If you go to Hoover and you are a freshman or if you are going to be going to Hoover soon then there is a program you should take an interest into joining and that is the Aaron Price Fellows. The program was created in 1991 by the Price Family  to honor the life and memory of Aaron Price after he passed away in 1989 at the age of 15. The program provides a wide range of activites and allows interaction with people most of us would never likely meet. Schools that participating are Lincoln High School, University City High School, Point Loma, and Hoover High School. The programs first year starts of with a summer camp where you will meet the other fellows in the program. This will be time to bond with your new family since you will be together in the same program until senior year. The second year there will be a visit to California State's Capitol in Sacramento where you will meet memebers of the Senate, how the government works, and possibly some fellows from previous years working at the capitol. The third and final year there will be a week long visit to Washington DC. The visit includes a lot of tours to important places such as the White House and learn what the federal government does. All these are the major trips taken while in the program, but there are also a lot trips to places in the San Diego area such as the juvinile hall detention area, a trip to Petco Park,  and too many other places. The progrma is the most fun you will ever have and meet people you will most likely have never met before. What is the best thing of all is that you will make life long friends. So if you are a soon to be freshman or a freshman look for the opportunity to join this program. It will be a choice you will not regret.
