SKIING Take a Chairlift to Fun . Snow, wind, ice and cold — these are only a few of the things to overcome when MBC students track to the slopes. Every- one knows, especially at MBC, ski sea- son is just around the corner when over half the campus is praying for snow and hoping at the same time they can make it to the mountains before they get snowed Wintergreen seemed to be MBC ' s favor- ite resort this year, but let us not leave out Massanutten, Showshoe, Vail, Aspen and any other place that the MBC commu- nity can escape to. Some people choose to take lessons and sign up for the ski class that is offered through the Physical Education Department. Where- as others decide to snowplow off on their own. Whether taken as a class credit or going to the slopes just for fun, MBC stu- dents and their friends had a great sea- son for skiing. Some of the slopes en- countered were everything from the Skid- der Bunny slope for the beginners to the Devil ' s Elbow for those who may be a little more daring. Also in the winter MBC students like to ice skate. Ice skating is a great way to have fun and enjoy the time that the students have away from their studies. Two students relax in ttie lodge after a day of skiing. Concentration is a big part of staying on tfie blades Instead of on the buns. tt ' ltmi -fc- r ' Hi ♦ -C= . 182 SPORTS

INTRAMURALS Hall Competition Anyone? This year the Intramural events were or- ganized by Saunders Vickery and Sheri Powell. Intramural activities began at the beginning of the year when the new fresh- men class came in. The competition con- sisted of four events: ping-pong, frisbee throw, volleyball and free throws. There was a prize awarded to Spencer I G for the most original costumes. This hall was very creative in choosing what to wear for the evening ' s activities; they came as the California Raisins. Throughout the year, there were all types of events to satisfy the student body. The two main tourna- ments this year were volleyball and bas- ketball. Both of these activities were full of fun competition. Spencer II won the vol- leyball tournament and Woodson IV won the basketball tournament. This year there was even an Easter Egg Hunt. Area businesses helped out with this event by donating prizes to put in the eggs. The year came to a close and the points the halls accumulated were totaled up. Spencer II clinched the first place prize for the year while Rose and Woodrow Ter- races, together as a team, was not far behind in second place.
