Project Adventure Cmost students just call it P.A.J was started as a P.E. class. Levine said, It's to promote lifetime activities, and to produce a sense of adventure. It involves learning trust, decision making, working with others and how to face fearf' Among the various activities of the class were fly fishing, flying, scuba diving, cross country skiing, hunter's safety, archery, cycling and kayaking. I liked going outside the class to do the different activities, noted Tom Tippets. My favorite activity was fishing, because I like fishing a lot. Jon Jensen said, They were really hip about it CProject Adventurej at the beginning of the year and they had a bunch of trips, but they didnit have much after that. Maybe it will be better next year. The scuba diving unit was all right. After about five hours of watching videos, we went to the pool, but there were two people per tank and we only went to the five foot levelf' Project Adventure was a pretty fun class. My favorite activity was scuba diving. It was fun to dive because I've done it before and really enjoy itf' added Jonathan Witt. Scuba diving was discontinued from the program because school insurance ruled it too dangerous and wouldn't carry it any more. One big activity was to raft down the Green River below Flaming Gorge Dam. Students found rafting quite a bit safer than they thought. The rafting trip was fun. I learned things that I didn't know before, like how to paddle a boat and which kind of life jacket is best, noted Nancie Clark. The course was to provide in-depth classroom preparation in different activities and then to provide the experience of the activity. Some activities like downhill skiing and archery were done in the past, but none were as thorough as Project Adventure. In this class, students will learn basic techniques, increase their self image, become aware of different activitiesf' noted Levine. Students in Lyman feel that there are not enough activities in the Lyman area. This class will help them realize there are plenty of outdoor choices if they are willing to search them out.

When we went to see the cadavers we got to see things l had never seen before or even knew where they were. The field trips sometimes help us to get over fears that are situated around the place we're visiting. l also like the crazy fun that goes on during the trips there and back. The drama class performed drug awareness. It was a good experience because the kids took an interest in what we were doing. Jennifer Whitrock added, The little kids were really enthusiastic about the shows. There were some that knew that people were behind the curtain but Mr. Cox kept telling them that there wasn't.
