Class Mistory As this is being written, tentative plans are being made for a senior activity. We know that wher- ever we decide to go we will enjoy ourselves and remember the occasion always. Before graduation, on a cool, clear night, June 10th, our senior prom was held. The Chase Country Club was decorated so beautifully that it made the dance seem like a dream. The dinner was ex- cellent and the music made everyone want to dance all night. It was a night every senior will remem- ber forever. After our final exams had been taken, we were ready to face the biggest day of our lives. Grad- uation day was here, the moment we were all waiting for. The gym was quiet as our parents and friends seated themselves. As we started up to the stage to receive our diplomas, we found it hard to believe that our Kaynor Tech school days had run out. Four years filled with sun and shadows, laughter and tears, work and play—the little things—the understanding smile, the helping friendships in time of trouble, the friendly advice—all cast unforgettable backgrounds. Thus, the final curtain-call came for the class of ’61 with smiles and tears for friends and memories we have had at Warren F. Kaynor Regional Technical School. •I i rj ■ ■■ j H 'B1 ' 1,1J w Class Compact We, the class of 1961, do hereby pro- claim to all and sundry, with all due sol- emnity, that we have agreed to hold a class reunion in the year 1966.
