Two teams from the local Awana Club participated fan this sporting event and both teams placed third in their visions. These Olympic games are inter -club events happening all across Canada and the United States. The first Olympic Meet for Awana club was held in Chicago in 1955. Since that time these games have grown in nwiber and popularity. The Clinton club has competed in the local meet for three years. The 1983 girls team in- cluded Heather Brownridge, Shelly Bonte-Gelok, Tammi Spence, Tammy Dupee, Terri Evans, Jaqua Lobb, Erica Crane, Julie Cook, Julie Davison, Megan Hodgins, Julia deJong, Sharon Hollinshead, Wendy Johnston, Cheri Watt, Angela McCool and Karli Manchus. Boys team The Boys 'Ream members were 'Jamie Cook, Shane Hollinshead, Ron Cook, Ed Bezzo, Danny Dupee, Steve Poirier, Jamie Poirier, Mat- thew Langendoen, Dwayne Strong and Jeff Thomson. Congratulations to both teams! Spirits were high and ex- citement filled the air as team members left from the Fellowship Bible Chapel in Clinton for Stratford. If you were on the road to Stratford that day, perhaps you noticed the group or heard the voices. There's something about a bus ride that inspires kids to sing. Several songs and choruses later they arrived in Strat- ford, and the cheers and songs continued. However, as they turned into the park- ing lot of the Northwestern High School and saw so many other buses and peo- ple, a hush descended on the crowd. In the dressing rooms old friends were recognized and greeted, then laughingly warned to watch out for Clin- ton on the game floor. Most of the trembling and giggling came out in the change room and squaring their shoulders the Clinton team members climbed into the spectator stands to wait in a group. They were early for the meet and had time to watch the end of the "Spark-a-rama". This is an Olympic meet for Awana Sparks club members in Kindergarten to Grade 2. At Awana Olympics the gymnasium floor is marked with tape into halves, each with a giant circle marked on. These circles are quartered with diagonal lines and all the events and races take place on or around the circle. Four teams compete together at one time. Boys teams com- pete against boys and con- versely girls against girls. Coaches in charge The Clinton teams were lined up along the yellow team line. Opposite, across the circle were the blue teams from Willowdale Church in Guelph. The club teams from Guelph Bible Chapel in red were on the left and to the right were the green teams from Stratford. Behind was another full circle with four girls teams and four boys teams seated around it. Altogether there were approximately 220 peo- ple directly involved in the games on the gymnasium floor at the same time. Each circle had a circle director, four line judges and eight team coaches in charge of order. Andrew Barker, the Awana missionary from London, welcomed everyone and outlined the afternoon's events. Fifteen girls from each team lined up for the Bean Bag Relay. Tensely they waited, poised to catch the bag and return it quickly. With a sharp bang from the starter's pistol, the Olympic games were underway. Event followed event quickly. The girls would o mplete the heats of each game or race, then the boys would run off the same con- test.. Every effort was ac- companied by cheers and shouted urging from teams and spectators. After six events were com- pleted a half time break was called and the Clinton group filed outside to chatter ex- citedly, munch grapes and encourage each other.
