A Grade 2 class toured the
Post Office and the Expositor
to learn about the daily
routines "behind the
scenes". They learned how
to be a postmaster and an
editor all, in one morning.
The indergarten class
visited three of the churches
in town and participated inn
"litter grab".
The day appeared.to be a
success `for both the child-
ren and the organizations
they visited. Ken and Cheryl
Roth, owners of Roth's Food
Market, said they enjoyed it
and thought it was a.great
idea for the kids to get our int
the community. Marlene
Britton, a Grade 2 teacher,
was also pleased with the
enthusiasm of the students.
What did the students
think? Below are some com-
ments.

Tracy Reae• reports.
"When I was helping take
the trays to the tables for the
residents I felt very helpful
and hoped when I got older
and came to a home like that
that children would come,and
help me."
Andy Ball sums it up like
this. "1 felt as though we
helped out and had done
something nice for the old
people. It was a good exper-
ience for me and my class to
find out how some old people
in our county live."
Steven Schroeder said
"We stopped to talk to a few
men. VVesstayed for an hour:
Brad Beuttenmiller, Terry
Gray, • Andy and I played
euchre for half an hour. I felt
helpful, happy and excited."
Randy Nevers assured us
"I would really love to go
there again. I loved going
around talking to the people
and pushing them in the
wheel • chair."
