Teen Canteen Provides
Pastime F or The Kiddies
Many parents and a few teen
age children have not heard of
what Boone is doing to provide
wholeiome entertainment (or
theit children. This program is
carried out just one night a week,
but on tnat night, the boys and
girls have the time of their life.
The program will build as enthu
siasm and attendance grow at the
gatherings, and they are asking
the cooperation of all parents who
are interested in their childs wel
fare.
Since they meet just above the
Blue Ridge Supply, equipment is
limited, but they try to make up
for it in good wholesome recrea
tion. Square dances, charades,
cards, games such as wink, poor
kitty cat, rhythm, fruit basket
turn over, scrabble, and refresh
ments lead the list of activities, i
The Canteen has an excellent re- i
cord player, card tables, conces
sion box, cards, and in the near !
future hope to have a ~>ing pong j
table to fadd to the variety.
The recreation commission has
employed a sponsor for Jhe can- i
teen and there are two to three
chaperons at every gathering. Dr.
Crew, new principal is the fall
chairman, and will be at most of
the meetings.
Last year there was a member
ship fee of one dollar. This has
been discontinued and everyone
is invited and urged to come at
no expense. The refreshment# are
hahdled on an honorary basis.
You are responsible for making
your own chance, while receiving
r
your candy or drink.
This is only ? start of what the
canteen hopes will one day grow
into a community recreation cen
ter which will be enjoyed by all
the citizens of Watauga Couitfy.
