 tff Students beat the heat and pass the time. HYDRO SLIDE. Senior Colin Hames shows off for friends. Unlike senior Virginia Solstad who swallowed half of the lake earlier, Colin skims across the water. Other water sports epjoyed on Lake Minnetonka include sail-boarding, water skiing and jet skiing. As the doors of Mound Westonka closed on June 9, 1987, the students knew exactly what to do. Some grabbed suntan oil and headed for the beach. Others set out determined to make a fortune at a part-time job while carefree students hung out with friends, stayed out late, and slept till noon. As the temperature soared to degrees well into the hundreds, where else to go but the beach? This past summer, the local beaches were swamped with bronze gods and goddesses. Of course, people swam, but some found it betterjust to lie on the sand and soak up the rays. Others just went to show off their new bikini or rippling biceps. If students were not at the beach, they were seduced by the lure of money and jobs. It's amazing what kinds of work people do to make money. Among the $3.35 per hour jobs are busing at Lord flecther's, waitressing at Country Kitchen, and car hopping at the Minnetonka Drive-In. At the beginning of the summer these eager workers say, This summer I'm going to save my money. However, it's hard to resist spending money on movies, music, concerts, and junk food. The people who didn't have a job didn't worry about saving at all. They just led the summer life to it's fullest. A typical summer night for these kids is hanging out with their friends. They'll cruise The Strip in Hopkins, flock Hardee's and see who's at SA (Super America). If it's a weeknight, they'll crash at someone's house and catch David Letterman. ROUGHING IT. Seniors Breck Jenson, Sherryl Starkman, Bridget Larson and Linda Carlson, otherwise known as The Birds are camping during the summer.
