Associated Student Govern

Clackamas Community College
1987 graduates by putting on the
first annual CCC “Beach Party”
Friday, June 5. The party is not
merely for the graduating class.
Entertainment council is asking
everyone, students and communi
ty, to show up.
Heather Wright, coordinator
of the event had this to say, “I
think ‘Beach Party ’87’ will give
students a chance to kick off their
summer with the right attitude.
It’ll be fun for everyone, in
cluding our older students. I hope
to see this event become a yearly
activity for years, to come.”
“Beach Party ’87” will take
place in the courtyard located in
the center of the CCC campus.
Music, provided by a live D.J.,
will begin at 2 p.m. and continue
on until 8 p.m. The barbecues
will be fired up at 4:30 and will
begin serving at 5 p.m.
Activities will be in abundance.
Dancing, frisbee, volleyball, lim-
