GENTLY DOWN THE STREAM: It's Clear Lake, of course, and not a stream at all, but some of the "merrily, merrily" moments for girls at the YWCA's Camp Takona are brought about by aqua-tours of the placid waters - particularly when someone else is doing the oaring. Legend has it that the name Takona was given to the area by a wandering band of Indians who decided to use the first, middle, and last words of their phrase "ta-wa-si-ko-ka-ta-nah" - meaning "Friends amidst the sloping hills."
