Glenn Bass receives a little help with his boutonniere just before the Junior Prom JUNIOR PROM The Junior prom for the class of 84 was held in Gigi’s in Westbury. Approximately eighty couples attended the semi-formal event. The theme song of the evening’s festivities was “On the Wings of Love.” During the first part of the evening a buffet was available downstairs, followed by a sit-down dinner and dancing in the main ballroom. Prom bids for the class of ’84 cost $40, but the consensus of those who attended was that the evening was well worth the cost. John Kirk and Jill Bouza line up to sample the buffet at Gigi's. 18 Junior Prom

The Guest of Honor at the Halloween Dance was found hanging around (from a basketball hoop). HALLOWEEN DANCE Spiders hung from the basketball hoops and skeletons sat above them. Cobwebs festooned the walls. The gym creeped and crawled with slithering things, and it wasn’t the same old gym where students usually huffed and puffed doing athletic things. It was the annual Hallo- ween Dance. The students came to haunt, dressed as vam- pires and ghosts and ghouls. The music was New Wave and Punk, and a smidgen of Heavy Metal, and it didn’t stop, except for the award- ing of prizes for the best costumes of the night. Among the winners were a “grim reaper a “frogman,’’ and the French maids. The dance lasted until the witching hour of midnight, and then the revelers vanished from the gym to continue their merrymaking until DJ Larry Zitzmann readies the next record as its predecessor comes to its end. . , the early hours of the morning.
