Beaches to business: summer life Summer! That time between school years when you sat back, kicked off your shoes and relaxed. That ' s what it ' s supposed to be. Summer was a great time to do all the things that you wanted to do during the spring but were too busy to accomplish, said junior Brian Hamer. During the summer CLHS students passed their time in many different ways. Some worked full time, while others bal- anced a part time job with the rest of their summer. I worked part time at Rax during the summer, said junior Karin Sims. Some- times it made me mad if I had to work weekends because I wanted to go to the lake, but I usually just went up after work. Another group of students used their three month vacation from school to simply bum around. This bumming around consisted of a variety of activities including swimming, sunbathing, shopping, reading, playing sports, staying at lake cottages, and visiting friends. This summer I basically bummed. I had the time to really work on my tan a lot. I saw quite a few movies, and I visited the park and the zoo occasionally. I also went to War- ren Dunes a couple of times with some of my friends, said junior Marlena Meyer. CLHS students were also kept busy with school-related activities and practices such as band, flags, cross country, cheerleading, and tennis. The anticipation heightens as juniors T Irmscher, Dawn Minnick, Valerie Tharp, and Becky Carter pre- pare themselves for their ride on the Gemini. The ju- niors visited Cedar Point in mid-June. To help raise some extra money during the summer, senior Mike Stout encourages Fort Wayne citizens to get into the spirit of the Fourth of July by selling fireworks. Stout sold fireworks for about ten days be- fore the Fourth. Cheerleading practice didn ' t take up much time daily, but it added up over the summer, said junior Pam Heisler. After we got back from cheerleading camp and we realized that we could go to Grand Nation- als, we really started practicing harder; and it helped. Summer vacations were also a popular way to spend the summer. Vacation sites ranged from Michigan to Myrtle Beach to Europe. Some vacations were taken with the family, while others were taken with friends. I went to Myrtle Beach for a week this summer with my parents and a friend, said Angie Hazelett, junior. It gave me a chance to get away from Fort Wayne and to relax. For most students, as usual, the summer was not quite long enough. The summer went fast for me, said ju- nior Tana Goodwill, I didn ' t feel like I had even been out of school and I had to go back. — Katie Wasson 14 | Summer
