We’ve Got The Winter Come on baby, light my lire. Stand up — be proud. Th« 1983 Royal Winter Games lolled to a start on a brisk Monday morning as King Stuart Brown and Queen Kecia Erickson were coronated before an anxious and restless crowd. No sooner had the King and Queen been crowned, than the Royal Knights paraded into tho court with the Winter Games symbolic flame. The flame had originated at tho Hopkins City Hall and was ceremoniously carried through icy streets to Hopkins High. The lighting of the Winter Flame officially started the new “Royal Winter Games tradition. The duration of the week was filled with activities for excited but sometimes skeptical students. A definite rock beat could be heard as well as felt, as school bands battled In the theater. Hundreds of students cheered for our valiant basketball team early in the week, but oven the disappointing Ices couldn't dampen Royal spirits. Frozen students and staff wandered through the halls alter fighting the winter chill to play games of broomball and snow-softball. Other students sweat it out indoors, playing competitive games of volleyball, table tennis, and badminton. Some students even dared the creative games of twister, human checkers, and arm wrestling. The tempo of the Winter Week was completed with seven inches of soft, feather-light snow, blanketing the city in a chilly layer of winter white. The snow was a good omen, bnnging out the winter sprit in everyone. Your majesty, the king. The Urban Cowboys. 20 Royal Games
