When Dororhy Giffel first come up wirh rhe ideo, she hod no rhoughrs of ir becoming such a success. She first brought ir up to Miss Par Ankney and Mr Robert Vinters. And, after much discussion ir was decided that through- out rhe 1983 84 school year rhe Essex- ville-Hompron community would cele- brate rhe school systems first 20 years, to be formally colled Two Decodes of Progress. They decided that 20 years was rea- son Enough for celebration rather than to wait unril rhe quarter of a century mark in another 5 years. One of rhe reasons for this decision wos rhe fact that they felt rhe community could use some of rhe favorable publicity they were hoping for and have received. They also felt ir would be nice to indude i yo4-1 yo4 those original members of rhe board who or this rime still reside in rhe area. So, plans were made. Beginning in September rhe events, which would continue throughout rhe year, began. Throughout rhe second week of September, birthday celebra- tions were held or rhe different schools. Included in this was an assembly where speakers told of how ir wos in rhe begin- ning compared to now. The celebration was complete wirh birthday coke for everyone. Later on in rhe month, rhe Two Decodes of Progress Celebration Dinner was held or rhe Elks Club. When Homecoming rolled around in October, there was an Alumni Dance held followed up by exhibits set up or rhe Hampton Square Mall to observe our celebration during American Educa- tion Veek in November. During rhe Chrisrmos season we were treated to rhe annual concert. A donation to rhe food drive allowed spectators to enjoy this performance. The food drive was instituted to aid rhe less fortunate families in rhe community. Along wirh Grandparents Day, which was very successful, rhe Gorber Showoff — Through rhe Years” was also a great success. These are a couple of examples of events inriared because of rhe celebration which may become annual events due to rhe positive re- sponse rhey created. Festivities for rhe year come to o close wirh rhe burial of rhe rime capsule, which would be uncovered 50 years hence, and, of course, graduation cere- monies June 10th. — Mimi Holsinger I It's nice to see everyone so excited about some- thing positive rather than negative.” — Mr Vinters % DECADES of progress APPY BIRTHDAY Hwutaw Two Decades Of Progress
