Episode 30: Behind the Tour - California Here We Come

EPISODE 30: Behind the Tour – California, Here we Come!

SUMMARY On this podcast, Host Aaron Cronk is joined by ACTS Education Program Leader (EPL), Teri VanKlaveren. Teri works primarily on our West Coast California and Arizona programs.

They will discuss the fun and exciting ACTS California State History tour programs. They will highlight the purpose of the ACTS California Programs and then Teri will put on her guide hat and walk Aaron through a brief highlight of what they see on an average program. The discussion will focus on Sacramento, Coloma, Yosemite, and San Francisco. In the Behind the Stone segment, they will talk about the Pony Express Memorial in Sacramento. Even though it is cast in bronze we figured it could fit in with all the stone statues!

Then the lives of Theodore Judah, John Sutter, and James Marshall are all highlighted in the conversation in the Behind the Person segment. Finally, the conversation wraps up with a Call to Action.

We encourage listeners to consider participating in on of ACTS California tour programs.
