OPEN ARMS .... JUNE 5, Anthony Cerasia and Laurie Gentile enjoy each other's company apart from the crowd. Prom fever begins around April and the excitement builds as the prom draws nearer. Cou- ples decides what colors they will wear. Prom night is picture night too, since everyone looks so terrific; and, of course, part of the fun is going to parties all night and out to breakfast at dawn. On Saturday, June 5, 1982, the Junior class of '83 held their prom at the Poplar's Restau- rant. Three years of planning were rewarded with a lot of fun and excitement. The theme song was Open Arms by Journey, and the colors light blue and white. Music was pro- vided by the Smythe Brothers, whose beat kept the class danc- ing all night inside instead of on the terrace, since it was a rainy night. But the rain didn't stop anyone from having a good time. After dinner, came the even- ing's highlight-the crowning of the King and Queen. Kurt Shoblom and Stacy Salino were the lucky couple chosen, and they have the following to say about the prom: This is one night I will never forget, said King Kurt. Early morning is one of the best parts of the whole night-everyone's half asleep and starts saying stupid things. If you get the chance- go-you won't be sorry. Queen Stacy remembers, I had a great time. Towards the middle of the night people for- got about the rain and the ner- vousness was gone. The prom was one of the most memora- ble nights of my life. Others attending remember: Great band! (Valerie Smith), Changing back into my jeans! (Jodene Dresch), and Stealing as many glasses as possible. (John Phillips) As you can see, the class of '83 remembers prom night well. Looking back on prom night has its special memories. That night and the moments shared by the class of '83 will never be forgotten. 1982 It's tough to dance and talk at the same time-as witnessed by John Hanifan and Kelly Jo Edick. I do, I do! : Stephanie Bakyta and Anthony Javarone.

S.G.A., Touchdown Club, I.F.C., Husky Growl. What are they? a newcomer asks. Most of us know, they're the names of a few of the many active clubs at G.H.S.. Not only clubs and sports, but also such things as after-school jobs, going to concerts, and attending keg parties comprise the meaning of Student Life. It's time to un- wind, relax, and have a mega- good time. This year because the Oracle has chosen The Rock as their theme, new activities emerged and made The Rock a greater focal point. The christening of The Rock with a bottle of champagne and a pep rally were included in activities which took place at G.H.S.'s unique piece of property and spirit-builder. Living up to tra- dition, The Rock was painted many times this year by various spirited sports teams, classes, and clubs. Whether you're one who, at 2:48 p.m., heads for the nearest Golden Arches, participates in sports, or attends meetings, you're an essential part of Stu- dent Life.
