Hall to Eagle Field to Sixth Street, students always found a variety of pastime activities for the weekend. By the end of the week, l'm so burnt out on school I have to go do something to have fun, replied junior Tara Ebersole after being asked why she liked Friday so much. Some students find it necessary to begin venting their school-inflicted frustrations as soon as that 3:21 bell rang on Friday. We used to go to Round Rock lfor Taco Belll after school. Pretty soon other people were going up there with us, said sophomore Melodee Norment. With the ending of the day came the beginning of the night, excitement-starved students fled their homes in search of something to do. The question was always raised, Any Parties? Well, only if they were lucky. An occasional party at Booty's, by the river or at someone's house was a monumental event, drawing every possible person within the city limits to the party. Then, of course, there was the Austin-bound crowd. Bennigan's by Highland Mall was a well visited site, along with any movie theater, the bowling alley, and, of course, Sixth Street. Sixth Street may have offered a chance to see new and different people, but it did have a problem with crime through the months of lanuary and February. When the Debonaires played in Round Rock at the S.P,l.S.T., the streets of Georgetown, remained virtually empty. Community Center dances were sponsored by ICE, DYNASTY, EXTASY, or EXILE. Of course, during football season, not only students, but the whole town turned out for the games and spectacular half-time shows. After a home game a dance would be held at the high school, lt was usually a victory dance. Not only were the nights filled with entertainment, the two days of being able to shop and go to the lake were always well spent. Even after a rain, people headed for the lake. If they couldn't get any sun, they were assured of a good mud brawl. When senior Kyra Picken was asked about what she usually did on the weekends, she replied with a slight smirk, Take an awful lot of road trips and play with a lot of clocks. I usually go to Rogers, then Austin, Temple, . . said Senior Audra Buchanon. Having Austin so close to Georgetown gave students the choice of what to do on the weekends. For example, concerts always drew a Georgetown crowd. Prince, Kiss, Bryan Adams, Madonna, and Chicago were among the most popular concerts. In whatever students were doing for their weekends, they were having fun. Even if it was just the ever reliable cruising through town, How's the water, Stubbie? Weekends 27
