Senior Katie Hale who went on a Disney Cruise over Thanksgiving break said, “For a whole week, I didn’t have to worry about school or softball.

For the first day or so I felt completely out of it because I was so used to being relaxed and not having a million things to do. It can be a bit overwhelming.”
