Bailey, Colorado is a rural town in the Rocky Mountains. “Bailey is boating hell. There is no water around us at all,” says high school teacher, Steve Hanford. Now imagine 13 high school students building a triple-hulled canoe from scratch and racing it on the ocean. Despite the critics who said they couldn’t, the students and teachers believed in their own power to succeed.

Thanks so much for doing that story!
Since it took me a minute to find it… I thought I’d share the Instagram Account for the “yacht club” — https://www.instagram.com/pchsyachtclub/
Thanks Jim!
Hi Dirtbag Diaries. I am a teacher in the UK and ALWAYS listen to your podcast – I’m always a tad gutted when I refresh my podcast feed and you guys aren’t there. I am doing an assembly for some students this week and will play the first 5mins of this podcast to them. I want them to think about creativity and creation and this just worked a treat!
Stay amazing!
Hi Mark! Love it. Glad that you can share the story with your students.
Fabulous episode.
Thanks Tim!
