    The Baylor lifetime fitness class, Backpacking and camping, takes a weekend camping trip at the end of each semester for students to use the skills they have been learning in the classroom. This year’s trip took the class to Lake Georgetown near Austin. | Photos by Richard Hirst, Photo Editor
    The entire class surrounds a campfire that they made to tell jokes and stories and to listen to David Pajela play a ukulele and sing the FUN song from the cartoon Sponge Bob. | Photos by Richard Hirst, Photo Editor
    Each person carried a roughly 25 pound backpack that carried everything they would need for the trip. Items include warm clothes, tent, cooking materials, food, flashlight and water. |Photos by Richard Hirst, Photo Editor
