We Get Letters

To The Editor:
A lot of us are confused. When Chris gives course directions, are we supposed to clap after each turn, or is it like the symphony where you wait until all the movements are completed?

Signed
Holding My Applause

Dear Holding:
If Chris gives an extremely colorful description of, say, a water stop, by all means, let him know of your satisfaction, but don't be the first to applaud in case others don't feel the way you do. As a general rule, be ready to clap, but don't start anything.

To the Editor:
I've heard a lot of conflicting advice about where to meet for the Portage Bicentennial Run this week (March 31). Most people say we meet at Kilgore. What do you recommend?

Signed,
Alone at Milham

Dear Alone:
Typically, when campers are confused, we recommend carpooling and dropping people at the various sites where you believe camp will begin. In this case, because of the history of confusion, we suggest you go to the corner of Kilgore and Lovers Lane.

To the Editor:
March came in like a lion. With everything else we've faced this year, I'm fearful that it won't "go out like a lamb". What's the word?

Signed,
Weather Weary

Dear Weary:
You can say one thing about Run Camp Saturdays this year. They've had personality. Look for more of the same this week when you gather at Kilgore and Lovers Lane. When your great-grandchildren are sitting by your bedside at the nursing home, pretending to care what you did when you were young and active, you can say . . . "I remember the Winter of Ought Seven" and go from there.







Lord, What Now?
