No!” cried a joyful queen. Through cheers from the crowd and good wishes from their court, Todd Oliver and Kristen Ingeman the 1985-86 King and Queen stepped up to receive their honors. The week of October 14th-18th had been a hectic one for everyone, especially the court; “but so much fun, too” recalled Kirsten Leavitt. Throughout the week, AHS’s very own royalty dressed Hawaiian, sporty, crazy and as twins. There were competitions held all week. One day, the guys donned the girls frocks (and vice versa); there was an egg toss, a treasure hunt, and a trash pickup contest. The “‘soberest” event was the “Baby I Love You, But I Just Can’t Smile’ Contest. Members of the court attempted to make contestants laugh. The contests. were not restricted to the court. “One day Kristen just pulled me off the grass because I was wearing an I-Zod shirt which was part of her treasure hunt. It was really funny,” giggled Susie Brown. The week ended with the annual homecoming football game. It proved to be a crushing defeat for our Richmond opponents. Liz Grimes, who helped coordinate the week’s activities, remembered the actual crowning, “It was a really exciting week, but thank goodness it’s over!” Above: Hark!
