— CEDAR POINT OR BUST! It was almost time for graduation and the seniors gathered for one last week-end of fun before their high school days were complete. On Friday afternoon the ' 81 seniors boarded buses and headed for a funfilled week-end at Cedar Point. For the next twenty-four hours there was litle time for rest as the seniors filled their time with swimming at the Green Tree Inn where they spent Friday night, visiting the Somewhere Else which is a popular teenage Recreational Center in Sandusky, and enjoying the rides and shows at the park. There were so many things to do and see that once they entered the park, many of the group never saw each other again until they left. When asked if she felt her Senior Class Trip was a success, Lisa Peterson replied enthusiastically, Yes, it was nice to get away with my fellow classmates, knowing that we will all have an enjoyable experience to remember in the future. Student Council officer, Sonya Smith said that the trip was much better than she had expected. When we voted on where we would be going on our trip, I was disappointed when Cedar Point was chosen. So the trip was surprisingly fun for me, she said. The weekend at Cedar Point proved to be a happy memory for all the seniors who went on the trip.
