Spirits Soar at Homecoming The week of October 20, 1980 was a very special week at Arvada West. Once again, the annual homecoming was held. The entire week was filled with spirit lifting activities. Tuesday was the first dress-up day- Nerd Day and everyone dressed ac- cordingly. Wednesday was Class Color Day . The sophomores dressed in red, the juniors in green and the seniors in white, usually in the form of togas. The afternoon activities included: tug-of-war and hall deco- ration competition. Everybody wore purple and white. Afternoon activities also included powder puff football and a football game with a pur- ple balloon send-off accompanied in the kick-off. Homecoming royalty was an- nounced and the seniors were awarded the distinction of being the winning class. 10 Introduction

Weekends were made for ■■ After five hard days of class work, the stu- dents of Arvada West deserved a break. Students entertained themselves in differ- ent fashions over the weekend. Activities ranged from parties to a nightly movie at the Westminister Theatres. Some students liked to just cruise around rather than participate in any planned activity. Many other students enjoyed going to school related activities, such as games and dances. Whatever they did, the students really enjoyed their weekends. 12 'lnt oduction
