GIVE 'EM A HAND. Seniors give a big round of applause as the 1986-1987 Homecoming Royalty passes by. DO .. RE . Ml. Singing her heart out, Jenny Sanford hits all the right notes and receives a standing ovation. Coronation Events Ease Suspense After students voted, all anticipated the final results For all involved, the Coronation ceremony proved to be the most exciting event of Spirit Week. Suspense filled the air as the crowd was entertained by the Jefferson band and choir. Jenny Sanford thrilled the audience with a solo of Kiss Me in the Rain. Jason Drabek also captured the listeners with his rendition of Memories. Finally, the moment had arrived. There was a loud drum roll, Kevin Lynch was crowned King and Machelle Balistreri, Queen. The new queen let out a cry of surprise that was drowned out by the roar of applause. Tony Porthan and Jenny Garnet, the 1985-1986 King and Queen, gave their crowns to the new royalty. With wide grins. King Kevin and Queen Machelle walked down the runway nodding at the onlookers. Standing together, they were formally congratulated by the rest of the Royalty. Warren Bergan conducted the ceremonies, and a few volunteer students helped to decorate the gym. As the events of the day came to an end, the excitement all but died in anticipation of the game and dance soon to come.

Homecoming Dance Warms Cool Night The first formal dance of the year proved to be “A Night to Remember” Warming a wet autumn night was easy on Homecoming when couples danced to their favorite love songs. The day had begun with a few last minute dinner reservations and then five or six hours of getting ready. Ladies stocked their handbags with everything they needed. In a typical purse there was anything from nail polish to a needle and thread. The gents were busy doing little favors for their parents in hopes that Santa would come a little early with a $20 bill. Then, the escort arrived and Mommy and Daddy took thousands of pictures of their little ones all dressed up — it was such a rare occasion. Next, it was on to the dance. If all went well, the couple arrived at 8 pm. Shoes were tossed to the side to make dancing to Suits of Skin possible. The traditional Homecoming pictures were taken after a long wait in the line. The dance officially ended at 11:30 but, as the theme said, it was A Night to Remember.
