BHS NEWS SPRING 1982 Moosonee Last March a group of Branksomites discovered a part of Ontario we knew little about, Moosonee. A long but exciting train trip on the Polar Bear Express took us up to a cold and remote little city. We were pleasantly surprised. We laughed our way with Mr. Ball, Miss Roach and Miss Brough through craft shops, a weather station (remember that balloon, girls?), slush and friendly restaurants that didn ' t know what to do with the load of us. A few of us, through hard work, even picked up a few phrases in Cree. A helicopter ride to Moose Factory took our breath away and gave us an aerial view of the surroundings we stayed in. Aside from the cold hands, cold feet and a blizzard, we all thought the trip was a great success. I urge others to expand their travels next March when the trip will be taken again.

The Formal Little was said about the formal held at the Rosedale Golf Club except that it was a success. There was a tremendous turnout by the elevens, twelves and thirteens. Every single grad was at the dance thanks to Jenny Pitman ' s dating service. The band was called the Grotto Beats and was very popular. Even better, if possible, than the Bop Cats at the U.C.C. Battalion Ball. That alone says something for girls ' school dances. Many times the dance floor was so filled that several couples ventured outside to dance on the ice covered patio. According to tradition, everyone (alright, we exag- gerated) arrived at the appointed time and went through the receiving line. Everyone was a little nervous when introducing their dates; the most memorable being when one attender in- troduced her date to Miss Roach by saying: Good evening Miss Roach, may I produce my date. As expected the traditional Laura Ashely and pastel taffeta dresses came out of closets. Black tails and red bow ties seemed to be very popular. I believe I counted seven! Finally the evening was a lovely ending to a hectic term and it was a real pleasure to see Mr. and Mrs. Levitt dancing. Carpe Diem! Sally Pitfield On May I, 1982 the annual Branksome Hall semiformal was held in the school gym. Students from grade nine and up attended the dance with their dates and moved to the disco-new wave beat of Gord James, a disc jockey from CHUM. By tradition, this dance was organized by the grade twelves. This dance surpassed all others with its large attendance (thanks to the terrific publicity), excellent food which in- cluded fresh strawberries, homemade cookies and abnormally popular punch, good music and dance contests. The lucky winners of the dance con- tests went home with B.H.S. frisbees and records from CHUM. Thanks go to the grade twelves, Martha and Kathy who all helped to make the evening a success. Jenny Ryder Spring Concert All the long hours of practice since the beginning of the Choir year had finally paid off. The 1982 Spring Concert was a smashing hit, coming to a climax with a standing ovation! The Choir members were all so thrilled just before their per- formance because for the first time in the Choir ' s history we were being accompanied by the Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra. The varieties of instruments gave the whole performance a special air. This was the time we said our good-byes to our well loved Choir master, Mr. Jordon. The audience joined in with us to wish Mr. Jordon the best in his future career and also to thank him for all his hard work in the years he was at Branksome. Without him, the Spring Concert could never have been what it was. Thanks a million Sir! Kim Cramer
