If the weather was ok, the pilots'd take the students for a dip in the lake.

I got dunked during one ride in the 25th. Wasn't a waste pond, thank God. Actually we were dunked several times. I believe the pilots found special glee searching out all the available ponds in the AO.
Pretty much felt like a donut until my head got caught in the ropes and could not raise it above the water level. I thought this was a hell of a way to die. My only solace was thinking about all the paperwork the PL and pilots would have to fill out.
Also, it was amazing how cold you could be when you're soaking wet and flying through the air at the end of those ropes even on a warm day.
