It is with resolute faith that we initiate SANGRAAL 75. Faith not only in our school and in God, but also faith in ourselves. We believe that Benilde-St. Margaret's has helped us prepare for whatever new beginnings may challenge us. The theme for SANGRAAL 75 is beginnings. That doesn't take much explaining. However, the name of the book does. You see, according to legend... Sangraal (sah-grai), or Holy Grail, was the chalice used by Christ at the Last Supper. It was given to Joseph of Arimathea who then took it to Britain. The cup was liidden away when the land fell into wickedness. A vision of the Grail appeared first to a nun and then to the Knights of the Round Table at Camelot. It was so enchanting that all of the knights vowed to search for it. Legend ruled that only the purest could find Sangraal. The knights errant set out with staunch hearts, but only one succeeded. Sir Galahad, the perfect knight, found it and died, clad in silver armor and with a face like an angel's. Sangraal was then borne up into heaven, never to be seen again. As we assemble here at the Round Table of Benilde-St. Margaret's, some are already searching for the Sangraal in their lives. Let us be strengthened and consoled by one another so that we may continue in our quests. We trust that through this book every Red Knight will remember part of his or her journey.

There’s a season for beginnings when the world is fresh and new, when we shape our dreams of all the things we plan and hope to do. A season for maturing when we think and work and grow. And a season for the harvesting of all we've come to know. And each successive season grows still richer than the last as treasures of the present add to memories of the past. Karen Ravn 4
