How about the time you first began to learn how to swim? Senior Jennifer Taylor had to experience similar traumas with seven sixth-grade girls while away at science camp as a counselor. 'lProbably the most difficult time l really had was shower time. Otherwise, l didn't really have too much trouble with any of my girls, said Taylor. Being a science camp counselor requires a lot of responsibility and dedication. Accord- ing to Richard Abel, assistant principal, it requires a person who primarily can handle taking care of up to ten sixth graders. I think theyfcounselorsl quote 'fun' to a learning experience, said Mr. Abel. They realize that it's not theory, nor a book, but . l T 1' . ,X I, .y - f .

Don't think it's all hard work though, because being a counselor has proven to have its rewards to Taylor. She realized that along with the bad also came the good. l had forgotten how it felt to wonder about things, and to see that in their eyes helped me io relive that, said Taylor. Taylor is very happy to know that she is not forgotten, She gets letters from some of the sixth graders she was in charge with, and talks to them often on the phone. l'One of the best parts of going was meeting new people. lt was really neat because we all became friends and we still aref' said Taylor. by Colleen O'CeaIIaigh ' f-si. if 2 .

He was the only student from Tokay to audition for the choir. However, eight hundred auditioned total throughout Califor- nia. I went into fthe auditionl thinking 'go for it.' I knew l'd make it, said Jordan following his tour. I think that's the difference between making it and not Imaking itlf' Jordan said there were a few butterflies at audition, but that means I cared for the outcome, added Jordan. For the audition, Jordan had to perform chords, matching tones, major and chramatic scale, tonal memory, sight reading, and a solo. The hardest part of the audition was the sight reading, recalled Jordan. For his solo, Jordan sang The Turtle Dove. I chose that lsongl because it was a pretty song with feeling, said Jordan. Tokay choir director Cassie Ruetlinger helped Jor- dan prepare his solo. Two months after his audition, Jordan found out he had made it. We had called a lot concerning the results, and I started to fear the fact that I had not made it. But I received a letter in the mail saying to show up for our first rehearsal. I was very excited, remem- bered Jordan. When I went to the rehearsals, I found that all the singers were very dedicated and hard-working. That made me feel really good, Jordan later recalled. Only serious musicians are dedicated to their work, he said. In the choir there were approximately 275 total voices, according to Jordan. Although Jordan was only one of those many voices, he had an incredible feeling of involve- ment. In addition to his choir talent, Jordan was the lead singer of the high school heavy metal band Talon, whose members in- cluded seniors Nathan Stark and Bryan Hitchcock. by C. Todd Barnes
