Enthusiastic crowd enjoys Turnabout Nearly 200 couples attended the 1981 Turnabout Dance, “A Candlelight Christmas,” held December 5, from 7 to 11 p.m. in the school cafeteria. Weeks before the dance, girls began thinking about asking that special so¬ meone. Searching for the perfect dress or hunting up an old one, ordering flowers and making dinner plans were a few preparations girls had to take care of before the dance. On the morning of December 5, members of the Inklings staff decorated the cafeteria for the eventful evening. The setting for the evening was a dimly lit cafeteria with the soft glow of Christmas tree lights catching couples’ eyes as they entered. Murals of Christmas scenes, candles, streamers, bells and small burning candles on each table, contributed to the festive mood of the evening. Although the dance got off to a slow start, the dance floor was suddenly crowded with couples who danced the night away. The enthusiasm of the couples made the 1981 Turnabout a night no one will forget. Jim Fischer, Editor-in-chief of Inklings, (top right) announced Amy O’Shea as queen of the 1981 Turnabout Dance.
