-Exchange students discuss holidays The two senior foreign exchange students experienced holiday and Christmas customs American style. Jaakko Tuomola, from Finland, stayed with host family of Mr. and Mrs. Keith Ellis. Ana Esther Chavez, foreign exchange student from Mexico spent her first Christmas away from home with her host family of Mr. and Mrs. Gary Geraud. In Finland, Tuomola said that on Christmas Eve the Finns go to visit graves of their deceased family members and they place candles on the graves. After returning from the cemetery, the Finns exchange gifts and open gifts from Joulupukki, which is the Finnish version of Santa Claus. Miss Chavez reminisced the Mexican tradition of the posadas.” These are special Christmas parties. Posada means to take or welcome someone into your home. The parties reenact the time when Joesph and Mary were looking for a place to stay the night before Jesus was born.

KBOW provides dance music High School students attended monthly dances sponsored by the BBHS Student Council with the music provided by KBOW. KBOW utilized the production equipment once used by the CONCORD radio production staff to provide the sound and disco music for the student dances. The old CONCORD equipment is portable making it available to the students for the dance purposes. The current professional equipment used by the student radio staff was purchased by the school through a Title IV government grant. Students produce the music which is provided by KBOW under the supervision of Mr. Don Davis. 14. . .Dances
