It was a foggy, cold day that marked the 12th annual George Fox College Raft Race. The cold mist was so thick that trees on the opposite shore of the Willamette River were barely visible, but this in no way dimmed the spirit of anticipation. 0 Those trying for the Most Original Raft included three lovely SAGA River Rats , some elderly women (suspiciously lacking in wrinkles), and the prize winning group, the elegant Ladies of the Nile. The prize consisted of nothing less than six gal- lons of ice cream. Several crews took unplanned dips into the chilly water right at the start of the three mile race. But not the six members of the Titanic II . They came in first by a long shot with a time of 76 minutes 21 seconds which earned them all, along with the dates of their choice, free passes to the River Queen. The Vlad- imer came in second for three giant pizzas at Ye Olde Pizza Shoppe, and third place went to Bonzo ' s Ark with a two dollar certificate to the SUBway for each member of the crew. The barbecue after the race filled everyone with good, warm food and made for a satisfying conclusion to an exhilerating day. TOP: Despite rain and fog, Brent Nichols flashes a spirited smile.
