in needed areas. Otherwise reluctant students have become
excited to come share their work in a fun social setting.

fascinating workshop that will inspire students to create
a tale for their own pilgrimage. While practicing the elements
of a great story, we'll even sneak in some Chaucer and medieval
history, culminating in a pilgrimage to the Holy Family
shrine, during which students will spin their stories and
have a picnic.
