field School at 9 am. on a Satur-
day morning with their food and
equipment and hiked in the beauti-
full early morning sunshine TO
Como. On arrival a group was as

another to get food ready for
cooking and another to set tables

eggs were cooked over a glowing
fire-golden brown toast and the

Of their duties at close range. At
tire a tasty breakfast cooked in the
open-clean up and packing of
equipment-fires out-we took in
some of the rides-pop, cherios,
Floss Candy, pop corn and then a
visit to the Zoo where we saw the
young Tiger basking in the warm
sunshine and the Lion and Lioness
and then Just in time for the Live

aroud the Lagoon-with a snap
or two of the group on our way

points on their Out Door Cook
