Palassa's Exciting Summer:"Palassa's Exciting Summer"
This summer I went up to Fairbanks for 6 weeks. I left Marshall on June 7, 1991 and got home on July 19, 1991. When I got to Fairbanks we settled in and waited for the other students to come. After the students got in, the next day we went to a camp. The camp was called Camp Bingle. We stayed there for 2 nights and 3 days. When we were there we got to know each other more by splitting up into groups and telling each other about ourselves. Our counselors taught us about camp life and how to use camp equipment. We played a lot of games and did a lot of skits for the whole 3 days. Then we headed back to campus where we started to register for our classes. We had 2 required classes and 2 electives. The classes I took were: Math 001, Language Arts 003, Art, P.E., and Swimming. Our classes were pretty long. They were about an hour and 30 minute classes. Our classes lasted until 3:15. Then we had to go to study hall at 3:30, and it ended at 5:00. The classes I took were the same for the whole 6 weeks. My teacher for Math 001 was Dawn, for Language Arts it was Sara Darnelle McGee, for Art it was Jane, for swimming it was Shanie and for P.E. it was Paul. My tutor counselors were Kathie, Joanne, Paul, James, Victor, Karen, Chris, Colleen, Dovya, John and others whose names I have forgotten. We ate our breakfast, lunch and dinner at the Wood Center. We even got our snacks from there too. We used to go out on weekend trips to Chena Hot Springs, Denali National Park, Valdez and Anchorage. I learned a lot of things that I hardly knew before and I wish I could go there again. By: Palassa Sergie ![]() | |
