mewymswammwvmewewemmwwwmcwmamesmeewazwmmmsowsywmmmamambmgwsgwammmw Edina has it's own sandbox; we make our own fun. T here were many new, as well as old, experiences for Edina students during the summer of '85. These exper- iences ranged from food, new places to go and see, and even the old Edina traditional summertime fun. Coca-Coia toasted off the summer with New Coke, followed by Cherry Coke, and the mistake-fixing Coke Classic. The Mpls. Star and Tribune stated, nCoke CIassic-- the old formu- Ia with the bite-- is outselling itnew , and sweeter Coke 3-to-I or 4-to-i. While sipping a Coke, and if you had $4.50 to spare, you could take in a movie, which was high on the list of activities during the warmer months. Some of the classics were Back to the Future, St. Elmo's Fire, and Rambo. Most of these received good reviews, although Rambo had some contrast- ing views of interpretation. However, all three brought about packed the- ater houses and content movie go- ers.

June 26th. On opening day, thousands of people crowded into the stadium to take in an exciting day. The race track was a big hit, with a closing season of over a million people. Al- though some went for a chance at big money, many went for just the thrill of the track. A more traditonai activity was a visit to Lake Harriet. When the sun was out, so were the Edinians, and the beaches were packed with people basking in the warm summer sun. Shangoya drew hundreds to the lake to enjoy the reg- gae music and meeting people. ttWhenever you go to the lake, you want to meet some new friends. But when you look around, everybody seems to be meeting people but you. However, they are just talking to peo- ple they already know, commented Todd Bergstrom no; Sports were also a big activity, in- cluding tennis, soccer, softball, base- ball, and many water sports. The main sport, however, was tanning, which seemed to demand the most dedica- tion. Cabins and many different kinds of camps were visited to refresh minds on the art of relaxing in the beautiful out- doors. These times were very special to many people. tiWeII, personally I don't know what summer would be like without camp. As long as I can remem- ber, every summer I've been stuffed in a bus and sent off to some foreign place, frightened to death of the strange people surrounding me. But, as usual, I come home after having the greatest time of my life and becoming good friends with those istrange peo- ple', remarked Mary Shulze Um on her summer camp memories. Many students enjoyed trips to Euro- pean countries as, well. These people please continue reading on page 40 Brad Sport: HZ, spent part of his vacation at a summer ski camp in Mount Hood, Oregon.
