153: The Legacy of Adam Tsapis


Listen Later

In this special episode, we honor and explore the legacy of the late Adam Tsapis, Summit Achievement co-founder, tall ship captain, father, partner, friend to all, and advocate for wilderness therapy in its many forms. The first segment features archival audio recordings of Adam sharing some stories about his life and the early years of Summit Achievement with other Summit co-founders. The second segment is an interview with Tobie Feigenbaum, Adam's widow, on what she sees as Adam's legacy and how he impacted others. The final piece is a summary of Adam Tsapis's life story.

In 2015 the Adam Tsapis Memorial Fund was set up by his family, Summit Achievement, and the Skys the Limit fund to help defray the costs of family wilderness therapy treatment.  Please donate if you can.
