VERMONT TRIP:

On behalf of myself, and many other students, I would like to formally address the Drug

and Alcohol problem that accompanied the 1999-2000 school year Vermont trip. Many times I

have heard stories about the .infamous. Vermont Ski trip, and the many illegal things that have

occurred consistently throughout the years. To the best of my knowledge this behavior was

ignored, overlooked, and typical of this trip. So in believing that this kind of .partying. was

habitual, I decided to participate along with several others who had attended past trips.

At first I was hesitant in bringing anything, but after a couple of conversations with certain

individuals, I was convinced that it would be all right to do so without any punishment being

enforced. Thus brought me to obtaining the .single. bottle I was bringing for a friend ,and I to

consume with others, along with the other alcoholic beverages brought on the trip by my peers.

This brings us to the time of departure for Vermont, on Thursday March 17, 2000. At

approximately 11:50 PM I arrived to load the bus. At a little after 12:00 AM we left the Holley

High School for Vermont, without .A BAG CHECK. by any of the seven chaperones. After a ten

hour drive we arrived at our destination, Stowe Ski Resort. At around 4:30 PM we loaded the bus

to go to the Courtyard By Marriot, the hotel in which we would be staying at for the remainder of

the trip. Following our arrival we were given the room assignments, we then unpacked our bags

quickly, and my roommates and I hid the alcohol that we each brought under our beds. After that

a majority of us students went to the pool, and jacuzzi for a swim before our expected 7:00 PM

dinner time. Dinner lasted for about a half an hour, to forty-five minutes, and soon after I then

again went to the pool with a couple of people for another swim.

Around 8:30 PM I returned upstairs to a friends room, where I then received a phone call

from one of my roommates asking me if I planned on returning to our room to .drink.. I

answered hesitantly, but after a little debating I decided to go back to my room. At that moment I

only returned ,to change out of my swim clothes, before I headed back to the friends room. While

I was in my room changing I was asked by two of my roommates to compare their drinks, and

decipher which was better. This then proves that the alcohol, both mine, and my roommates, had

already been out and consumed long before I first returned. After that, I went to my friends room

and we both then returned to my room at about 9:00pm. Upon arrival we had found six other

people in my room already there for one purpose. I then proceeded to ask one of my roommates

where the bottles were, he then replied .in the liquor cabinet,. sure enough there I found all the

alcohol moved from under the beds where I last knew it to be, into the place where I was storing

my clothes. At that moment I removed .the bottle. from the cabinet to pass around to my friends.

First I had opened the bottle so that everyone could smell the Butter Scotch aroma. After passing

it around to all eight people including myself., we then all took .one baby sip. from the bottle.

A few moments after that most of the people in my room decided to go take a swim. Then

three female students left to go change into their swimming attire, leaving my friend, three of my

roommates, and myself in the room. At this point the bottle had been sealed for a couple of

minutes. I was then listening to one of my roommates tell a story, while the other two changed.

During this short period of time there was a knock on the door, and Mr. Orbaker who was the ski

trip advisor, walked into the room to see me holding the bottle in my hands. After I got done

listening to my roommates story I then noticed Mr. Orbaker standing in the hallway staring at me.

He then motioned for me to walk over to him, as I did he signaled for the bottle, grabbed the

liquor and proceeded to say. way to be an *censored*. and he then exited the room.

Five minutes following the above incident he returned to the room, then started yelling at

us with profane words. Screaming at us he then mentioned how he, has my room with alcohol,

one room smoking cigarettes, and another room lighting a bowl full of Marijuana. Furiously he

next told everyone to get to their rooms and dispose of anything we didn.t want him to see,

because there .might be. a bag and room check. At this moment two of my roommates quickly

emptied their alcohol into the sink and hid the empty bottles. Moments later he then went to every

room and told them to rid of anything that was inappropriate on this trip, and how their might be

checks through the night, and we had to sleep with our doors open. At 10 PM all students on the

trip turned in for the night. To the best of my memory he was only checking rooms to see if we

were engaging in any type of .partying.. Approximate
