Sneak takes senio,.s to Rocky                                                   ountains




                                     The  Rocky  Mountains  presented  new  challenges  to  seniors  this  year.
                                        With  some  heading  for  the  slopes,  few  taking  ski  school.  and  some
                                                  dropping  out  of ski  school  to  hit  the  slopes,  the  seniors
                                                       experienced a fast paced trip to the bottom of a moun-
                                                       tain  while  skiing  at Silver Creek  in  Colorado.
                                                        For Jenny Feeney and many others this was their first
                                                     time skiing.  As Jenny flew past the senior boys, she be-
                                                     gan  to  lose  control.  With  her poles  being flung  behind
                                                    her, and her skies getting stuck in the snow, Jenny tumbled
                                                   head over heels until her boot actually came off and knocked
                                                  the wind out of her.
                                                   "Aside from  the pain, I couldn't help but laugh  at myself
                                                 with the guys,'' said Jenny.
                                                  Skiing was not the  only excitement:  the  time  spent at  the
                                               hotel brought splashing good fun.
                                               After skiing. Dave and Dave decided to relax near the pool out-
                                             side.  Soon realizing that they were missing out, they both jumped
                                            in.  Dave Baltz, trying to win  the attention of others, did a somer-
                                            sault- with clothes on- making a splash for everyone to see.
                                           "People laughed at us because they could see steam coming off of us
                                          as we ran back to the hotel in our wet clothes,'' said David Rasmussen.
