Sun ’n Fun What was the most asked question during the first days of school? It wasn’t “who’s that new boy?” or “where is the elevator?” It was “what did you do dur¬ ing the summer?” Many students and teachers an¬ swered that they had spent their sum¬ mer swimming and lying out at area pools, playing golf at Thorn Spring Country Club, skiing at Claytor Lake, playing tennis at New River Community College, going on picnics in the country, or sleeping late and watching soap op¬ eras. Vacationers traveled to Myrtle Beach, the Smoky Mountains, the Blue Ridge Parkway, or to wherever their suitcase led them. Summer was not all rest and relax¬ ation. Many students found jobs at hos¬ pitals, restaurants, factories, or stores. Volleyball for all — Graduates of Mr. Jerry King’s accounting block play volleyball during a picnic held in the backyard of his home in Blacks¬ burg. Party Hearty — A smiling Kim Cline cuts her cake at a party held on Claytor Lake during the summer in honor of her sixteenth birthday. Science teachers Jim Kelly, Tom Howerton, John Duncan, and John Jo¬ seph painted the exterior of houses dur¬ ing the summer. However, these stu¬ dents and teachers had their fun, too. Mr. John Joseph said, “Kelly and Howerton were management while Duncan and I were labor. On the week¬ ends we would have tennis matches of labor vs. management. Management al¬ ways wins, though. But there will be an uprising, and labor shall overthrow management.” When the last day of school ended, students and teachers found that they had more time to do the more fun things in life. Now school did not take up the majority of their time. Playing, working, skiing, vacationing, and other activities made life under the summer sun, fun. Takeoff — Rusty Warren dons his hang glider and prepares to fly at Nags Head, North Carolina. He also hang glides in Fairlawn. 10 Student Life
