Community Youth Vacation Fun What to do with time during vacation from school? This is a question teenagers are asking. In an effort to provide answers to this question, a community Youth Week is being planned by the Church of the Nazarene. A Schedule of activities running each evening from December 28 to January 4 has been arranged, with an invitation extended to all youth of the community to share the fun. Highlights of the week of activities may be Tuesday’s feature motion picture for young people, “Downbeat”, to be shown at the Church of the Nazarene, and the Friday ban quet scheduled for the Methodist Fellowship Hall. Speaker for the banquet will be Jim Bond, former All American basketball player and member of the 1956 Olympic team, presently pastor of College Church of the Na- zarene in Nampa. An informative program is planned for this Sunday evening, Dec. 28, as a kick-off for Youth Week. Sergeant Johnson, Ada County Sheriff’s Department, will be speaking and answering questions regarding problems involved with drug usage. Both youth and parents are invited to share in this meeting which is to begin at 6:45 p.m. A detailed schedule of the activities is posted throughout the community for reference so that as many people as pos sible may know about and share in the community Youth Week activities. Further information may be secured by calling either of the co-chairmen, Barbara Fitzsimmons or Dave Manley.
