which commenced in 1949 after a
group of Extension workers from
Texas visited the Black Hills Lab-
oratory in South Dakota, offers
opportunity for learning and shar-
ing recreation skills, abilities and
interests. "It is an excellent chance
for people who assist in community
activities for the school, church,
camps and cluj>s to learn more
about recreation," she added.
The Laboratory has been plan-
ned around an international theme,
"Hands Around the World." Kach
day's program, meals and activities

theme as the group develops ideas.
