of parent you want to be. Try the
home study course for “Parents
of Toddlers” - you can’t lose!
4-H Sponsors Day on Wheels
With the promise of trans
portation and a free dinner,
some fifty to sixty local boys and
girls were lured to a very
tempting afternoon of fun and
games on eight wheels. The out
ing was sponsored through the
Warm Springs 4-H program.
The 3rd to 6th grade kids
were bussed to the Bend Rollar
Skating Rink Friday, January
20. An on-the-spot view found a
few of the kids timidly clutching
the walls, sitting on the floor,
hanging onto the side-rails, while
the more experienced were glid
ing with ease around the rink.
The kids weren’t the only
sports enthusiasts trying the
acrobatic stunts. Four of the five
chaperones were spotted - at
tempting a few of the tricks with
less than spectacular results.
The braver and more ex
perienced kids could be seen
doing a dance routine to the
“Hokey Pokey.” Although some
were experienced, most could be
found on the waxed floor or
clutching onto the purple carpet
ed walls.
The easier of the two games
played that afternoon seemed to
be Prison Ball. Dodging the ball
was the object of this game, but
more kids were getting hit by
the ball, the rules of the game
being if they got hit they had to
leave the skating arena until no
one remained.
Although this game ended a
fun afternoon of skating, die day
hadnst ended totally. All sixty
kids and chaperones were load
ed back up into the already
over-crowded bus, and into three
private vehicles provided.
They departed for Mc
Donalds where all were treated
to a free dinner. From there
they were homeward bou e^
At the end of the excursion,
with another day gone, most of
the kids said “they wouldn’t
mind skating again.”
All fifty to sixty kids who
participated are members of one
of the many different 4-H clubs
around the reservation.
