Have you College Station and
Bryan parents ever looked out the
window to see junior far a tree or
wrestling on the lawn f
If you are like most parents you
were concerned with his safety,
but at the same time you didn’t
wish to reprimand him too sternly
because you felt that he was only
finding an outlet for the natural
energy that seems so abundant in
children.
Thanks to Paul Andrews of the
AAM physical education depart
ment you can let junior work this
energy out of his system and be
assured of his safety at the same
time. Andrews recently started an
elementary tumbling class as a
community recreation program for
children of ages seven on up.
This tumbling class meets every
Saturday morning from eight on
in the tumbling room under the
NurjT1
rand
use.
