tudents pass pleasant hours with friends at school dances Dancing has become a popular pastime for teenagers everywhere, including those at Seaholm. This past year, many clubs and organizations were able to profit from this form of recreation, and had a good time in the process. Publicity, tickets, refreshments, decorations, a band - every detail had to be taken care of, if the dance was to be a success. No matter what the occasion, there was usually a dance to commemorate it. Sock hops often celebrated Maple victories after various athletic events and gave the students a chance to congregate in an informal manner. The merchants of Birmingham sponsored the Halloween dance as they had done in the past, providing entertain- ment, food, and an enioyable evening for everyone who attended. The Christmas season, Valentine's Day, and St. Patrick's Day were also used as good excuses to lure couples into the Maple Room for a pleasant evening among friends. Dee Kincaid, Tom Gardner, Marcy Pryor, Shelley Leonard, and Brian Connolly are seen through a garden trellis at Valentasia. l l Scott McEvoy displays a style all his own at the Thanksgiving dance. Keeping in step with the music of the Fugitives is Jane Taylor. l w--- - .ai

eaholm sends own students ahroadp hosts foreigners through AFS-YFU Through the AFS-YFU exchange programs, Seaholm not only sends its own students abroad but also hosts foreign students as well. In T966 Seaholm was fortunate enough to receive students from Europe and South America. AFS students this year included Mike Beck from Belgium and Oriana Zapata of Chile. Sweden's Tomas Svedberg, Will ter Marsch of Holland, and Finland's Kris Numicari participated in the YFU pro- gram. These students entered actively into school life. As Seniors, they supported a victorious Field Day, went on Washington Trip, and will graduate with the class of T967 in June. Mike helped carry the senior class banner. Remaining true to his class, he did not reveal any plans to his junior brother, John Calver. Many customs were different for Oriana but with the help of her sister Judy Johnson, she quickly got into the swing of the social and school activities of Seaholm. Will had the good fortune to stay with Lee Perry, who lived with Will in Holland this summer. Will exhibited a newly found school spirit by ioining Pep Club.
