We’ve turned into a family. The relationships between everyone have grown so strong. I feel as though there aren’t any worries. No worries about what you look like, no worries about being judged. Everyone cares for each other. People were worried about getting home and going back to their ‘old ways’ or losing these wonderful relationships. I don’t think that will happen. I trust these people.

Lucy the Bus
On November 14th, 2010, Lucy joined the Trekkers' family. A 2010 Thomas bus, Lucy came to us from the Audubon Expedition Institute and Lesley University, where Don Carpenter, Trekkers Executive Director, received a Master of Science degree in 1998. Harbor Builders Associates outfitted Lucy with a roof rack, kitchen area, library, and storage areas for sleeping bags, sports equipment, games and art supplies.
