Many faculty members pursued hobbies as a source of relaxation or exercise. Sports ap- pear to be popular. Both men and women may be spotted on the golf course, and a few have been brave enough to enter tourna- ments. Mr. Gary Cheesman ' s interest in ath- letics has led him to officiate in basketball. Mr. Robert Coscarelli combines talent with pleasure in his hobby of gourmet cook- ing. His interest stems from being reared in the restaurant business. Mrs. Donna Atkinson followed her hobby to Scandinavia. She enjoys traveling and camping and has attended three international camps in Scandinavia with the Girls Scouts of the U.S.A. Many teachers, both male and female, have tried their luck at various crafts. These include woodworking, weaving, hooking rugs, and serving. The blizzard of ' 78 brought a new hobby to Mrs. Pat Bowdell — snowmobiling. She and her husband also ride motorcycles. Faculty members have widely varied hob- bies. So don ' t be surprised if you see your teacher busy with something other than your homework. 62 Faculty
