Sadie Has a New Twist “Hi Steve? This is Kathy ... right, Kathy Thomas, you know, I sit behind you in English. Well, I was wondering if you would like to go with me to Sadie. You would?! I mean, you would? Great. Well, I’ll see you in school tomorrow. G’bye. Conversations similar to this flowed across telephone wires a few weeks prior to December 3, the date of Sadie Hawkins. Sadie took place at Rock Isle Hay and Sleigh in Waconia. A new twist was added this year — couples were to come dressed as twins, and a prize was given to the cutest couple, juniors Jeff Olson and Cara Asche. Sleigh rides, square dancing, and limbo contests were the main attraction. Couples could get hitched by Mrs. Jan Johnson. The jail was open for guys caught not holding their date’s hand.
