<p>We have 91 students going, 14 upperclassmen and the rest plebe candidates.</p>
<p>Almost all of the time will be free for swimming, sailing, hiking, playing outdoor games, challenged by the obstacle course. Saturday night we will have a bonfire on the beach, with S’mores, guitars and lots of stories and laughter. It will be a real break for the plebe candidates with no musters, salutes, or scedules. We are bringing a twelve foot screen with us, for movies later Saturday evening.</p>
<p>Early Saturday evening for one hour, there will be religious services with the chaplains from different faiths leading the services.</p>
<p>Sunday morning we have one meeting planned for everyone together. The topic is male/female relationships in the college scene. I have baked lots of harvest loaves, which is a favorite with the students.</p>
<p>You will hear great reports from your sons/daughters, they have a good time.</p>
<p>My Son was very excited about this weekend break. He and We are looking forward to parents weekend. I’m maning the NC tent from 2-3. I’ll have a nametag. Stop by for a “HI”
