,flflcmcnfvs of nur class To tell about our class trip without first re- calling the many plans and preparations which con- stitute such an adventure, would fail to bring out the full enjoyment and anticipation that goes along with this: a freshman's dream, a sophomore's goal, a junior's destiny, and a senior's memory, Each year we sponsored various activities to raise funds for our trip. However, we fell a little short of our goal, so each one paid a portion of his own way which made us appreciate it just a little more. After final arrangements had been made, we WIS selected our chaperones, Mr. and Mrs. Max Linn and Mr. and Mrs. Rodney Peterson and their small daughter, Tommi. They proved to be excellent choices. On Sunday, June 1, 1958, we met at the school to begin our adventure, There was much ex- citement and anticipation as we boraded the busses for Union Station where we met the train. After rid ing all night, we arrived the next morning fresh and eager qwell, anyway eagerly to see our national capitol and surrounding attractions. Monday was spent touring Baltimore, Maryland, 'H' 'W -

trip to Washingfvu D. 63 5? rr! and other interesting sights. That evening we checked into the Dodge Hotel where we stayed while in Washington, D. C. The following two days we were not quite so energetic, but still just as eager, to continue our plans. They included tours of the capitol build- ing, the White House, and the Smithsonian Institute, to name a few. Never to be forgotten, were the expressions on the faces of those who climbed the Washington Monument. The 565 foot climb cer- Tuesday night was very enjoyable as we took a moonlight cruise down the Potomac River on a large touring boat. We stopped at an amusement park where the roller coaster drew the most attention. After another all-night ride we arrived at the Toledo Union Station where we boarded busses home- ward bound with this thought in mind: Our dream had come .... and now had past ,... and here we were . , , . back home at last! With souvenirs from A to Z . . . to help preserve this memory. -27-
