t y t i j UMMER ACTIVITIES 3 Whal's summer? Hot days spent With friends, family, and drivers ed- ucation instructors. Rather than spending the summer vacationing out of town, some under classmen spent a month and a half learning the rules of the road in driv- ers training. The day I got mv li- cense, sophomore Brenda Mager said, T went driving around Bil- lings just for fun.' Summer was not all work though. Some stu- dents went to the near- est park to walk, to run, and to play sports. My friends and I went to Pioneer Park to play softball and frisby a lot, sophomore Amy Witcher said. Whether students va- cationed, played sports, or spent the summer in boredom, the vacation relieved the pressure of homework. Debbie Quiroz I . TINY BUBBLE?

Counselors volunteer their time to make Camp Pita possible A A A A A A i » A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A A HEERFULLY GIVING Two Senior High students spent n week of their summer enjoying the woods, sitting near a creek, and helping handicap children. The volunteer counselors helped the children dress, eat, and find their way around the camp. The activities included horse-back riding, swim- ming, bowling, and relay races. After a long day, the counselors often took a stroll in the woods to relax. Junior Treg Silkwood learned to admire the handi- capped. He remembered an amusing camper who he en- joyed having in his cabin. The camper was eligible for the camp because of his deformed feet that required him to walk with crutches. Bob was really hilarious be- cause he'd sit on top of his bed and call everyone who walked by him 'fatso' for no reason, Silkwood said. Each counselor was respon- sible for four or five children. Junior Grace Berube had a difficult time adjusting to the campers' mental ages. At first Ed talk to them like little kids, even though they weren't, Berube said, but af- ter a while, I learned to treat them like a friend. Berube putin much time get- ting the children ready in the morning because she would have to describe details that she assumed they already knew how to do. It was hard to adjust be- cause I'd have to explain things I assumed they'd know how to do, Berube said, like brushing their teeth. Though the camp required much work, Berube admitted that it was rewarding. It was great helping them, she said, They have a lot to give. It; Debbie Quiroz NEATLY PACKED.
