Former royalty Mr. Blizzard, David Moshou and Miss Snowflake, Ann Martinetto, transferred their titles to Tom Wright and Paula Cross. That afternoon,broomball games took place on Lake of the Isles, where the boys once again ruled supreme. The next day was highlighted by Slave Day. where boys got their chance to subject girls to various tortures. On Friday a student talent show was presented which ranged from the junior High Steppers to a dramatic presentation given by Deborah Brin and Virginia Humphrey. After the show, volunteers competed in a banana-eating contest, in which Mark Mercer emerged as the champion. School was dismissed early, and students engaged in a romp in the snow. That evening a dance took place at St. Paul’s Church. There was also a hockey game against Henry High School which capped off three days of fun and frolic. Mr. Blizzard.
