hulahoop contest under the apple tree or have your picture taken in the
old fashion photo booth. The old "5 and 10 Store" will be open to

COLLEGE FAIR
Pittsburgh National College Fair
David Lawrence Convention Center Thursday, Feb. 28: 9:00 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. 6:00 p.m. - 9:00 p.m. Friday, Feb. 29: 9:00 a.m. - noon A brochure containing more information, including a list of attending colleges, is available in the Counseling Center.
This a great opportunity for
sophomores as well as juniors. There are over 100 schools in
attendance.. I have one suggestion sent in by a parent to pass
along - Make up a sheet of return address labels with your
child's name and address. It makes filing out the information
cards at the various booths go so much faster and it assures the
schools get the name and address correct without having to
interpret your child's handwriting.
