Gala banquets head spring festivities FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD A True Bear Story Traditionally, bears come out of hibernation in spring, hungry and lean. The Bryan Bears were no exception. Students who checked their calendars on the first warm days in March found an array of feast-days. The GAA banquet led them down Sesame Street to a smorgasbord of goodies prepared by the lunchroom staff in their most professional style. FHA girls entertained their mothers at dinner, and soon after the Latin Club staged a full-scale Roman banquet, complete with roast pig, chicken, honey cakes and fruit, finger-lickin good , served by slaves, and eaten by toga-clad guests. Next came the Spanish Club Mercado with its tacos and enchillados. Youth Power brought in area chefs for their Top of Ohio Specialties gourmet banquet, and served over 600 in sumptuous style. FFA boys and their parents celebrated awards night with a dinner, while Y-Teen girls entertained their mothers. The traditional Orchestra-A Cappella brunch was held earlier than usual in honor of the visit of Merle Isaac, guest conductor, and soon after came Panorama, with the mini-musical, Oliver, and the song of the hungry orphans. At last the springtime hunger of the Bears was satisfied with the feasting at Junior-Senior. Fit and frisky, they were ready for summertime.
