Re: Patti Ashbaugh and the diving tower @ Ahquabi

I was at 4-H camp with Patti. All week I had been working up my nerve to jump off the top of that big diving tower at Lake Ahquabi. Every day I climbed up the rickety ladder, feeling the whole structure move whenever anyone jumped off. I never could make myself jump, though, until I saw Patti do it.

I thought, "if that little squirt has enough courage to do it, so can I!" That was the first of many jumps off the tower! Joanne Croat Beck
