they have done.” Miller has accomplished quite a bit on his own since becoming interested in the sport 10 years ago. Since then, he has become a regular judge for the American Water Ski Association and a regular scorer. He has also been a chief judge in various tournaments, five in this area this year. He worked the regional water skiing tournament in Brighton, Mich., two years ago as a judge and will be working at the nationals held in Tivoli Gardens, Brighton, Mich., August 23-27. 0 He, along with his wife, will also be two of the judges at a tournament in Kentucky on August 12. A past president of the Indiana State Water Ski Association, he now serves on its board of directors. He is also on the board of directors of the Dewart lake Ski Club.. Both he and his wife became interested in judging water skiing

tournaments together. He always attended tournaments as a spectator and one day was given a change to help out as a judge. He said, “The interest just grew.” Now, he enjoys being a judge because of the variety of people he meets. “The skiers are all fantastic,” he commented. Senior Judge The next step up the ladder for Miller is to become a senior judge. He is presently working towards that goal, but feels it will be several years in the making. For the present, he and his wife keep busy during the summer months attending a tournament on most week ends. Their four children also tag along and help out when they can. Shari, 16, is working for her scoring rating while Sheli, 14, does general work at the tournament sites. Both Shawna, seven, and Shantel, four, just enjoy watching. Miller has hopes that Shawna, who presently skis for fun, will eventually try out in competition. Largest State Tournament The state tournament, held at Nellans Lake in Warsaw, was determined one of the largest last week end with 1973 individuals competing. A total of 19 different water ski teams were represented. Marcia Jochim, Camelot Lake

Naturalists lead tour at Spring Mill Park

Visitors to the restored pioneer village at Spring Mill State Park can take a trip back through time on a naturalist-led candlelight tour. The tour interprets the story of the village’s rise and fall, its inhabitants and lifestyles. The tour starts in the village meeting house where Lois Mittino Gray, naturalist tour guide, relates the story of Samuel Jackson. Jr., and his search for a perfect mill site which ended in 1814 when he chose the village valley for his first log cabin mill. Candlelight Carrying candles to light the path, the tour group moves to the large limestone mill which was originally built in 1817, to discuss the next chapter in the village story As the candleglow creates '-flickering patterns on the millwheel, discussion is held on the Bullitt Brothers who built the mill, and on why the mill wheel turns mysteriously at night. Visitors on the third stop will meet and listen to naturalists portraying scenes of the village period. In the tavern, a typicjal scene is recreated with the help of park, visitors as revelers. Other scenes

include the village hatmaker, hog proot steps, a doctor’s office, and a porch scene. Tour dates include August 12, August 26 and September 9.
