Held at the Huntington Townhouse on a hot and rainy Friday evening, Iune 19, the prom was an occasion of sadness but at the same time one of laughter. We gathered together to say farewell and good luck to our friends who would be graduating on Sunday, and likewise, to celebrate our emergence as high school seniors. True, before and after the prom, couples functioned separately, going to cocktail parties, and later, enjoying intimate company. However, during the prom, members of our grade, along with up- perclassmen and faculty, congregated on the dance floor, in the lobbies, and at the tables, for one of the few moments during our high school careers when we would function as a whole - the class of 1982.

SUMMER The summer of 1981 came and went quickly, as sum- mers have a habit of doing. Garden City students spent the three months of freedom in a multitude of ways. While some engaged in the traditional seasonal activities such as beaching, partying, and relaxing, many students entertained themselves by traveling. Several spent the summer abroad, while others remained at home main- taning summer jobs. A few students even decided to broaden their academic horizons by attending various education-related institutions, ranging from science research at exclusive Roswell Park, to Regents Chemistry at the less selective Camp Mineola. Despite the diversi- ty of activities, it is agreed that the summer was a much- needed, and indispensable piece of last year.
