T O V E It was a sunny Saturday afternoon in mid-September. Shops were crowded and parking spaces scarce. In many ways it was a typical day in Coconut Grove, but something was different. A feeling of festivity filled the air along with strains of music and the aroma of Cozolli ' s pizza. It was not a normal day in the Grove and the many multi-colored balloons that were floating around told the story . . . University of Miami Celebrates Coconut Grove — September 16, 1978. The first annual Grove Day was well under way, thanks to the co- sponsorship of the USBG and PACE (Performing Arts for Community and Education, Inc.). The day began with a morning of shopping at the number of stores that offered discount bargains to students with Uof M IDs. An afternoon of music, fun and friends followed at Peacock Park. Country, disco and the jazz of the University of Miami concert jazz band offered a variety of music for everyone, as they lounged in the sun enjoying the company of friends. As the sun began to set and shade overtook the afternoon rays, the jazz band continued until it was time for the activities to end. But wait — that was not all. The evening was to bring even more excitement and enjoyment. Discount movies at the Grove Cinema and free beers at Monty Trainer ' s were available and the free transportation back to campus continued until I a.m., so that everyone could soak up a little bit of the Grove nighdife. All in all it was a pretty full day with enough to keep even the liveliest individual quite busy. Back at the dorm, it was either on to more partying, or for the weary ones, a good night ' s sleep. That was the first annual Grove Day — and what more is there? — the expectation of Grove Days to come. T U B E 27
