Seniors Set the Stage for Their Final Year Senior Weekend officially began on the brisk morning of September 10 as the Class of 1983 boarded the buses that took them to Camp Warren. The seniors were accompanied by faculty members who were also active participants throughout the weekend. When they arrived at Camp Warren, the seniors were divided into several groups for work detail. These projects ranged from garden work to chopping wood to replacing screens and windows. These projects allowed the seniors to help with unfinished work, to put a little of themselves into the camp, and to become better acquainted with one another. Each senior also took part in two diads, one-to-one discussions with other seniors. In addition, the seniors took time to set goals for the class and for themselves as individuals. There were meetings for both Homecoming and Senior-Nine Committees, and the college advisers met with their advisees in small groups. Along with the seriousness that accompanied Senior Weekend, there was also time for seniors and faculty to have some fun. They participated in skits, mini-olympics, a bonfire, and square dancing. Senior Weekend was a time for seniors to unwind and enjoy activities outside of school. It was a time for them to work, play, and reflect with each other. It was a time for seniors to work on becoming a more united class. 3 1. Todd Coniff and Bill Heiam lake part m the goal planning session. 2. Attack of the sea monsters! 3.

Talent Show Exposes Blake's Finest Performers Each year the Arts Department sponsors a student Talent Revue to raise money for the Blake music groups. This year's show was a great success. Singers, dancers, musicians, and entertainers from all grades displayed an abundance of talent creating an evening of enjoyable entertainment and a productive fund raiser. The Talent Revue gave the audience its first glimpse this year of the Upper School's six singing groups: Concert Choir, Mixed Company, Women's Chorus, All That jazz. Men's Glee Club, and Blaker's Dozen. Although it was their first 1982 performance, the groups sang with confidence. Music Director Cinny Claessens led the groups, while accomplished composer pianist Severin Behnen accompanied them. In addition to the singing groups, the show included several individual acts. Some performances included: a rendition of Mockingbird sung by Seniors Mari Tankenoff and Adam Chase, a song and dance piece Are You From Dixie? performed by Sophomores Rachel Ratner and Laura Deikel, a contemporary dance by junior Dodie Askegaard, a skit performed by juniors Andrea Wallack, Debbie Farber, and Sophomore Sharon Fischlowitz, and a show tune So Long, Dearie sung by Junior Tori Bush. Concluding the evening's entertainment was rock band Tempus Fugit, which performed several original songs, as well as old favorites. Band members Tom Bergerson, Happy Cloutier, and Tim Francis played while students danced. The 1982 Talent Revue proved to be a success, both artistically and financially.
