Juniors Cr c ate Oriental Gardens’ Jright red walls met juniors and seniors and their dates as they entered the gym, which had been transformed into “Oriental Gardens” for the junior-senior prom on April 24,1976. The bright red walls, ceiling, and floor were the inside of a dragon, a colorful tis- sue paper, paint, and chicken-wire creation. Stepping out of the dragon, students and teachers were enveloped by purple and pink streamers, Japanese lanterns, and cherry blossom trees. “The Prophets,” a band from Charlottes- ville, provided the music, which Becky Clary labeled, “superb, and that means excellent.” ABOVE: BEFORE WALKING onto the dance floor, Mrs. Grigg commented on the evening.
