Winter Spirit Week and Dance

Well, another exciting high school adventure is now history. Winter Spirit Week is behind us and the first with no snow in a long time. Have to make due with the spring like weather.

Pep Fest was fun and the various dancing and dodging skills of students were unveiled. Lots of screaming and yelling. Only one break in the fun spirit by a few malcontents at the end of the fine event. Some people continue to demonstrate their immaturity.

The dance was great fun at the top of the IDS building. Pack with over 650 students and a great number of supportive parents the dance was fine and a great view over the city.

The fashion show was interesting - as always. Generally a bit on the dressed up side - fancier than normal. The basic female attire was a tube dress. You know those elastic one-yard wide pieces of material. Way tight and tiny. So for the female members of the party, the evening was spent pulling up and down.

The major male attire was dressy. Not many coats - was hot - but ties and dress shirts and pants. Guys wear comfortable show, Women wear heals too tall and then bare feet once they get in the door.

The evening was exciting and filled with jumping and dancing and moving about. By the end of the evening the windows were steamed and sweaty was the general description of people. Probably too much sugar with the dessert tables but they were attractive.

Fun finish to a good week sponsered, planned and delivered by Student Council.
