SRS. JACOB SAYER and Mike De- cell take the ski lift to the top of Arapa- hoe Basin for some mono skiing. Mono skiing was a form of skiing with only one ski, which was very popular among the more advanced skiers. ON ONE OF the trips to Washington Park, Fr. Ian Serff pedals down one of the downtown streets protected by his safety helmet. Helmets were required on all the tours and bike trips.

On the club's first trip their van was an hour and a half late, and once it finally picked up the students, they found there was no ski stor- age. They made the trip with twenty-five pairs of skis in the aisle. The majority of skiers in the club were freshmen and sopho- mores. The main reasons for this, said President Sr. Kevin Bacon, was most of the older students have their own car and would rather drive up them- selves, even though they miss a great deal. We've had some enjoyable trips, but the bad part is dealing with traffic, added Mr. Alexander. The Cross Country Ski Club didn't have to worry about traf- fic. Sponsor Beth Baker said, We left before dawn so we could make it to the mountains before the 'downhillers'.

Copy: Amber Laiminger Layout: Carl Loeschcr club went on trips every other weekend, and since the major- ity of skiers were advanced be- ginners or intermediates, the club was able to go on some tougher trails. One of the clubs most enjoyable trips was in Lulu City. Fr. Dave Cruson said, The weather was great and there was brand new pow- der. The Bicycle Club also went on many exciting varieties of trips. The members of the club competed in the Ft. Lupton Front Range Century Ride. The riders went either 20 kilo- meters up to 100 miles. Sponsor Beth Baker said the Ft. Lupton ride was the best experience for the club. It met the needs of everyone. The super riders got a good race while the other riders went out and finished and re- ceived a patchf' The club, made up of students with all kinds of bikes and abilities, went on many tours and some casual rides to places like Washington Park and Cherry Creek Reser- voir. One other club which did not directly go on any athletic trips, but did do many important things, was Students Against Drunk Driving CSADDJ. SADD participated in many ac- tivities. They were in charge of a SADD rally, planned activi- ties for SADD Week and helped organize the State SADD Rally. Even the meet- ings were filled with new ideas and plans for upcoming events. Soph. Julie Nadolne said, Just going to the meetings was fun, because everybody there is al- ways psyched up about all the events that are going on. The major goal of the club was to persuade students that drinking and driving was dan- gerous. I thought joining SADD could help both myself and others who I want to keep from driving drunk, said Julie. Brandon Coors HIGH ABOVE THE snowy slope, Sr. K.C. Coors works on perfecting his mule kick.
