In addition, the teens will be available to make presentations, act as con­ sultants and serve on teen panels. Teens are selected to participate in TEENS & COM PA N Y through an audition process in the spring of each year. Once selected, the cast spends over 180 hours o f their sum m er months in intensive drama and sexu­ ality education training. Through dis­ cussion and improvisational exer­ cises, the teens decide which mes­ sages they feel are most important to convey to their peers. They then de­ velop theatrical skits to com m uni­ cate these m essages through a dra­ matic perform ance. Septem ber is filled with hours of rehearsal time with professional theatre coaches.

The program has been seen by over 100,000 teens throughout Oregon and W ashington for nearly a decade. This year’s group will be bigger and better than ever! In an effort to reach more teens by performing more shows, while at the same time cutting down on cast members’ absences from school, the number o f teens in the program has been doubled. This year’s 26 cast members will be divided into two casts of 13 each. Each cast will per­ form the same show, but at different locations, thus allowing us to in­ crease the number of productions available to the community. An exciting new component has been added to this successful peer education model: the teens will now be available to provide interactive group presentations to classrooms andcom m unity groups. Thiscom po- nent will allow teachers and others who request talks on Birth Control, Sexual Decision making, STDs and AIDS, to select either an adult speaker NIKE TOWN & FOX 49 KPDX TO HONOR AMATEUR ATHLETES OF THE MONTH Sometimes just making the team is a bigger victory than tossing the winning touchdown or popping a three-pointer at the buzzer. N ike Town and Fox 49 KPDX have estab­ lished the Amateur Athlete of the Month award to recognize the ac­ complishments of amateur athletes who make the most of their abilities, even though they may not be the “star” players. “The headlines are full of the accomplishments of the region’s top athletes,” explained Scott Reames, N ike Town E vents C oordinator. “They certainly deserve the recogni­ tion, but what about the kid who to nominate or be nominated. Offi­ cial rules are outlined on the entry form. Each month, one male and fe­ male athlete will be chosen from among the nom ination forms re­ ceived. In keeping with OSAA and W IAA athlete guidelines, no cash or merchandise will be awarded, but athletes will be featured on a display wall at Nike Town and included in television spots that will air on Fox 49.

No purchase necessary YOUNG GOLFEHS PLAY AND EARN For the middle school students in volved in P o rtlan d P arks & Recreation’s KADDIES program, golf is much more than just fun and games for the older set. Through the program, young people are as­ signed to caddie for a specific golfer all through the season. In exchange, the young caddie earns spending money (between $ 10 and $20/week) and is encouraged to learn the game of golf. The program provides all caddies with golf lessons and basic golf equipm ent. But it is the rela­ tionships that are built between the young caddies and their assigned golfers that makes this program unique. Standing for “ Kids and Adults Developing Diversified Interests in Em ploym ent”, the KADDIES pro­ gram is first and foremost a mentor­ ing program. Using the game of golf, KADDIES helps build self esteem, teaches responsibility, and introduces career options for the young people involved. Much like the successful Eagle Program for High School students, it is hoped that the KADDIES program will encourage young people from di­ verse ethnic groups todiscover their own potential through the game of golf. The Portland School District is com m itted to recruiting young people for the program. New this summer, the program involved 18 students. 30% of those students were minorities.

The 12-round bout tops a five- fight card presented by Top Rank that can be seen live on CBS at 5 p.m. ET/2 p.m. PT De La Hoya (14-0, 13 KOs) is the brightest young star in boxing today. Possessing incredible speed, size and strength for a lightweight, he has dem olished everyone in his path. Celebrating his move to the light­ weight division in style, De La Hoya took only seconds in round two to annihilate former world champion Jorge Paez and capture his second world title. The 21-year-old from East Los Angeles was the only Gold Medalist on the 1992 Olympic boxing team. He has made his professional debut on Nov. 23, 1992 at the Great W est­ ern Forum with a quick first-round knock out over Lam ar W illiams. Since his pro debut, he has destroyed all 13 opponents with only Mike Grable remaining on his feet. De La Hoya, who has his sights set on six world titles, hopes to have a show­ down with fellow Californian and current 1BF lightweight champion Rafael Reulas sometime next year that the numbers of participants will grow as school counselors learn about the program and as KADDIES proves itself. The mentors are re­ cruited through the Police Athletic League and the Portland Parks & Recreation G olf Program. The O r­ egon G olf A ssociation and the L.P.G.A. are involved in caddie training and assist with administra­ tion o f the program. Golfer/M entors must play at least once/week. Once assigned a caddie, the golfer arranges golf dates and times directly with his or her caddie. The caddie is responsible for getting to the course on time and to do their job. At the end o f the round, the golfer gives the caddie a voucher which can be redeemed from the concessionaire at the course. It all seem s to w ork very w ell.
