THE CHEMAWA AMERICAN
CARNIVAL DEEMED
GREAT SUCCESS
“Come one, come all” , was the
cry at the All-School Carnival,
held in the gym on Sunday after
noon, October 26.
Students purchased tickets at
the door and then used them at the
various booths set up by classes,
dorms, and organizations on cam
pus.
Students had a chance to try
their hand on the trampoline at one
of the booths, and at another, they
threw balls at a tin can and if they
were good and hit the can, a Che-
mawa student was dunked in a
barrel of water. The Freshman
class sponsored a dart throwing
booth where students tried to hit
the picture of George Washington
on a dollar bill. If they were
lucky enough to hit it, they won
the dollar. Inter-dorm council had
a cake walk, which was very popu
lar with the hungrier students at
the Carnival. These were just a
few of the 19 booths set up to
provide challenge, fun, and excite
ment for Chemawa students and
staff. Besides providing money
for the booth sponsors, it made an
otherwise uneventful Sunday after
noon a day to be remembered by
all who attended.
