Swimming Trip
Image
Several girls in swimsuits are standing in shallow water. Caption reads: "IT WAS a brisk day when inner core children visited West Bend park. But the children, accompanied by the Rev. Gene Afseth of Hephatha Lutheran church, 1720 W. Locust St., enjoyed every minute of the visit. A group of girls (left) braved the water and moved about to keep warm."
