Camp Testing

All,

Please join me in congratulating Peter and Jason on two outstanding tests this weekend at Winter Camp.  I'd also like to thank all those who helped prepare them during test prep and continue the Rochester tradition.   It is a continuing pleasure to be practicing with such dedicated, high caliber students.
