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.

ECOMI G The 1981 Garden City High School Homecoming was a memorable part of the past year, and was notably more festive than that of the previous year. Perfect weather, a relatively smooth parade, and a triumphant football victory marked the occasion. Cars and floats, representing the various high school clubs and classes, participated in the parade, as well as a mysterious Trojan, who scared little children along the route. Despite the traditional fender benders, and assorted injuries, the procession advanced spiritedly. The football team, cheered on toward victory by the highly en- thusiastic crowd, shut out a strong Long Beach team 14-0. At halftime, Steve Alfieri and Claire Mullooly were awarded the titles of Homecoming King and Queen Krespectivelyj. Amidst the festivities, the Garden City High School foot- ball field was formally dedicated to Coach Warren King, com- memorating his 41 years of service.
