I was in the Meteorology Club, so I got involved with their activities. I had to man the booth there, but I always thought it was the best spot because all the action was over there. To this day it is still the same; you still have the same activities, everyone participates from the school.

I graduated in 92 so it wasn't too long ago. I guess ‘88 was the first year I was here.

The cockroach races, I remember that, that was right next to us, the food, the activities, it was a great time. From morning until night, it was just one day to celebrate

Ag Field Day is unique to Cook College . That is what's cool about it, its own unique niche. Some of my other friends from other campuses would come over and they didn't quite have that kind of thing.

I've been coming back every year when I can. I like to bring the kids when I can.

I lived in the apartments and we always had parties there. We did all our activities, we manned the booths and all that and then in the afternoon we started our barbeques and the families would come in and it was just like one big family over there at the apartments. Everyone's family would show up, parents and grandparents, it was just a great time. I don't think we ever had a bad day either. So I remember those times as well. Throwing the Frisbee around Passion Puddle and doing the picnics. So that's what I remember, not much has changed, just a few more buildings.

I just hope it keeps going; it is a great excuse to get out here.
