Grape Press I figured I'd check out the equipment before the event actually began. |
Moving the Press Not the easiest item to get out the door... |
Classroom A packed classroom is a rare thing to see... |
Students out the Door ...let alone after hours! |
|
|
|

|
Nametags Students were fighting for nametags! Really! |
Art's Camera Art is the official advisor of Hort Club right now. |
Dad in Line Waiting to get out the door and begin. |
Mom and Mark Mark, one of Dad's grad students, had recently broken his arm; Mom was finding out how. (Softball.) |

Wading Pools Dad looks on as the stomping begins. |
Bucket O'Grapes These are for juicing, not stomping. |
Stomping Pool One group of kids stomping away... |
Stomping Pool, II ...and another one. Admittedly, one shot is much like the others. |
|
|

|
Stomping Closeup It's a very odd feeling. |
Stomping Line Squishy and sticky and kinda cold... |
Line for Stomping Definitely worth trying at least once. |
Lots of Kids And apparently about 100 kids agreed with me! |
|

|
Posing and Stomping Eventually, they started posing for the shotsm |
More Posing Of course, they all thought I was working for the DI. |
Art on the Roof He definitely found the best place for pictures. |
Art and Another Kid Two! Two people on the roof! Aah-aah-aah! |

Dad and David Riecks David is the department photographer, and a generally nice guy. |
More Stomping Closeups I can't decide which I like better. Sorry. |
Less Kids Per Pool Some of the kids have headed over to check out the juicing instead. |
Dad He really loves this kind of thing. He's so happy with the students... |
|

Dad in a Circle You can kinda see him there in the middle. |
Mom in the Middle Mom tried to stay out of the whole thing, but still keep things moving and take a few pictures. |
Pouring the Grapes At least you can see the number of varieties! |
Crushing in Action The grapes are in, and the juice comes out. |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Retrieving the Juice Ohe of the Hort Clubbers fills a pitcher with the juice. |
Lots of Juice That's a big delta-juice! |
Watching the Juicer Plenty of kids are watching to see the process (and wait to try the juice.) |
The Real Show Begins While the juicing continues, I decided to come check out a few kids who were interested in posing... |

Happy Trio Their names were Jessie, Stevie, and Robbie, and... |
More Stomping ...hey Jessie, be careful, you're gonna trip! |
Falling Down Jesse trips! |
Fallen Jessie Oh, that's gotta hurt. |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Wallowing Hmmph. |
Getting Back Up Well, let's see that damage... |
Splattered Back Ooh, that doesn't look good. |
Robbie's Hit! He doesn't look that good either. |
|
|
|
|

|
Food Fight! And so the grapes began a-flyin'! |
Messy Jessie She looks happy, and bloody, and silly... |
Stevie and Jessie Stand Together The last two standing |
Stevie's Front So sticky... |
|
|
|
|
||||
|
Stevie's Back Yes, it's worse on his back. |
Jessie's Front I didn't get her fin |
Innocent Bystanders So clean and pure... |
Starting to Clean Up I like the hoorified look. |
|
|
|
|

|
Battle Damage The final state of their clothes. |
Jessie Hoses Off Trying to get some of the worst off... |
Stevie Hoses Off ...and some off of Stevie too. |
Hosing Back And the war continues. Will it never end? |

Handing out Juice I swear, I didn't save this picture just because of the girl's shirt. |
Finishing Up with the Pools One last round of stomping, before we clean up and go home. |
Dad and Mallory Stomp Dad had already been in, but he decided to go one more time. |
Messy Father Luckily, Dad brought towels... |
|
|
|

|
Add a Duax I think that was a Duax brother, anyway. (Nope; he was elsewhere.) |
Final Pictures David Riecks continues to get shots of the kids in the pool. |
Dave in the Pool Dad talked him into coming in, with his camera. I actually got some better shots of him, but they were with his camera... |
