·Slip Slide Into F1JIL by Jackie Skaluba LBJ staff writer The lack of diversion for young adults in Alpena has been duly noted by the managers of Slip's Lounge. After seeing the activities available in other college towns, partner Andy Meldrum has established a facility for the under 21 crowd, looking for solutions on their behalf. The Lounge sponsors dances for the underage group and currently Thursday night is college night, open to 18 + year olds. Live entertainment is provided by Matt Southwell's band, "Everything Kills". So far, the Lounge has encountered very few of the problems predicted by the nay-sayers. What problems do they anticipate from the underage crowd? It's not a babysitting service. "If 18-year-olds cannot . be responsible enough to not drink ... they're eut the door." Slip's will provide a place to get together. with friends, entertainment, but no alcohol. Meldrum thinks that it's pointless to debate the drinking age question. "Hey, it's the law, period." He encourages college students to "come on in and be with your friends or "dance the night away", but if you drink, you're showing me that you're not as responsible as you say you are." Right now, management . is · contemplating a number of possibilities to see how they can best meet the needs of the college crowd and are open to suggestions on what will eventually be most feasible. Slip's has a big-screen TV for viewing Monday night football, "or perhaps videos of ACC games or events", Meldrum wonders aloud. Management is . encouraged by the response received thus far. Meldrum gives all the credit to the kids; they've conducted themselves like adults "which is what they are, right?" The thing that I t!iought I'd miss the most about not going away to college, was all the night clubs that big college towns have. A group of friends and I went to Slip's College Night and had a load of fun. We danced to the music of a great band, played pool and enjoyed socializing with fellow classmates. It's nice to see some segment of · the Alpena · business community providing something '.for our age group. Perhaps I won't miss this' part of college life at all! Lisa.
