PRACTICE Sun, shades, and sleepy days. Traditionally, this is what comes to mind in one's dreams as the warmer weather and longer days linger upon us. As for reality, at the end of another long school year, one starts to think of that summer job needed to buy that car, or the expense of college tuition. Summer jobs are just another item to add onto the list of responsibilities. From a fast food place to a clothes store at the mall, to a lifeguard at the public pool, you can always find a high school student out earning money while try- ing to stay awake. At the beginning of June, the Dixie Belles and the cheerleaders were at the school getting ready for competition and camp. In the gymnasium, one could hear balls bounc- ing up and down the courts as the basketball and the volleyball teams were already getting on their way. Another im- portant group spending their summer days at the school was the Stu- dent Council. As minds came together, thoughts and ideas were being formed to bring Rich- land closer together in spirit and unity. Summers are not just lazy days drinking a cooling lemonade any- more. They are now filled with the respon- sibilities of growing adults, but although it's a lot of work, there is still a little play. Dana Mitchell.
