A weeklong training conference in Orlando, Fla., turned into a family-bonding experience for Kirsten Walrath-Noem. She brought along her 10-year-old son, Robert, and met her mother, Debbie, there.

While Walrath-Noem, a corporate trainer for MetaBank, was in class all day, Robert and Debbie toured Disney World. She said it gave her a balance to the full days of training.
“It was nice to in the evening have something to occupy my time instead of feeling like I had to sit and study all the time because I think I would have gotten burnt out,” she said.

 Robert Glanville and dogs Turner and Gabby often accompany Laura Glanville on her admissions trips for the University of Sioux Falls.
“Most the time the fairs are a few hours a day so we have a lot of downtime. So it gives a lot of time to tour the area or go on walks in the cities, exploring, as well as fun for the students. They get to meet them (the dogs).” |
