Scott said, “I'd go back if I could. Venturing back to the good old U.S.A., several students made trips to other states during the summer of '85. The Slavens went to Florida. Everything's fun! was Sterling's opinion of their trip. Their anticipation of seeing the space shuttle Columbia take off turned to disappointment when a problem stopped the count- down with three seconds re- maining. That was prob- ably the most dissapointing thing. Overall we had an excellent trip. We had lots of fun, he said. 12 Trips

They came from eight dif- ferent states to the National 4-H Center in Chevy Chase, MD, about eight blocks from D.C.

I still can't believe 1 was real- ly there. As the travelers look back to the summer of '85, they'll be filled with many fond memories. These travels brought and will continue to bring new perspectives to a small town in southwest Kansas. Towering over the city oi lights. the Eiffel Tower is easily recognized.
