Playing around Two of the extracurricular activities which were offered to the students this year were a drama production and a ski trip. These activities proved to be fan- tastic ways for the students to learn new skills and also have fun. On November 15-16, 1986, the cur- tains were drawn to reveal the drama “Headin’ for a Weddin’.” The setting of this comical drama is in the hills of Vir- ginia. Homer Hollobone has been writing letters to Melissa Dugan, a wealthy young lady from Rhode Island. Melissa believes Homer to be handsome and rich so she sets out to find her knight in shining armor with matrimony on her mind. When she gets to Virginia, a terrible snowstorm i3 all about her, and the car runs out of gas. In her search for shelter Melissa comes across the Hollowbone cabin. Many funny events occur during the rest of the play, but as always everything works out for a happy end- ing. The play was directed by Betty Cochrane and the student director was Tammy Tarzwell. Many hard hours of work and practice were put into making the play a great success. The other activity was more fun than work, for most. On January 25, 1986, at 3:30 a.m. the ski club began their journey. Four hours later 38 tired peo- ple arrived at the snow-covered Crystal Mountain. Saturday and Sunday afternoon were spent skiing. Or as some of the beginners would say, ... “trying to ski.” Everyone had a great time, even junior Shellie McVittie who ran into a pole coming off the Gorge and junior Ruthann Varosi who injured her arm try- ing to avoid a little kid. The trip was a great experience for those who went. Many memories were made on the weekend. Hopefully, a few members of the club improved their ski- ing ability. SKIS UP IN THE AIR, Sr. Kelly O’Mara takes fall thanks to a little help from a few friends.
