A tall, regal evergreen tree adorned in festive colors, towered above the room. Outside, chil- dren, bundled in warm clothing, played in endless fields of cold, white snow. Long icicles hung off the roof. A saguaro cactus stood in the front yard all aglow in bright, colorful Christmas lights. Kids in shorts and t-shirts tossed a foot- ball around, comfortable in 70° weather. These two scenes described Christmas, yet only the second fits Arizona. After moving from the harsh, cold Midwest and East to the sunny state of Arizona, many missed the old traditions of sleigh rides, snowball fights, and sub- zero temperatures. Christmas week was celebrated in various ways. The week before vacation, Student Council spon- sored various dress-up days. Stu- dents decked out in Santa hats and their best red and green attire. In addition, five tons of man- made snow was trucked in and dumped on the senior lawn. During lunch, students were able to reac- quaint themselves with the cold, wet, white stuff. Many school clubs, such as Dra- ma, Yearbook, and Newspaper, celebrated with the Secret San- ta” custom. Students secretly se- lected another club member and purchased gifts for them. While many have trouble getting used to Christmas in Arizona, the Christmas of '85 was just a bit dif- ferent. For the first time in dec- ades. measurable snow was re- corded, surprising and pleasing many students, lonely for a good snowfall. Design by Patrick Harvan Photos by Andy Phelps. Awestruck with their gifts, Diane Os- good, Karen Sheffield, Tiffany Robin- son, and Christine Gates view the year’s “scenery.” Casey Clas and Angie Baxter hungrily look over the delicasies offered at the Home Ec Christmas bake sale. 42
