St. Paul's summer jobs program for teens, Right Track, gives valuable work experience to hundreds of the city's youth. On Thursday, they got another, entirely different kind of experience.

They got to meet the President of the United States.

Right Track students were set to join St. Paul Mayor Chris Coileman at a town hall meeting with President Barack Obama at Minnehaha Falls Thursday afternoon.
