SPS '15: Enjoying the Great Outdoors (and Unleashing the Inner Billy Goat)

Although the students of the St. Albans School of Public Service class of 2015 excel inside the classroom, they've also been taking advantage of opportunities to enjoy all that the Washington, D.C. area has to offer.  That includes some great hiking along the Potomac River on the well-known Billy Goat Trail.  Although the hike was optional, SPS '15 had a great showing and after a vigorous morning hike we picnicked at the trailhead before heading back to St. Albans.
