I have learned, that if one advances confidently in
the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the
life he has imagined, he will meet with a success
unexpectedin common hours.

Next spring (2005), we are planning a memorial hike
on the Appalachian Trail, one of the few accomplishments
SGM Wolf left undone. We are planning a day and
weekend hike to accommodate as many people as
we can at Vogel State Park in North Georgia.
This park provides easy access to the trail and
a variety of accommodations.
On June 12, 2004, the Florida Youth ChalleNGe Academy
graduated 104 cadets as Class Six ended the
residential phase of the program. Mr. Joe Padilla,
Chief Director of the Office of Athletics and
Youth Development for the National Guard, announced
the creation of a yearly Innovation Award created in
SGM Wolf’s honor acknowledging his leading edge
ideas for the Florida Youth ChalleNGe Program.
The Florida Youth ChalleNGe Program is endorsed by the State and is a cooperative effort between the Department of Education, Department of Juvenile Justice, Department of Children and Families, Clay County District Schools, and the Department of Military Affairs, i.e., the Florida National Guard. The Florida Youth Challenge Academy is located on Camp Blanding (45 miles west of St. Augustine).
