Winterfest: ' ' Snowbound ' Acting as hostesses of the Dating Game. J, Taylor and Celia Cook dance during Celic night in The Cellar. Snowbound served as the theme throughout Winterfest ' 85, but snow and cold temperatures didn ' t keep stu- dents away from the week-long activi- ties. After Monday night ' s kick-off dinner in the Union, activities got into full swing on Tuesday with a Taco Special in the Oaks. On Wednesday night, a large crowd filled The Cellar to watch Celia Cook and her friends perform various humorous skits on stage. Ac- companying the acts was a Cellar Spe- cial of 50c Chili Dogs. Thursday and Friday evenings, students got the chance to see the MAC movie, Splash, and attend the free dance put on by Bob Vitoux on Friday. Saturday morning marked the start of Winterfest Ski Weekend at Can- nonsburg Ski Resort in Grand Rapids, Michigan. About thirty students and friends journeyed north, and despite the bruises, many returned with smil- ing red faces. Those students who stayed on campus were given the op- portunity to participate in a racquet- ball tourney, laugh to the Sam Click Memorial Players, or attend the AA- FRO Club ' s Sock Hop. On Sunday, racquetball continued, and a three- hour Open PERC gave students yet another chance to keep warm inside. The Frost Trot, however, proved to be bone-chilling as runners braved the outside cold air to compete Hawaiian Style with shorts and tank-tops. i rf ppi A Cellar full of students and staff turn out on Wednesday night of Winterfest for entertain- ment by Celia Cook and her friends The Sam Click Memorial Players keep students laughing Saturday night in the Union.
