Hit the Trails with Mrs. Johnson!

You will be able to find Mrs. Johnson and her husband on the PA hiking

trails this summer. She provided the Rampages with some of the best

trails in the area.

~Ricketts Glenn is near Sunbury. They have 26 trails and plenty of

waterfalls to enjoy.

~White Rock in Boiling Springs has plenty of rock climbing and joins the

Appalachian Trail.

~Pine Grove, near Chambersburg, has 4 miles of trails and ends at Pole

Steeple Overlook.

~Pinnacle in Harrisburg leads to Pulpit Rock. This view ranks as one of

the highest points of the Appalachian Trial.

~Colonial Denning State Park in Cumberland County has 4 trails. They

are Flat Rock, Tuscarora Trail, Doublin Gap Nature Trail and Rattle-

snake Trail. These trails are all very challenging.

Hope to see you on the trails!

Goodbye!!

Hello and Goodbye! This is sadly my last article! I am sad and happy. I am sad because I am leaving the Rampages, with the wonderful Mrs. Hillman as the editor. And I am leaving the library as a library helper with the amazingly awesome librarian Ms. Fetterhoff. I am also happy because I will be attending the HUGE Central Dauphin High School. The other thing I am excited for at the high school is the musical. I can’t wait for one of my electives; Dramatic Arts. I had a great 3 years writing for the Rampages. You might want to join! Have a great summer! Tyler Magill

Artist Issues

Sometimes when an artist draws in public they may have issues. For example, the place may be full of people and they can’t get anything accomplished. They may wish they went at a different time. Below are a few things that may frustrate an artist:

Not thinking their art is good enough

Always comparing their art to others

Afraid of wasting their art supplies

People asking them to draw something they want

People asking them to draw a self portrait

When told that art isn’t a Great career choice That’s all for now, hope to see you next time!
