Whenever you have a free moment and the weather’s fine, you can in- dulge in a variety of outdoor activities. Probably the most popular of these is handball. Just pass any windowless brick wall and you’ll see a game in progress. Playing frisbee is nearly as widespread; on any given day you’re likely to see a frisbee soaring grace- fully over one of the school’s wide open areas. Skateboarding and bicy- cling are also enthusiastically pur- sued. This year Farmingdale has a West Coast version of a skateboard park called “The Concrete Wave,” located on Conklin Street. This affords our many skateboard addicts the opportu- nity to become proficient at the sport, under the best possible conditions. No longer will they have to take to the streets, which is both illegal and dan- gerous. On a warm, sunny day, the spaces in the bike rack are limited. This is partly due to the present district policy which dictates that anyone living with- in two miles of a school is not pro- vided with transportation. As a result, many find it preferable to ride their bikes rather than walk to school. But students don’t just ride bikes sim- ply because they must.

Leisure Sports Generate Enthusiasm Riding twenty miles doesn’t seem long if it’s for a good cause. This October, the American Cancer Society held a Bike-a-thon in which many Farm- ingdale High School students partici- pated. Unorganized sports like these are al- ways popular, mostly because they’re easy, fun, and they don’t have a lot of rules and regulations; people can sim- ply get out and have a good time. To the tedium of the daily routine, they make a pleasant alternative. Above: Filled Bicycle Rack. Top Left: Michael Miccio. 29
