Ready For The Rapids?By Tresa Erickson
For some people, nothing satisfies the thirst foradventure better than a trip down some whitewaterrapids. If you are among them or would like to be, hereare some questions to consider before planning yourtrip.How experienced are you?
Whitewater rivers are classified according to theirlevel of difficulty. Class I and II rivers generally featuresmall rapids and clear passageways, making themsuitable for beginners. Class III rivers feature larger
rapids and narrower passageways in some areas,making them more suitable for rafters with experience.Class IV and V rivers feature large rapids in longstretches with many obstacles, making them moresuitable for advanced rafters. Class VI rivers are toodangerous to run. What type of river would work bestfor your skill level?Whos going with you?
If you intend on going on the trip alone, you canskip this question. If you intend to go with others, youwill need to find out what their skill level is. Generally,you should look for a trip that caters to the lowest skilllevel in your group, unless of course, you intend to splitup. Whatever you do, dont fudge on participants skilllevels. Whitewater rapids are risky enough, without youmixing in a couple of beginners on a trip on a Class IVriver.When can you go?
Offered across the nation and all over the world,
whitewater rafting trips are not just for the summer.You can go in the spring, the fall and even in the winter,if you live in the right area or are willing to travel. Youmight even save a little if youre willing to go on a tripduring the off-season.How long do you intend to be gone?
Whitewater rafting trips can run from anafternoon to several days. Because of the staminarequired for rougher waters, short trips work best forgroups with various skill levels and ages. Experiencedrafters will have the experience and endurancenecessary for longer trips.How much do you intend to spend?
Whitewater rafting trips vary in cost according toseason, amenities and other factors. Determine howmuch you can afford to spend and look for a trip within
that price range,keeping in mindthat you willneed to pay fortransportat ioncosts to andfrom.
Once youhave answeredthese questions,you can start
looking for a good whitewater rafting trip. Numerousare available on rivers across the United States andabroad. Some include more amenities than others. Lookfor one from a reputable outfitter that suits the needs ofeveryone involved. Get all of the details in writing andbook your trip well in advance to ensure a spot in theadventure of a lifetime.

Travel Tips For a Safe andSuccessful Road Trip
A good road trip can be the ultimate spring orsummer experience. With the open road ahead, lifestroubles seem to melt and theres just the oneness of thedriver and the road.
For a road trip to be successful, its not just amatter of taking to the road and putting the pedal tothe metal. There are a host of considerations to make,which can ensure safety and peace of mind whenbeginning your excursion. The hot sun that can bakethe roadway -- and your body -- can also take its toll onyour car, contributing to breakdowns. And there areother factors to be aware of.
Maintenance should never be overlooked when itcomes to prepping for a road trip. At the least, TheNational Highway Traffic Safety Administrationrecommends that drivers have their tires, battery, belts,fluids, and air conditioner checked by a qualifiedmechanic prior to starting any long trip. But the listdoes not stop there. There are many other precautionsto heed before taking to the road.
* Be sure to have all necessary documents onhand. Nothing can stall a road trip faster than gettingpulled over by a police officer and being without yourlicense, registration and proof of insurance. These arerequired documents to operate a vehicle, and itsdefinitely worth a second check in your wallet and glovecompartment to be sure they are where they should be.
* Get an oil change. Driving long intervals can betaxing on a car engine, as can the start-and-stopsassociated with getting stuck in road trip traffic. Doyourself and your car a favor by getting an oil change to
ensure there will be proper lubrication of the engineand that thick, old motor oil wont contribute to abreakdown.
* Update your GPS. If you will be using a GPSdevice as your primary tool for navigation, update thedevices maps before departure. Roadways are alwaysbeing changed, and without downloading the properupdates, you could end up driving in circles instead ofmoving on to your destination. In addition, many GPSmodels come equipped with pinpointing points ofinterest, or POI, such as restaurants, tourist areas,hotels, and rest stops, which should be update beforebeginning the trip. Follow the guidelines spelled out inthe owners manual that comes with your GPS unit.Consumer Reports also advises knowing the localordinances regarding GPS use. For example, awindshield-mounted unit is not allowed while driving inMinnesota.
* Plan who will drive when. A long road trip -- one
that will be done primarily in one day -- couldnecessitate splitting up the trip between two or moredrivers. Not only does this banish boredom, it alsoreduces the risk of driver fatigue. NHTSA estimatesthat approximately 100,000 police-reported crashes inthe United States each year involve drowsiness and/orfatigue.
* Protect your eyes. The weather and the positionof the sun could change depending on where you aredriving. If you wear glasses or contacts for driving, besure you have them with you. Keep a few pairs ofsunglasses in your car to shield your eyes from sunglare. If the sun proves problematic, pull over for a littlewhile or try an alternate route that prevents oncomingsun on the windshield. While you are packingsunglasses, also be sure to bring along -- and wear --sunscreen, as the suns rays can be magnified throughthe window glass.
* Bring along refreshments. Frequent stops for
bathroom breaks and simply to stretch your legs areadviseable, but limit rest-stop fare whenever possible.Not only do these foods tend to be unhealthy, they areoften expensive. Keep your road trip budget down bypacking healthy food and drinks that you can enjoy onthe go.
* Keep on top of your cars fuel level. Play it safewhen gassing up the car. On rural roads or stretches ofcountry with which you are unfamiliar, you never knowhow far away filling stations might be from oneanother. That means you should take the opportunity totop off the gas tank whenever you get the chance. Thisway you always will be confident you have enough gasto get to the next station. Dont risk coasting into yourdestination on fumes, unless you want to arrive at your
destination hitched to a tow truck.* Be wary of hitchhikers. Although hitchhikers are
few and far between nowadays, there is still thepossibility of coming across someone thumbing for aride on the side of the road. Do not pick up a strangerwho is hitchhiking, no matter how reputable the personmay seem. If you come across someone who has brokendown, offer to call for help instead of allowing theperson into the car.
* Use the bathroom at every stop. You never knowhow few and far between restrooms will be. Unless theidea of a road-side pit stop is high on your list of roadtrip excitement, play it safe and use the restroomwhenever stopping. Few things can make a stretch ofroad seem more interminable than the pressure of a fullbladder.
* Plan for sightseeing. Part of the enjoyment of aroad trip is to actually take the scenic route and enjoyroads which you may have never traveled before. This isnot a race and no awards will be given out at the endfor making good time. Therefore, slow down and enjoythe scenery. Isnt that why youre driving, after all?
Road trips seem to be an essential part of the
spring and summer season. They can be all the morefun and safe when you heed a few road trip rules of theroad.
On road trips, bring along a friend so that you can sharedriving responsibilities and fend off fatigue.

Welcome ToConey Island
By Tresa Erickson
Carnivals come and go,taking the fun with themfrom one town to another.In Coney Island, however,
just the reverse seems tobe true. There, the carnivalatmosphere remainsintact, with delectablesights and sounds offeredfor much of the year.
A peninsula insouthernmost Brooklyn,Coney Island was once a
major resort area packedwith amusement. It allstarted in the 1860s withthe establishment of railand steamboat lines, whichcreated an avenue forhotels, horse races,amusement parks andother forms ofentertainment in additionto the beach.
In 1876, Charles Looffbuilt the first carousel inConey Island, offeringrides for five cents each.Between 1880 and WorldWar II, several amusementparks were developed inthe area, including LunaPark, Dreamland and
Steeplechase Park. Withthe electrification of steamrails in the 1890s, the areabecame the prime spot forpeople to escape for a littlefun for the day.
Today, few amusementparks exist at ConeyIsland. The area, however,continues to entertain,with many arcades, shopsand food vendors. There isalso a sideshow, anaquarium and a museum,as well as some rides.These include the WonderWheel Ferris wheel, the
Cyclone roller coaster, theB&B Carousell and the
bumper cars. The area alsohosts a mermaid parade, afilm festival and BrooklynCyclones minor leaguebaseball games inKeySpan Park.
Coney Island is onecontinuous carnival of fun.Should you ever get thechance to visit, dont missout!

Fun In The SunBy Tresa Erickson
Temperatures aresoaring, and to escape theheat, everyone has beencooped up inside for whatseems like days on end.The kids have grown tiredof TV and video games andare starting to pick at eachother. Time to cool thingsoff with some wet and wildfun in the sun. Have yourkids invite some friendsover, gather everyone
together in the backyardand play these games.Catch It
For this game, you willneed several waterballoons and a milk jug foreach player. Remove thetop half of the milk jugs tomake catchers and handone to each player. Thenmove someplace high, suchas on a deck, and toss thewater balloons as fast asyou can for players tocatch. The player thatcatches the most wins.
Dont Spill ItFor this game, you will
need two empty 20-ouncesoda bottles, two largebuckets of water and twosmall paper cups. Divideplayers into two teams anddesignate the race course.Set a bucket of water atthe start line for each teamand appoint a person fromeach team to serve as thebottle holder and lie downat the end of the racecourse with the emptybottle on their chest. Thengive each team a paper
cup, and upon your signal,instruct them to fill thecup, race down to thebottle holder, dump thewater from the cup into thebottle, and race back to thestart line, spilling as littlewater as possible along theway. The team with themost water in the bottleafter everyone has had achance to run wins.Fill Er Up
For this game, you willneed two empty paint cansand four large buckets.Divide players into twoteams and designate therace course. Fill a bucketwith water for each teamand set it at the start line.Set the remaining bucketsat the opposite end of thecourse. Upon your signal,instruct the teams to fillthe paint can with water,race it to the emptybucket, dump the waterinto the bucket and raceback, spilling as little aspossible along the way. Thefirst team to fill theirbucket wins.
Jump and SplashFor this game, you will
need a jump rope and apaper cup filled with waterfor each player. Designatetwo people to turn the
jump rope. Then have eachplayer jump rope for twominutes with cup in hand,trying not to spill anywater. The player with themost water in their cupafter everyone has had aturn wins.Shoot the ShavingCream
For this game, you willneed several cans of
shaving cream and a watergun for each player. Fillthe guns with water andpass them out. Applyshaving cream toeveryones torso, and uponyour signal, have them tryto shoot off the shavingcream from each otherwith their water guns. Theplayer with the mostshaving cream remainingwhen time is called wins.Spill the Beans
For this game, you willneed some beans and apaper cup and a water gunfor each player. Divideplayers into pairs and have
them stand six feet apart.Then give one player ineach pair a cup withseveral beans in thebottom and the otherplayer a water gun filledwith water. Upon yoursignal, have the playerswith the water gun try tofill their partners cup withwater and make the beansfloat out. The first pair tosucceed wins.Toss the Water Balloon
For this game, you willneed several waterballoons and a bucket.Have players line up andset a bucket 10 feet in
front of them. Then giveeach player a chance totoss 10 water balloons intothe bucket. The player thattosses the most into thebucket wins.
Almost any backyardgame favorite can beconverted into a watergame. Kids like to playtag? Give the player whosIt a water gun to tagplayers with. Cant thinkof a way to add in somewater fun? No problem.Turn on the sprinklers andplay the game under them.The more water involved,the wetter everyone will
get and the more fun theywill have.
Where It AllBegan
By Tresa EricksonToday there are
hundreds of indoor water
parks across the country.Open year-round, theparks attract visitors farand wide. Features varyfrom one park to anotherbut often include waterslides, lazy river rides andkiddie pools. Indoor waterparks are relatively new tothe United States. Up untilthe mid-1990s, waterparks were set outdoors.That all changed with theestablishment of oneindoors at the Polynesian
Hotel in Wisconsin Dells in1994.
The first indoor waterpark in the world was builtat the West EdmontonMall in Edmonton,
Alberta, Canada, in 1985.The 200,000-square-footWorld Waterpark was asuccess. During that time,outdoor water parks beganspringing up all over thecity of Wisconsin Dells.While the parks brought inmore business, it was onlytemporary, as temper-atures dropped off fairlyquickly in the fall and theparks were closed.
Wanting to beef upbusiness during the off-season when the weatherwas not so great, theowners of the PolynesianHotel built an indoor waterpark. The park was a hit,and by 1995, it waspacking in the people.Other hotels in the areafollowed suit, and today,the city boasts five majorwater park resorts andseveral indoor and outdoorwater parks, earning it thetitle of Waterpark Capitalof the World.
Indoor water parks arenow features in
communities across thecountry. They make a greatplace to go no matter whatthe weather is like outside.For ski resorts, indoorwater parks provide greatentertainment for old andyoung alike during theirtimes off the slopes.

discarded before they are
full extinguished, theycould easily spark a fire.Many a garbage can, andconsiderably more, hasbeen lost to briquettes thatwere discarded before theywere fully extinguished. Asa safety measure, pourwater over briquettes andnever discard anybriquettes that are still hot.
* Never move the grillindoors. If an unexpectedsummer rain storm arriveson the night of the party,the grill should stayoutside while the guestsmove indoors. A grill,whether its propane or
charcoal, should never beused indoors because of therisk of fire and carbonmonoxide poisoning.
* Keep kids and petsclear. Its easy for kids andpets to suffer burns whenaround the grill. Kidsmight not be tall enough tosee whats on the grill and,to make up for that, willgrab the grill with theirbare hands and pushthemselves up. This isalmost certain to lead toburns. Pets dont know anybetter and are likely to getburned or even tip the grillover if theyre allowed near
it.* Dont be liberal with
the lighter fluid. Whengrilling on a charcoal grill,its not always easy to getthe fire started. As a result,many people look to lighterfluid to help speed theprocess along. While thiscan work, its important tonote that not much lighterfluid is necessary, and fluidshould never be appliedafter the coals have lit.
UnderThe Stars
By Tresa EricksonDid you ever camp out
in your backyard as a kid?Had a good time, didntyou? Backyard campoutsmake great outdoor fun forkids and adults alike.Theres nothing likechasing fireflies, tellingstories and sleeping underthe stars in your ownbackyard with all of theconveniences of home juststeps away. Now that yourkids are a little older, youd

a friend and preparing forthe experience ade-quately.Set up all of the equipmentahead of time, create asavory menu and plan forsome awesome games.
Safety FirstBy Tresa Erickson
Personal watercraftrun the gamut and makefor great fun on the water.They can be dangerous,however, if not cared for
and used appropriately.Here are some basic safetytips to ensure a safe timefor one and all.Check all craft
There is nothing riskierthan getting into the waterwith a faulty watercraft.
You do not want to getstranded. Check yourwatercraft before you leaveshore and make anyrepairs necessary to ensuresmooth operation.Have the proper safetydevices
Ordinances should be inplace regarding the safetyequipment you should have
onboard your personalwatercraft. Make sure youhave everything requiredand it is in good condition.Wear a lifejacket
It doesnt matter howgreat of a swimmer youare, accidents happen. Youcould stumble, hit yourhead and fall overboard. Beprepared for suchemergencies by wearing alifejacket. Not any oldlifejacket will do. Wear oneapproved by the U.S. CoastGuard, and before headingout, make sure it is in goodcondition and fits youproperly.
Choose the right
operatorIf you do not intend to
operate the personalwatercraft, choose someonewho can. You need someonefamiliar with the machineand old enough to legallyoperate it. Dont fudge onthe age requirements. Theyare in place to ensure yoursafety.Use the engine stoplanyard
Attach it to your wristor lifejacket and keep itthere. If your watercraftdoes not have an enginestop lanyard, familiarizeyourself with the proper
reboarding procedures.Be on the alert
Operators as well asriders should always be onthe alert for swimmers,crafts and other obstaclesin the water. Check allaround you when on thepersonal watercraft andavoid getting too close toanything. Operate the craftwith care, be careful of thewake you create and do notspeed.Never drink and driveDrinking and driving donot mix, on land or onwater. Leave the alcohol onshore, even if you do not
intend to operate thepersonal watercraft. Onetoo many drinks couldcause an accidentalstumble into the water andimpede recovery efforts.
With watercraft comesa sense of responsibility.Hold up your end, and ifyou have purchased apersonal watercraft or areplanning to operate one forthe first time, check aroundand see if any trainingcourses are offered. If so,take one. The moreknowledgeable andprepared you are, the morelikely you are to have a
good time.
like to give them the
pleasure of camping out inyour backyard. Here aresome tips.
Start by getting out allof your camping gear. Youcan use almost everything,and in doing so, you willgive your kids an idea ofwhat a real campout wouldbe like. You will definitelywant to pitch a tent for thelittle ones and use sleepingbags. Try to do this a weekahead of time to air out thetent and give your kids thechance to check it out.
If permitted, you maywant to make a campfire,or at the very least, build a
pretend campfire out ofsticks and crumpled tissuepaper. This will provide theopportunity for you todiscuss fire safety withyour kids and preparethem for a real campfirelater.
To make the experienceeven more authentic, youmight want to set up a CDplayer somewhere and playa CD of nature sounds. Getyour kids familiar with thesounds of nature from thechirp of crickets to leavesrustling in the wind.
No campout would becomplete without good food.
Make a feast in yourkitchen and bring itoutdoors, or roast some hotdogs and marshmallows onthe campfire or grill.
Top off your nightoutdoors with some games.Chase down some bugs andidentify them. Take anature hike, tell storiesaround the campfire or singsome camp songs. Snuggleup in your sleeping bags,gaze at the stars andidentify all of theconstellations you see.
Backyard campouts areintended to be fun. Notsure your kids will have
fun? Ensure they do by
Grilling over an open flameis a popular warm weathertradition, but one that also
carries risks.
Few summer tradi-tions are as beloved as thebackyard barbecue. Typi-cally laid back get-togethers with family andfriends, backyard barbe-cues are synonymous withwarm weather and therelaxed atmosphere thatsuch weather promotes.
But even the bestbackyard barbecue comeswith some level of risk.Cooking over an open flamewill never be risk-free, but
there are steps barbecueenthusiasts can take tomake their next summersoiree that much safer.
* Check for leaks. Dueto their ease of use andconvenience, propane grillshave grown in popularityover the years. However,proponents of propanegrills should inspect thepropane tank as well as itshoses for leaks, cracks andcorrosion. Any of thoseproblems has the potentialto be very dangerous, soaddress any issues beforeguests arrive. If guests are
on their way already,simply visit the localhardware store andpurchase a new tank orreplace the damaged one. Ifthe hoses are damaged, buya charcoal grill to fill-in forthe propane grill duringthe party. Charcoal grillsare much less expensivethan propane grills, and itmight be a good idea forhouseholds that frequentlyhost guests during grillingseason to have a backupgrill anyway.
* Make the grill area anonsmoking section. Someguests will want to smoke,and since the partysoutdoors, this shouldnt bean issue. However, protectthe food and reduce therisk of injury by insistingthe area surrounding thegrill is a nonsmokingsection.
* Dress in tighter
clothing. The partysgrillmaster should not wearloose clothing. Loose-fittingclothing, particu-larly longsleeves, can dip into thegrill and potentially catchon fire. Avoid this risk bywearing tighter clothingthat doesnt hang off thebody.
* Be certain allbriquettes are extinguish-ed. For those who prefer acharcoal grill, once thecooking has been completedbe careful to extinguish allbriquettes. If briquettes are

When you havecompleted the packing,dont forget the final touch-a card or note from you.Even if your child hasattended camp dozens oftimes before, they will stillappreciate knowing thatyou care. Wish them well
at camp and let them knowhow much you will missthem. They may be milesaway, but they will alwaysfeel close to home with justa few words from you!

Simple Ways toEase the Ouch
Sunblock -- and itsadequate reapplication -- isone of the single mosteffective ways to preventsunburn and a host of sun-related maladies. Despitethe warnings of skincancer and ailmentsrelated to the sun, peoplesuccumb to sunburn year
after year. The results canbe quite painful.According to the
Centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention,getting sunburned evenonce can make a personmore likely to get skincancer. Though it can bethat simple to increase riskfor skin cancer, theresactually quite a lot goingon behind the scenes whena person gets a sunburn.The very outer layer of theepidermis, or the outside-most skin, is made up ofdead skin cells.

* Cool water baths andbrief showers can reducethe temperature of theskin.
* Aloe gels often sootheand cool. It is believed thataloe has anti-inflammatoryproperties.
* Some people say thatwhite vinegar can reducepain and inflammationwhen sprayed on theaffected area or used in
compresses.* Sunburned skin is
often dry and chapped. Amoisturizer, such as cocoabutter, can help minimizeirritation.
* Its important toremain hydrated becausedamaged skin may not beas effective in lockingmoisture inside. Plus, thebody needs food and waterto fuel the repair ofsunburned skin.
The best remedy forsunburn is to avoid it at allcosts. Wearing sunblock, awide-brimmed hat, UV-
them or your child. Keeptabs on what your child issetting out to ensure itcomplies with the list butleave the actual choosingto them. Remind them thatcamp can be rugged andthen let them decidewhether they want to packtheir gray tennis shoes ortheir black ones. It wontmatter as long as the shoesare in good condition, fitright and provide amplesupport.
Should your child makea questionable choice atany point, let them know
gently. Explain to themthat bringing theirexpensive camera mightnot be in their best interestas it could wind up missingor broken. Camp can be abusy place, and thepotential for items to getlost, stolen or damaged ishigh. It is not a place forvaluables. Encourage yourchild to leave their digitalcamera at home and take adisposable camera instead.
Should your childrequire medication, get intouch with campadministrators and letthem know. Most camps
have procedures in placeregarding the admini-stration of medication tocampers. Find out whatthey are and make sureyou follow them.
Once you have checkedoff everything from thelist, you will need to labelit. This is importantshould something turn uplost later. If your childaccidentally leaves theirbeach towel at the pool andsomeone else finds it, theywill know whom to returnit to if it is labeled. Grab apermanent marker andlabel everything your child
is taking to camp, from thetag on their baseball cap tothe soles of their tennisshoes. Dont forget aboutthe carrying case as well.
You will need somethingto pack every-thing into.This could range from asmall totebag to a largebackpack to a suitcase ortrunk. Whatever you andyour child choose, makesure it is sturdy and ingood condition-the hardier,the better as it will beexposed to a ruggedenvironment. As with thecontents, do not chooseanything valuable. LeaveGrandmas antique trunkin the foyer where itbelongs and pull out thatold beat-up suitcasestashed in your closet.
When you are ready tobegin packing, grab someplastic bags and use themas needed to help yourchild stay organized. Bagup their bathroomsupplies, for example. Thatway, they can take the bag
protection clothing, andsunglasses and avoidingthe sun during peak hoursare ways to remaincomfortable and healthy.
All PackedBy Tresa Erickson
Summer is finally here,and before long, kidseverywhere will be headedoff to camp. Whether a daycamp or overnight camp,your kid will need to bringsome items with them. Forthe best results, youshould do the packingtogether. That way, yourchild will feel moreinvolved and morecomfortable at camp withthe items of their choice.
Overnight campsusually involve moreextensive packing than daycamps. Camp admini-strators should provide youwith a list of the itemsyour child will needbeforehand. If they dont,ask for it and then follow itto the letter. If the list saysyour child will need tennisshoes, insist they pack apair of tennis shoes, nottheir favorite sandals.There is a reason behindeverything on the list-tennis shoes, for example,may provide more pro-tection over the campsitesrocky terrain than sandals.Explain this to your childand make sure they complywith the list.
Camp administratorshave run the camp timeand time again and knowexactly what campers needto bring for the bestexperience. Dont usurp
below them are living skincells that can be damagedwhen ultraviolet light fromthe sun penetrates theseliving cells and eventuallykills them off. Once thebody senses the dead cells,the immune systemsprings into action. Whiteblood cells are sent to thearea to repair damage,which involves increasedblood flow. This blood flow
makes the skin red andwarm. Furthermore, thedamaged skin cells sendout chemical messengersthat activate painreceptors. This is whysunburned skin is red,warm and painful.
There are differentremedies for alleviatingthe pain associated withsunburn. While there aresome over-the-counteranalgesics that willtemporarily numb pain,some of the besttreatments are simple andnatural.

Step Right UpBy Tresa Erickson
People look forward to the return of them everyyear, not just for the games and rides, but for the corndogs, cotton candy, elephant ears, shakeups and more.Theyre carnivals, and for years, carnies, or the peoplewho ran them, spoke a language all of their own.
The word carny is thought to have developedsometime around 1931as a term for a carnivalemployee. Although it is no longer the case today,carnies once spoke a language all of their own, allowingthem to engage with each other in secret as they wentabout their jobs.
Interested in learning some carny talk? Here is abrief list of terms and their meanings. Bone yard, place where carnies stay when they are
not working Circus jump, the act of tearing down, driving to,
setting up and working a carnival the next day Donniker, the bathroom Greenies, new but temporary help The Kitty, funds for supplies for carnival employees Larry, defective Lot, the site of carnival rides and booths; also called
the Midway Plush, stuffed animal prizes Ride jock, ride operators Rousty or roustabout, an employee who sets up rides
and pitches concessions Slough, to tear down a booth Spinning Jenny, a carousel Spring, to open the carnival Stock, game prizes
Sugar snack, aconcession stand
Carnies had awhole vocabulary todescribe the goings-onat their booths. In orderto lure passers-by totheir booths, or joints asthey were called, agentswould call out to them.If that didnt work, they might set up a bally or a freeperformance. They might also employ a shill, that is,another carnival employee who would show how easy itwas to win the game or go around boasting about howeasily they had won the game and carry a big plush asproof.
Generally, there were two types of players:inexperienced marks, or mooches, who would spend
every cent they had to win a game and experiencedsharpies who could spot a scam from a mile and knewhow to win a game. Agents liked marks the best andwould indicate their status to other agents with achalky pat on the shoulder. They might also peek thepoke or check out how much money the mark wascarrying in their wallet. Butchers would try to takeevery penny from the mark, confusing them oftenduring the game and forcing them to pay up at everyopportunity.
Getting passers-by to play the game was half thebattle. Ensuring they didnt win was the other. Someagents would gaff their joint, or fix it so there wouldnever be a winner. They might set up an Ikey Heyman,for example, a wheel of fortune they could brake insecret. Smart agents would set up a two-way joint thatcould be easily converted from unwinnable to winnableshould a police officer walk by. Other agents mightallow a player to win, only to refuse them a prize and
present them with an alibi, some unforeseen rule thatthey had broken, like crossing the foul line. Someagents would simply burn the lot, that is, cheat theplayer outright under the assumption they would neversee the player again.
Some joints were straight and played by the rules.However, with these, the prizes were usually less thandesirable. Straight stores, for example, allowed for awinner every time, but presented winners with slum forprizes. These small, cheap prizes cost players a prettypenny in tickets to play the game.
Agents like to make money and had their ownterms for the scratch, or tip, they made. An ace was $1,a fin $5, a sawbuck $10, a double $20, a half-yard $50, ayard or a C-note $100, and a large or a K $1,000.
