At these camps in Colorado Springs, both squads took home superior rat- ing awards. Athletic camps were very popular over the summer and the students enjoyed leaming and having fun at the same time. Sport camps were not the only camps around last summer. There were camps re- lated to school itself. Srs. Becky Beougher, Jill Carlson, Paulette Garcia, Heather Frost, and teacher Ben Bowen went to New York for a nationwide student council retreat. Becky said, While I was there I leamed how to pro- mote school spiiit and how to make events more fun within the school year. Members of the yearbook staff also went to camp in Califo- nia to learn new ideas for yearbooks. Sr. Michelle Dveirin said, The camp gave us the opportunity to leam what it takes for a great yearbook and it helped us work towards hav- ing the our best yearbook ever. While the trip was primarily for learning, we also toured and went sight-seeing. On the other coast, there Terri Lundin rs. Nicky Barleban, Sephanie Mizke, and Brenda Mercer keep in step as they perform with the pom pon squad The poms, as well as the cheerlead- ers, attended camps in Colorado Springs in July. GIT was a Latin convention held in Florida. Here students got to use their Latin skills and met new people. Sr. Tor Aarestad said, Although Latin conventions seem to be a lot of work, we had a great time. In addition to trips, jobs, and camps, the reservoir was popular. At the 'frez , students got the chance to water ski and get a great tan with their friends. Another popular event was being with friends playing some sport. Each day, students would get their friends together and play until the sun went down. As summer came to an end, students began to dread thoughts of school. One exception was Fr. John Hume. I couldnft wai-t for school to start because it would be a new experience and I would be with all my friends again. Summer's overall essence was summed by Soph. Christy Dean: It just went by too fast. ive us a break! Srs.

LL FIRED UP Copy: Nikki Dardanu and Heather Dowd Freedom!! ! NO SCHOOL for three months. Students waited for this day for nine, long, hardworking months. For three months stu- dents did anything they wanted-be in the sun, play volleyball or baseball, go out every night, and, most of all, sleep late! Summer would not have been complete without the usual vacation-whether abroad, in the country, or even in state. Sr. Kathy Kirschemann took her summer vacation down under, in Australia. She said, While I was there, I leamed many things about the people and their culture. Just up the Atlantic Ocean, Srs. Jill and Kristin Gebhart toured and trained for soccer in China. Kristin said, It was an experience I'll never forget. Others decided to spend their leisure time within the nation's bounda- ries. Jrs. Brandi DeBono, Amie France, and Shoshana Friedman had their fun in Hawaii. Amie said, I spent my time collecting sea shells and swimming in the moonlight. Some just decided to take their vacation in- state by roughing it in the Rocky Mountains. Sr. Todd Madden said, Colorado has some of the best cliff diving lakes in the United States. This was done to keep cool on the hot days. While some took advantage of their free- dom during the summer, others tried to eam an extra buck by getting a job. Sr. Karla Todd JJ- CounesyofAm:eMzyu-r ,,VV s Sr. Tor Aarestad watches, an employee at ' the Denver Zoo teaches him the basics of his job.

Karla said, The best benefit of the job was that while I was eamin g money for college, I got to eat all the ice cream I wanted. The job scene ranged from cleaning up offices to becoming a life- guard. uBeing a lifeguard takes a lot of respon- sibility, but you got paid for working on a tan,'i Sr. Scott Bond said. Many students needed something to do this summer, and they decided a job would take up time in the summer months. Some had neither the time nor the desire to work. Most students involved in a sport spent time practicing their skills. The summer base- ball team ended the season with a25- 17 record. Jr. Dennis Furbush said, While we played baseball together for about four hours a day for most of the summer, we had a good time. Other athletes went to camps held at the col- leges for the benefit of the leaming. Sr. Rodney Wong went to get college scouting ex- posure. Some students involved with the ath- letics program went to camps all over the United States to brush up on their skills and to experience new techniques and approaches to their sport. The boys' basketball program traveled to New Mexico with chosen players to a team camp at the university. They were rewarded by being in the top three teams there!
