While much of California bakes during the summer, this city offers welcome relief. It has long been a destination. Now it is more: a sanctuary. San Francisco is a place where possibilities find life, where diversity is the norm, where outsiders find a home. It is the future today. The small peninsula that holds this world-class city is surrounded by countless other wonders, natural and otherwise: beautiful beaches, majestic mountains, innovative ideas. A trip to San Francisco is like a pilgrimage, a journey that rejuvenates. Too often these days we find ourselves lost in the fog, unable to see the beauty beyond. We encourage you to press on, to look beyond and find sanctuary in San Francisco. https://youtu.be/WsrtOBP-V9M Convention program available for download A PDF of the program for the Spring National High School Journalism Convention is available for download.
