MarkGabrenya The not-so-sandy beach at Strouds is still adequate for many sun-worshippers. It Ain ' t Florida, But . By Jody McRainey You can ' t drink beer, or bring your dog; it ain ' t Florida, but it sure feels good . . . A small state park commonly known as Strouds offers much diversion from steamy classrooms and stale bars in the spring. Hugged by sweet, green hills, the small man- made lake with the not-so-sandy beach is a popular play- ground for both townies and students when the temperature rises. Last spring after an artic winter, Strouds Run was packed to its gills almost daily. Amidst human pyramids, beaver dams and world champion frisbee throwers, one frol- icked in warm and muddy waters, fried in the sun or |ust enioyed the scenery. If you weren ' t up for Beach Blanket Bingo, Strouds is laced with numerous trails for scouting the wild-side. Canoe- ing was also popular although some novice canoers man- aged to stray into the swimming area. Transportation to Athens ' Atlantic varied. A room- mate ' s car, a bicycle or, more cheaply, a thumb got you there in 10 minutes. You can ' t drink beer, or bring your dog, but it sure feels good . . . Bill Wade A reluctant bather is encouraged to take a dip. Strouds Run 25

May Days Inspire Good Times Green Weekends Add Color to Campus Life By John Micklos Do you enjoy a steak cookout? Do you like listening to live bands under a starry spring sky? Have you ever had an irresistible urge to chase a greased pig? If the answer to any of these questions is yes, then chances are you would enjoy Green Weekends, held each May on the East, West and South Greens at Ohio University. These special weekends are spon- sored primarily for the dormitory resi- dents on the various greens, but other people often wander in to share the good times. In 1977 all three greens offered live bands, which played music ranging from bluegrass to hard rock. On the East G reen, dormitory radio station WLHD also played music and gave away prizes. Other special events on the various greens included such activities as tug- of-war, go-cart and shopping cart races, and an outdoor movie. The South Green even offered students a chance to chase a greased pig for fun and prizes. The special weekend on all three greens provided a time for stu- dents to forget about scholastic pres- sures, relax, and just enjoy them selves. Mark Gabrenya Besides having cookouts and live bands South Green residents had the opportunity to catch a greased pig. 24 Green weekends
