CEDU / Brown Schools and derivatives / clones / The Summit: The Red/Green Game
« on: December 13, 2005, 02:47:00 AM »
"the red green game was when we broke into 2 groups, and had to basically argue with each other, to win points..the 2 groups were suppose to represent our positive and negative statments.. they told us that to win we basically had to argue until we were able to see each other's points.... but the purpose of the game was to get both groups working together.. which was the point of the 2 groups... to show that you can get your negative and positive statements to work together and work for you... kind of like they did in the I and Me"...

Actually, you already described it pretty well.  I'll see what I can do with that.  Kind of hard to keep it from being boring, but we'll see.  Thanks again...

So, what is it exactly?

By the way, Joe, thanks for all of the notes.  It has really, really helped me write my play.  I can't thank you enough.

I can never find an answer to exactly how this exercise went.  This is the only part of "The Summit" that I don't understand.  The rest of my play that is based on the workshop is essentially done, or will be in the next 48 hours, but this... ?  If anyone could help me out a little I would be very grateful.  Thanks...

I was also wondering if I could get what the rest of those signs said.  I shot you an e-mail.

"So, let me get this straight... day one and two are like normal raps, day three is the raft exercise and the funeral/death/obituary day, day four is the costume party and day five is neighborhoods/contracts?  I can't get these days straight.  When do you go into Bonners and talk to people, the urban challenge I think its called (or do you)?  How does the Summit kick off?  How do they wrap it up?  What in the hell does "The Rose", roses or "Fame" (the song that everyone dances to) have to do with anything?  What in the hell is the red/green game?  I am confused.

wow... its been like 10 years... but let me see if i can shed some light.... lol... day one was beginning or contracts and who you really represented, as well as your dirt list... etc... then at night you had writing assignments (this was every night)... day 2 was partner day trust crap.hiking throught the woods.. and then epitaphs (or what people would say bout you if you were to die) and then laying in a coffin, day 3 was partnering up with the person you hated most, and seeing through other people's eyes how they saw you.... the night time was the raft and other excersises... day 4 was same partners and finding things for a party... and then the party which was a charactor that was suppose to be the most like our actions.... which is where whinnie the pooh, and leah, and skywalker and everything comes from... for me it was oz... and when you hit your charactor, perfectly, then they would lift you through the room as they did after contracts.  Day 5 was graduating the summit, where you were given your contract, and then the key to your life... etc....

oh... and i wrote this... joe keuter pg-56 rma, 9june 96 graduation cedu."


Thanks, Joe.  It's Adam Best (PG 61, RMA).  I don't know if you remember me or not.  We got along well at times and butted heads at times also.  Hope all is well with you.

I really am curious (mostly for my play) on what music was played, what kind of signs decorated the room, about the agreements, etc...  I also want to hear more costume party stories.  Just bizarre...

And we did pretty well for ourselves. In fact, I'm pretty confident I could handle you on the field any day.



Anyways man I'm tired of explaining this to you, so uh, eat a dick fairy. [ This Message was edited by: dniceo7 on 2005-11-03 14:42 ]"


He's right on.  In 1995-96 I played basketball for Coach Scott Riggenbach and played in roughly 15 games including 2 3-game tournaments.  I have a fucking all-tournament team trophy from a tourney in Furney, B.C. that I am looking at right now.  It was real, it really happened.  Sure we didn't play a full schedule and played several J.V. teams (including Bonner's Ferry), but we also played Varsity (several games and the two tournaments--Creston and Furney).

Also, I played soccer as well.  We had quite a few games.  I did cross country.  We went to a half-dozen meets.  There were sports teams there. Sure, we took a backseat to the E.G., but we competed against real high schools and usually faired pretty well.  We actually lost in the championship game of the Funrey Tournament in Winter 1996, which means we got second place.

RMA was always pretty cool about allowing me to do these things.  We left campus every Sunday morning to have actual practice at a gym in Bonner's too.  Sports were taken fairly serious by those of us who played them there (and afterwards).

I was at RMA from September 1994-July 1996. I was in Peer Group 61 and on Team Vision.  Doing wonderful now.  I have heard some horror stories about some people, but most of the people that I hear about from that era are doing pretty well.

Tegretol and prozac and something else was what I was on.  They should of called it the "zombie mix" because I was basically falling asleep all the fucking time.  I was fine when I was just on tegretol, but for awhile they way they had overmedicated me was ridiculous.  I was like the walking dead.  Couldn't keep my eyes open in raps.

If you think the anti-depressants put weight on people, what about all that fatty bread they served.  I can't put weight on if my life depended on it, but most people plumped up very quickly after arriving at RMA.  Especially girls.  That's why every time a hot new girl arrived guys would just go ballistic.

I'm looking for people that were in Peer Group 61 and on Team Vision with me during the mid-nineties.  Just wondering how everybody is doing, that's all.

"He's baaaaaaacckk!"

I don't know if it's captain brainwashed or captain sarcasm, but something is going on with this dude.

When I supported in the Truth they would occasionally let us in the break room to grab snacks and get coffee, and if they wanted to talk to us.  We also were allowed to take a few breaks and leave (Walden?) for a few.  But we definitely had to sit in a plastic chair and share about ourselves.

Did people soft-seat in The Summit?  I remember people doing soft-seating at RMA every so often.  Most were pricks, but one or two of them were cool.  I remember thinking that this one girl--I won't mention ex-student's names--must be the biggest kiss ass on God's green earth.
