Summer camps didn't always mean a break from studies. Leddership. yearbook, sports, and band camps provided students with the exper- ience that made the tran- sition to the next year smoother. Unfortunately students had to give up free time since their school started much earli- er. With each year school seemed longer, the weeks went slower, and day after day dragged on ond on.
