled one of the original students who had lost
over 300 pounds in 15 months at the Academy of the Sierras (AOS).
As you might expect, the student's self-esteem, mood and outlook
have been completely transformed. As with the vast majority of
students who enroll at AOS, weight loss acted as a catalyst for
significant emotional growth and behavioral change. Academic performance
has also radically improved: The student came to AOS having failed
9th grade; in January, he will be a second-semester junior at
the elite Berkshire School in Massachusetts.
As we prepare to for 2006, I also wanted to let you know that
we are launching two new Wellspring Camps this summer. These programs
are:
Wellspring
Family Camp -- summer weight loss program for parents
with children ages 5-13, located on Clear Lake, in the Hiawatha
National Forest of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Families enjoy
semi-private cabins. Major activities include canoeing, hiking,
ropes course, mountain biking and fitness classes.
Wellspring
UK -- summer weight loss program located in the Lake
District of Northern England for boys and girls ages 12-17, Wellspring
UK is the first scientifically-based summer weight loss program
in Europe. Major activities include climbing, rappelling, ghyll
scrambling, hiking, orienteering, and mountain biking, as well
as traditional camp activities such as football and ultimate frisbee.
