Campus sweeps county fair stakes—all that Pat Patterson will reveal
about her prize-winning apple pie is that "the crust's secret is Crisco." Pat,
supervisor of the College Eight steno pool, entered her Newtown pippin pie
in the 1980 Santa Cruz County Fair and took home the blue ribbon.
Campus culinarians cornered the market, with other first places going to
Cowell's Angie Christmann for her sage honey, and to Cowell's Sherry
Versaggi for her peach preserves.
Parcourse
now open
Do you beg off by saying "but
I get bored!" when your colleagues entreat you to join
them for a lunchtime jog? You're
now without defense, because
UCSC has made available a fitness
facility that breaks up that lonely
long-distance run with a series of
exercise stations designed for a balanced and varied physical workout.
The new Parcourse is a jogging
path that starts at the West Field
House and winds through the redwoods up to Kresge and back. Each
station along the circuit provides
equipment for either stretching,
muscular strengthening, cardiovascular conditioning or cool-down,
along with complete instructions
for its use. Open year-round, the
Parcourse is free for both campus
and community members.
Construction of the Parcourse
was partly funded by a subsidy from
the Perrier company that allowed
UCSC to augment private funds
raised from local community
groups. The Office of Physical Education and Recreation has received
a few complaints about the fact that
the Parcourse signs bear the Perrier
logo. OPER Director Wayne
Brumbach remarked that "the Perrier logo represented on campus is
really no different than having
IBM's logo on all the campus typewriters, or Xerox machines, or
Chrysler Corp. motor vehicles. We
hope that the Perrier logo is seen as
a meaningful and valuable gesture
to the campus and not a commercial endorsement."
