'espite chill weather Next came the time many students had been waiting for--the annual street dance. It continued to 12:30 a.m. despite the rain that occurred midway through it. Saturday offered many different ac- tivities to keep everyone busy, such as a pet contest, a baby contest, an apple pie baking contest, plenty of music, and several games and rides. Junior Kim Jones commented on the weekend by saying, Apple Festival was especially fun for me this year. I got to see a lot of old friends I hadn't see in a while. It was a fun weekend for all who were willing to face the cold. At this year's Apple Festival, these students find that huddling together is the best wav to keen warm. This group of students takes a rest from the action to pose for a picture. il QN, 17? X . ...W . . K :fkj lv 17

The BHS band opens Friday's activities with its annual concert. Seniors Jennifer DeMaire and Melissa Burch display the warm feeling of friendship felt throughout the weekend. Cold--this one word described the entire atmosphere of this year's Apple Festival. Expecting this, though, most people were prepared. They went into the back of their closets and emerged with their winterH clothing. Gloves, scarves, sweaters, and coats were the correct apparel for this October weekend. Despite the cold, some students were brave. A few ventured outside early Friday morning to eat breakfast on the square. The first event Friday night was the Bloomfield High School band concert. This opportunity gave the senior band members a chance to show off their newly earned senior jackets. A chorus program followed the band concert. The chorus performed its own rendition of the Spanish song, La Bambaf' Also, the swing choir performed for the first time at the Apple Festival. After the musical program the time came to crown the 1987 Apple Festival Queen. Melissa Campbell of Bloomfield received second runner-up. She was also voted Miss Congeniality by the other contestants. Melissa had this to say about the contest, It was a lot of hard work but also a lot of fun. I met many new and interesting people. Terrie Picou of Eastern received first runner-up. Teena Winger of Central was crowned this year's queen. The swing choir makes its debut at the Apple Festival singing, Applause, Applause. These four contestants nervously await their turn at the microphone. layout by Amy Collins copy hy Christa Wright 16 Apple Festivalpopula GY' N! fgiiiif i

Memories 0 eotland Festival Queen Angie Smith and her court travel down Main Street in the Scotland Parade. The sun was shining warm and bright, and the little town of Scotland was alive with the gathering of family and friends. As stated by senior Russell Merkel, f'The Scotland Festival is a great op portunity for old friends and relatives to reunite and talk about the good ole' days. The day began with Bloomfield's very own Angie Smith being crowned as the Scotland Festival Queen with Lisa Lowder being chosen as Miss Congenialityg Kimberley Grove, First Runner-upg and Tracy Plano of Odon as Second Runner- up. Next, as the highlight of the day, was the traditional Scotland Parade. Despite the warm weather and hot, itching uniforms, the band marched on among the various floats, three-wheelers and horses and buggies. Throughout the remainder of the af- ternoon, people were able to browse among numerous tables of antiques and many delicious food stands or sit in their lawn chairs and listen to some good old country music. As the day came to an end, the little town of Scotland, exhausted from all the excitement and festivities, settled down with another day full of memories. Joe Medina plays his trumpet with total determination in the parade. If QXXRKYV , I 1 r , .l .
