Show RECREATION ACTIVITIES COPPERFIELD Our second week of recreation was more enjoyable than our first. We introduced dancing into our program with such dances as Oxford Minuet and the Schott-ishe. Schott-ishe. We drew pictures, braided boondoggle and water colored pictures. Also played many games gam-es and had relay races. On Wednesday we went to Murray park for Huck Finn day and really had a swell time fishing, fish-ing, swimming, and I almost forgot, for-got, eating. We didn't catch many fish from this area but we surely enjoyed watching the experienced experienc-ed fishermen drag in the trout. Prizes were awarded for the first fish caught, largest fish caught and the most fish caught by boys and girls respectively, and also for the best dressed boy and girl. We will all miss our friend and leader, Sandy, but we will try to carry on as he would have us do if he were here. Reported by Jim Carrigan and Pat Redmond.
