Night Caters to Different Interests “It’s Friday!” “All right!” “What ya’ doin’ tonight?” “Party hearty!” “There’s a wrestling meet here.” “We re goin' boy chasin’.” “I’m gonna watch Dallas.” Meet us at Planet Caravan.” “Where’s the party?” “I've got to babysit.” “Let’s go see Sharkey’s Machine.” “I’ve got Chemistry to do.” “I'll wait for him till 8:00, then I’m leaving.” “I’m goin’ roller skating. “I’ve got to work.” “I’m taking a night course.” “I’m gonna practice my music.” “Come on, go with us!” “I’m just gonna sleep.” This sort of talk can be heard most Fridays (or any other day, for that matter) in the lunch room, commons, hall, or a classroom. The students of CHS like to enjoy themselves after a long school day. Some did have to work, but even while working they found ways to have fun. Sometimes they didn’t get off till after 1:00, while some other students worked shifts starting at 5:00 or 6:00 in the morning. During basketball and football season, there would always be a crowd of CHS kids at the game. Games were a good place to get rowdy and to show school spirit. Students would also take “road trips” and go to away games. Road trips weren’t just for out of town games, though. Any excuse was fine. If someone wanted an Arby’s sandwich or something else not found in Columbus, they’d pack up some friends and drive. Some didn’t even have a destination in mind; they were just “on the road again’’. Students also like to party. The parties were as different as the people attending them. Just ask the people who had a beach party on the Safeway parking lot. Taking a break from work at Casey s is Lisa Bobert. Laughing and talking together are Jerry Erks and Shawn Mueller.
