_ Nsw:

Summer beckons...traffic is lighter and
numerous parking spots in the Douglas
College parkade make sleeping an extra
five minutes in the morning a delicious
reality. Finally, hockey is over and
summer sports -- lounging in the
lawnchair with a good book on a sultry
summer evening -- are taking
precedence. It's time to spend Saturday
afternoons at the beach or enjoy sitting
under a spreading oak with the sun
filtering through emerald leaves. Pass
the iced tea, please...

Holidays, holidays...

Darlene Kress, Departmental Assistant
in the Mathand Science department
joined Helen Palmer, Bio Technician
for four late April days in 108 Mile
where they enjoyed a “Spa Spoiler” at
Hills Health Ranch. There they met
people from all over the world while
enjoying hiking and delicious calorie-
reduced cuisine in the peace of the
Cariboo. Darlene highly recommends
the experience. Sue Vincent , Publicist
Assistant in the PIO and family spent a
week in June avoiding the floods in
Alberta and managed to enjoy the

Toronto where she met up with old
friends from Montreal. There they
recalled the days of playing Hide ‘n
Seek together as children.
