For the first t1me in our c lub' hisiory ::nconducted our rou~h night activities overnight ~t Camp Takodah. It wa) tremen– dously successful because it gav us a chance to r1d ourselve of alI barriers and t unite as a stronq club should. My on ly regret was a hike in which ,orne of our pledges were led blind-folded to the edge ~fa bluff. The dang7r of them fdl1inq wasp rhaps minimized by two escorts but 1t added two gray hatrs to my young scalp. Our sports competition was great in that we had a lot of team unity. We l acked the spiritual emphasis we needed but over alI we competed very successfully. Our greatest honor came with the second title in Spr ing Sing with "Devi I 's and AnQels" under Tim Woodroof direction. One of the greatest challenges our club encountered was the campaign over spring break. We went from a smal I country town with a few Christians to a university city with several hundred Christians. We went to Athens, Ohio and worked with the Blackburn Hi I I Church of Christ. Ed White, our sponsor, conducted the meet– ing and Wirt Cook was the minister. Having over 100 studies, 90 cal I backs and 90 correspondence courses amazed us and we were alI enr i ched by the experience. My only regret is that we worked ourselves to death with I ittle time for rest and reI a at ion. Our banquet was held at the Hoi iday Inn in Jacksonvi I le, Ark. and was considered by alI a success. Our theme was "The Royal Flush" and we enjoyed that program with about 120 people. Of our strengths in the years 76-77 I would place club unity and pride high on the list. Of our weaknesses I would place our lackofspiritual emphasis at the top. Over all a tremendous year with much to be proud about.
