LOW etting dressed up, going out to dinner, and socializing with all my friends was really fun! ex- claimed Julia Wolfe. This exciting event known as the Mid-Winter Ball oc- curred on February 7, 1987 at the San Bernadino Hilton. I thought the Hilton was a good place to have Mid-Win- ter, explained Dani Buck, the decorations looked nice and there was enough room for everyone. The dance was girls ask guys, so it gave girls a chance to ask that special guy without feeling embar- rassed. Even though Kim Snowden and I have been going out for a long time, I was really happy that she GLANCES OF DANCE GLITTER GLISTENS asked me to the dance, ad- mitted junior Dustin Fitch. Getting dressed up and going out to dinner were the traditional characteristics of the dance. Many girls spent time after school and on weekends looking for that perfect dress. Amy Bayers, Tracy Anderson, Laura Mus- sachio, and I went to San Bernadino to try on expen- sive dresses and shop all day, confided senior, Cas- sie Anderson. Most of the guys rented tuxes from local stores carrying formal wear. Bobby McGee ' s, The Red Onion, and Ryan ' s Wharf were some of the popular places for dining out. We went to dinner with a whole bunch of friends at Bobby McGee ' s and it was a lot of fun! said Stephanie Brown, junior. SITTING AT THEIR TABLE, Billy Wat- ford, Sharon Gray, Summer John- son, and Mike Walters take a rest from dancing. A fter the dance, some people went to the beach, while others went home exhausted from dancing. M My favorite part of the Mid-Winter Ball was getting all dressed up in a tux and riding in a limo.

HREDDING CONCRETE OR WAVES? THE STOKE ' S THE SAME urf ' s up could be heard from Newport to San Ono- frey. Surfing was usually reserved for summer time frolics or plain relaxation, but there were some students who surfed all year round. When I ' m out there, I say just one more set then I ' ll leave, then one more and one more and I feel like I can ' t get enough! said Matt Steves, senior. Even though the wa- ter is cold in the winter this can ' t and won ' t stop these guys. A surfer ' s day starts around 6:30 or 7:00 a.m. and it lasts until dawn of the next day. I like to get there as early as I can, to catch the best sets, replied Brent Wells, junior. Surfing has been around since the early days of Gid- get and is still going strong, but skateboarding trends are giving it a challenge. Shredding as some die hard skaters call it, is not just skating it ' s an adventure on wheels. I really enjoy trying new tricks on my board especially acid-drops or backside boneless ' s, stated Steve Nielson, fresh- man. Skaters could be seen on the streets, in the park or even at the mall, but every- where you look you could see a surfboard here or a wetsuit there.
