WAGNERS ENJOY AUTUMN TRIP Jerry Wagner was a real doll and phoned with news of the recent trip she and hubby Lloyd enjoyed to points north and east. They spent nine days on the road and added 3,300 miles to their car when they drove to Buffalo, New York, where they viewed Niagara Falls from both the Canadian and American sides. They then were off to Waynesville, Pa., where they visited Jerry's relative. From there they drove to Gettsyburg, Lancaster and Montvale, Pa., where they enjoyed the many sites as well as the beautiful autumn weather. They spent some time in Glouchester, Mass., where they stayed at a place located right at the edge of the Atlantic Ocean. On the return trip home they visited Ottawa, Canada, and Lake Champlain which they thoroughly enjoyed. Jerry said it was a beautiful time to visit these places and that though they were glad to be home where they could stand up for awhile, they had a tremendous trip!

"Halloween music was played and the girls enjoyed delicious snacks consisting of cake and cookies. The funniest costume was shared by Vicky Kopsell. who was an old lady and Lisa Bassett who was the old man, fashioned after the Laugh-In characteers. The best costumes were Diane Fena who was a jennie, Kim Cynowa who was a flower and Kelly Swiges who was a gypsy lady. Games and prizes were highlights of the evening and I was told Susan Treadwell won the M & M game. I just find it hard to believe that the troop's very helpful scribe was a devil!
