OBSERVING and remembering through the COLONNADE the Faculty , Students and Activities oi the Year 1960-1961 “With warning hand I mark Time’s rapid flight, From life’s glad morning to its solemn night; Yet, through the dear Lord’s love, I also show There’s light above me by the shade I throw.” — -Whittier From its position on the front lawn of the school, the sundial has marked the time for all of the activities around CCHS. The Colon- nade has asked it to record the happenings of 1960-61. It has withstood all types of weather for the privilege of observing its friends in the student body and faculty. In the autumn, it witnessed a great occurrence, the coming of the eighth graders. When the football season began, the loyal sundial cheered and groaned as the team won or lost. The sundial was also right behind Mrs. Ray Evans as she snapped group pictures on the steps. Then as winter rolled around, it suffered almost two weeks of loneliness as the students and faculty enjoyed their Christmas vacation. Not long after school commenced again, the poor sundial suffered a severe blow, snow, piles of it! For days at a time, the school would be empty because of this cold, white substance. All this time, basketball games were being played, usually not on schedule. During the school year, the sundial also viewed the club meet- ings and activities. It enjoyed the music drifting out of the gym on the night of the Cotillion and attentively watched the couples coming and going on Prom night. But the last event of the year, the sundial reports, was the worst. This was the departure of the seniors, whose activities it had observed for five years. Marking Time — The sundial, opposite page , was placed on CCHS grounds in 1950 by the alumni from 1915 to 1946 in memory of Miss Ruth Campbell, who taught in Culpeper for over thirty years. From the opposite end of the campus, right picture , students throng from shop, music, study hall areas. { 5 ]§
