But the flip side of having a mentor is to one day take hold of the baton and become a mentor. One of the greatest ways I spend time is mentoring, whether in a formal setting or informally. I continue to learn and grow from my mentees on this side of the fence!<BR/>AnneACWhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12298402039722869768noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36128469.post-86797681564413909252008-11-19T14:07:00.000-05:002008-11-19T14:07:00.000-05:00Yes, how true what all of you are saying.

My husband mentors high school seniors through the college application process. There are all kinds of ways--something to match every interest--for people to get involved this way.<BR/><BR/>Best,<BR/>Carolyn Howard-Johnson<BR/><BR/>PS.
