BUXTON SENIORS VISIT
N. CAROLINA MOUNTAINS
Last week seven members of thej
senior class of Cape Hatteras j
School went on the annual senior
trip. The group left the school on
Tuesday morning, hoping to reach
Asheville by night. Several mis
haps prevented this and the group
spent Tuesday night in Lexington.
On Wednesday afternoon the
seniors reached Asheville and spent
tiie remainder of the afternoon see
ing local sights. Several of the
seniors and the chaperones even
tried mountain climbing. On Thurs
day the group visited the Indian
village at Cherokee and planned
to ride along the Blue Ridge Park
way, see Mount Mitchell, and
dimb Grandfather Mountain. The
weather refused to co-operate and
the Parkway drive was accom
plished during a heavy fog and
snowstorm so that little was seen.
The seniors, however, were de
termined to climb Grandfather
Mountain which they did. They got
to tire top, tired and thirsty, to
find the temperature below freez
ing and tiie water fountain frozen
and were forced to quench their
thirst by eating handfuls of snow.
Thursday night was spent in
Statesville. The group started home
on Friday, but the two carloads
were separated, one getting home
on Friday night and the other on
Saturday morning.
In spite of the bad weather and
otiier incidents, everyone enjoyed
■ the trip and would like to repeat
it. Seniors making the trip were
Jo Anne Midgett, Virginia Tolson,
tllaudine Williams, Betty Price,
Ruby Fagley, Dale Burrus, and
. Robert Austin. They were chap
eroned by Mrs. Kathryn Midgett
and Miss Kaye Whitfield.
