cod times ef summer Summer vacation offered many opportunities. Some students traveled with their families, others with youth groups. Some spent a large part of their time working, while others prepared for the coming school year. Lori Eveloff, 12, who toured Israel with other Jewish students, stated, I learned to be proud of my heritage. Back home when I heard about Israel on TV, it just didn't mean as much as when I was actually there.' The Exclamations, a youth singing group from Holmeswood Baptist Church, participated in a mission tour which lasted for about two and a half weeks. The main purpose of the tour was to witness to people through song and day camps. A large number of students began preparing for this year before the 1980-81 school year was complete. Football, volleyball, and cross-country practices started about the second week of August for two hours. The cheerleaders, Drill Team, and Flag Team practiced three to five days a week. Summer for Centerites was rewarding in varied activities that were both enjoyable and built momentum toward a fantastic new year!
