The Title IV-A counselor posi

The Third Annual Miss Indian
USA Pageant was a great success.
The three young ladies from the
Northwest placed in the top ten
finalists: they were Mary Alice Moon,
Puyallup, WA, Lynn Lee Hall,
Provo, Utah and Lyda Dreamis
Scott, Warm Springs, Oregon.
It was again an honor to be affil
iated with the American Indian
Heritage Week of Events, as a
National pageant assistant Direc
tor. I would have to report that it
was great to have more Warm
Springs people in attendance to
help encourage and support this
great program for Indian people.
Thanks to Gabriel Sohappy, Jr.
Hostess, Pat Smith, and Anita Davis
who were provided airfare only
from the Johnson O'Malley com
mittee and Debbie Smith and Direlle
Calica who attended through per
sonal expense.
Lyda Scott was a lovdy repre
sentative from Warm Springs and
presented herself well. She will also
be presenting an overview program
to the Junior and Senior high school
to encourage them to participate in
Warm Springs Elementarj' celebrated
"fitness." Our Wellness team lead
ers planned a week of activities for
students and staff which gave eve
rybody many opportunities to exer
cise and talk about how to achieve
wellness in our lives. The week
began with a school-wide assembly
and balloon launch to advertise the
"Great American Smoke-Out."The
next day, students created and per
formed cheers during lunch time to
promote fitness. On Wednesday a
one-mile fun run was held at noon
for students, staff and community
members. Thursday gave students
in the fifth grade an oppor
tunity to test the staffs fitness.
They challenged the staff to a soccer
game on the front field.
Throughout the week, classrooms
created posters and murals about
fitness concepts to hang in the hall.
Classrooms kept track of fitness
minutes in hopes of winning the
"Class Fitness Contest." Winners
of this contest will receive wellness
snacks, donated by Macy Market.
Also, teachers had an opportunity
to participate in some aerobics
classes, taught by Eva Monteeand
Jane Fonda. A big thank you goes
to Dawn Smith and Vicki Moore
for planning a week of activities for
everyone.

look at a day in the life of Otsego
students. We have also sent them a
video of WSE, including film taken
at our fall Powwow.
