    High school students address the question of 'What to do in North Dakota on a Saturday night?'    
       
   

BISMARCK TRIBUNE -- February 10, 2003 -- You live in North Dakota. You are in high school. It's Saturday night. You call your friends. "What should we do?"

High school seniors Stef Graner and Brandy Thompson, from Minot and Dickinson, respectively, are among 1,200 teens in Bismarck for the annual meeting of the North Dakota Association of Student Councils. At a Monday session they challenged kids to brainstorm "things to do on a Saturday night in North Dakota."

Amanda Cashman of Bismarck received the afternoon's standing ovation for her demonstration of " stacking", "which has moved me deeply and changed my life," she said.

When the audience demanded a demonstration, she stacked and unstacked with blazing speed, although short of 8.22 seconds - apparently the stacking record. "Don't do drugs", she said, "Stack!"

It starts with your imagination, Stef said, "Fun totally comes down to what you put into it"
