"Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass...
it's about learning how to dance in the rain."
Favorite quote of Jenn Scheinkopf (1981 - 2014 and forever dancing in the rain)
Where We Began
Last year was the 10th anniversary of my daughter Jenn's passing. Below you'll find a short explanation of how this Challenge came to be and a bit about the wonderful young woman who inspired it.
Jenn's Challenge goes to Burning Man
At the conclusion of last year's Challenge, I created an art project out of everyone's stories and brought them with me to Burning Man. This year I'll be doing the same and I hope to bring yours with me this time!
