Ten-year-old Jaia Kattelus just wants his camera to work."The camera, it's confusing because they have all these different modes, macro, magic, pop art... ," explained Jaia on his next to last day in Glacier National Park.Most kids on the trip like Jaia have never been camping, and most have never been to Glacier national park. The Udall Foundation that's putting on the Parks In Focus program, gave the kids new digital cameras and a week guide through the park. Guides are teaching them photography and much more."It's helping in every aspect of their lives. I think this trip is going to be something that they'll be able to look back on for a long time," commented Jessica Kelley with the Boys and Girls Club.A Udall representative said they are hoping youth will get the same opportunity next year. Federal budget cuts may keep that from happening.
