A FESTIVE EVENING Something new was initiated in De¬ cember as the Kecoughtan Fine Arts Department combined with the cafe¬ teria staff to present a tasty buffet dinner accompanied by an evening of great entertainment. The event was held in the cafeteria which had been transformed into a festive, candlelit dining area with selected student art works decorating the walls. With their meal, guests enjoyed the musical strains of the Kecoughtan String Or¬ chestra under the direction of Mr. Jo¬ seph Wargo with guest harpsichordist Mr. Gary Lewis. Dessert included mu¬ sic by the Show Band under the ba¬ ton of Mr. Fred Pendergraft. Featured were tunes from the Big Band Era and soloists Al Robinson, Larry Knox and Jesse Fanning. An after-dinner delight was enjoyed by the guests as the Harbor Lights En¬ semble and the Show Chorus direct¬ ed by Mrs. Lucille Sutterer, sang se¬ lected songs of Christmas. More traditional Christmas music was pre¬ sented by the A ' Capella Choir, who, after performing, moved with the En¬ semble into the audience and all present ended the evening with the singing of Away in a Manger,” Si¬ lent Night,” and Joy to the World.” Expressing his musical talent, Sam Newsome performs a solo on his saxophone.

OFF THE BEATEN TRAIL Finally gaining courage, Sandy Bruce prepares for the long run What is the craziest club in Kecoughtan? Campus Life, that ' s what! Headed by Jeff Cannon and sponsored by the Peninsula Youth for Christ, Campus Life offered singing, games and an all-around good time every Thursday night at the Willow Oaks Community Center. Campus Life also held activities throughout the year such as a trip to Disney World, Florida, a Whitewater rafting trip, a mystery ramble, a four-day ski trip to Pokino, Pa., and a one-day ski trip to Massanutten. The purpose of th e club was to help students through their high school years. The open discussions at each meeting were designed to help develop each individual in four areas: social, physical, mental, and spiritual. For the 1980-81 year, Kecoughtan ' s Campus Life Club was rated number one in the nation, averaging 150 members per meeting, and a top at¬ tendance of well over two hundred at the first meeting of the year, the Burger Bash. With so many partici¬ pants and so much enthusiasm. Campus Life proved to be a produc¬ tive experience.
