...GOVERNOR EVANS TO OFFICIATE AT OPENING OF RECREATION CENTER...Governor Daniel J. Evans
will be the featured speaker at the official public opening of Evergreen's new two million
dollar Recreation Center on May 17. The program, scheduled to be held in the covered outdoor mall between the Recreation and College Activities Buildings, will start at 11 a.m.
The public event will also be attended by state legislators, city and county officials in
Thurston County, representatives of the project architect and general contractor, and
college staff and trustees. President Charles J. McCann will serve as master of ceremonies.
The program will also include brief remarks by Evergreen Board of Trustees Chairman Trueman
Schmidt and guided tours of the new 54,500-square foot structure.
Numerous student recreation activities
including skin and scuba diving, swimming,
and kayaking demonstrations; a handball clinic; and dance, martial arts and weight-training
exercises
will be presented in various sections of the building as part of the opening
ceremony. The Recreation Center will be open for free public use from noon to 8:30 p.m.,
May 17.
...GUIDELINES FOR PUBLIC USE OF RECREATION CENTER OFFERED...Pete Steilberg, Director of
Recreation and Campus Activities, outlined policies for public use of the Recreation
Center this week. "Although the facility was built primarily to serve campus needs, we
view it as a recreational outlet for the general public," Steilberg explained. "Residents
of surrounding communities are welcome to use the building at any time during normal
operating hours." The building is open from noon to 8:30 p.m. Monday through Friday; from
1 to 8:30 p.m. Saturday; and from 1 to 6:30 p.m. on Sunday through the rest of Spring
Quarter, which ends June 8. The center will also be open during the summer, but the
schedule is yet to be determined, Steilberg added.
Public use of the building costs 75 cents per person per visit, which includes access
to all facilities, equipment check-out, towel service, and, if desired, use of swimming
suits. All facilities except the handball and paddleball courts may be used without prior
reservations. This includes the swimming pool, multi-purpose room, exercise and weighttraining areas, saunas and lockers.
All persons 12 years of age and under who use the building must be accompanied by a
parent, legal guardian or Evergreen sponsor. "This means the child's parent, legal
guardian o'r Evergreen sponsor must be with him or her at all times while using the
facility," Steilberg explained.

...ST. PETER HOSPITAL PROVIDES "CLASSROOM" FOR NINE EVERGREENERS...Nine student interns
are gaining a first-hand knowledge of medicine and daily hospital routine at Olympia's
new St. Peter Hospital. Working through the Office of Cooperative Education, the students
are sampling a wide variety of experiences, each relevant to their own career goals. Joy
Van Camp of Spokane is interning with Dr. Philip Vandemann, a pediatrician, and, as a result of her experiences at the hospital, has decided to become a doctor. Joe Bushnell of
Gig Harbor, who hopes to be a doctor of emergency medicine, is working in the Emergency
Room at St. Peter. Another student, Richard Cohen of Olympia, is interning as a nurses'
aide and also hopes to become a doctor.
Not all the Evergreeners are planning to be physicians, however. Janet Copeland, also
of Olympia, wants to be a dietician and is working with the hospital dietician; Michael
Smithson of Bellevue is interested in research and is assisting Dr. Johann A. Wulff, an
internist, in studies of the best treatments for five common ailments; and Bruce Wolcott,
a student photographer from Lansing, Michigan, is polishing his professional skills by
preparing a slide/tape presentation for the hospital's public relations and educational
programs. Work done by the students is being coordinated by Barbara Soule, director of
in-service education at the new 11-story hospital.
