Everbody knows that when it's hot, you go swimming. Well, yesterday was hot, and many campers took the appropriate course of action. The EWU has quite a nice swimming facility, but not many people noticed this, as they were preoccupied with providing a much needed coolant-flush for their brains. A favorite activity in the pool is the diving board. And where there's a diving board, there's a wide variety of dives, flips, flops, and assorted mutations thereof (the Wes Flail).

It is a well known fact that teenagers cannot come together in a group without some sort of competion developing. As it stands, here are the results of the first Cannonball and Jackknife Contests. The best cannonball goes to Brendan Johnson, even though he blantenly and deliberatly cheated by jumping closer to the wall. The jackknife contest was a bit more complicated, mainly because no one really knew how to do a jackknife. We think Clay Elliot won, because his splash was the biggest; but no one's really sure. Following the contests (indescisive as they were), it was decided that the next athletic competition should be the appropriatly titled Basketball In A Pool. As you, the gifted youngster, may have inferred, this game entails playing basket while in a pool. Alas, the unstoppable team of Pete & Pete was not able to contain massive flood of righteous athletic prowess once again unleashed by Brenden "The Man" Johnson. But it doesn't matter, because before a winner was declared, enough people quit that the game just gradually died off. In summary, the pool is cool. But don't go there during Rec Time, or else it will be too crowded, and then it will suck. And that's no good for anybody.
