Or so it seems following this Saturday's successful Port perry High School Rent-a-Student effort to raise money for needed athletic equipment. According to organizers, well over the target figure of $300 has been raised, and all worksheets that have been returned to the school have shown "employer satisfac- tion" to the point where some have asked when such a project will start again, About 57. young people were "hired out" for jobs ranging from pitching hay to piling lumber. Most common job seemed to be painting and moving top soil. Almost 34 of the jobs were all-day efforts, some from as early as 8 p.m. and to as late as 5:30 p.m. Already, organizers hope that a similar event can be held again in the fall. "It was obviously a worth- while effort," said organizer Arend Dekker, physical education teacher at the school. "It was an adventure 'and a good experience for the people involved." ._ He said that the enthus- iasm-and results-of the project for both the student and those using the service was obvious. "It was an all-around success,' he said. "It gener- ated a lot of student enthus- iasm." Rent-a-student A ARR TC Lh IS RD NARA DR RT ROS \ on !
