Mardi Gras Adds Color Social life was always an important part of student life at BHS. The Mardi Gras featured dancing along with decorated booths and hours of fun. A make- your-own sundae stand and the freshman putt-putt booth were just two of the booths where students spent time. Festive colors filled the gymnasium with the air of the real Mardi Gras, as clubs decorated their booths. The A.V. club ran a computer booth and Student Council was in charge of the refreshment stand. Sean McAndrew tries his hand at putting at the freshman booth. Excited students can't wait to get into the Mardl Gras. At the junior class booth, Greg Kaplan serves ice cream with a smile 24 Student Life

•mi-.': Being in fashion was the concern of many including Tim Holmes and Em mi Birrer. Chris Mead and Kathy Vincent display their artistic talent. Bexley Is Diverse Crowd What is a Bexleyite? This question was not easily answered due to the diversity of students at Bexley High School. Recreation seemed a main concern. On weekends Bexleyites traveled to Clearfork or Snow Trails, and some as far as Colorado, to get close to nature and the elements on the ski slopes. Those more inclined to warm weather activities could be found at the country club where they could socialize over a round of golf or a set of tennis. Florida was a main attrac- tion especially over winter and spring breaks. On the cultural side, students directed their talents to drawing, painting, singing, and the playing of musical instruments. A conflict of interest presented itself in the area of fashion. Bexleyites were torn between the traditional preppy look and the current styles of mini-skirts, baggy jeans,and punk. Bexleyites, concerned with the economy and the future, looked toward a future as executives and businessmen and sampled a variety of jobs. A Bexleyite was different things to different people, but each had dignity and pride as a representation of the community. Buffy Winans and Charlie Ballenger know practice is a part ot being a dedicated musician. Matt Hunley and Betsy Wood help uphold the Bexley tradition of wearing conservative clothing. ■N 26 Student Life •' k
