When not dining out,
Cathy Whaley cooked
meals for the stu-

enjoyed eating out at

building their own

class dined at Dick’s

The class did not
complete a service

trip due to the una-
vailability of an ap-
propriate project.
The class plans to
discuss a future pro-

The trip was a
HUGE success.
The class had
a great time as

EXPENSE REPORT
Students had the
opportunity to zip
line through the
tree tops in the
Smokey Mountains.
The zip line course
existed of over
4,000 feet of cable.
With different safe-
ty checkpoints
throughout the
course, the last trek
was down the hill
and over the park-
ing lot. Guides
working for the zip
line company said
they have reached
nearly 65 mph zip
lining down the hill.
The students relied
on their own gloved
hands for speed or
to slow down and
whether fast or
slow, they all made
it to the finish line!.
