Northern Outing
Golden Heart Christian School students pose in front of the rustic lodge used as the meeting place during their annual fall campout, under the direction of Barbara Quaile, grades 1–4 teacher, Oct. 11–13, 2002. Located in Fairbanks, Alaska, the school is the farthest north school in the North Pacific Union. The students enjoyed such amenities as propane for cooking and lodge lighting, wood stoves to keep the cabins warm, and an outhouse. There was no electricity or plumbing.
