COLLEGE BOYS IN THE SNOW - BIG BEAR FEB. 1965

2010   THE YEAR OF VALLEY ADVENTURES

In February 1965 a bunch of Pierce College fraternity boys rented a cabin for the weekend at Big Bear.

 Snow boarding was not well known in the mid '60s, but a Pierce student couldn't resist trying out his surfing techniques on this sled.

 I suspect these fellows are standing on a derelict boat, either that or they should have known how to swim.

KAPPA BETA PHI GIRLS AT FRATERNITY PARTY 1965

2010  THE YEAR OF VALLEY ADVENTURES

One of the party themes loved by college students in the 1960s and 70s was "Return to High School Night". Sometimes gender reversal costumes were worn just to make things more zany.
