MEMORABLE HAPPENINGS Special events were the happenings that made everyone’s days in high school memorable. Events that you could participate in freely with no pressure; and besides, they were fun! The first thing everyone looked to at the beginning of school was Homecoming Week. The Parade, the Dance, Spirit Jug, Spirit Chain and last also least, (this year) the Bonfire. Unfortunately, the construction took over the Bonfire sites. Beside that one inconvience it was ever exciting with Anne Carter crowned Homecoming Queen, the Seniors winning the Spirit Chain and Sophomores taking the overall Spirit Jug. Once again the Drama department put out an excellent production of “Rumplestiltskin.” After the play was presented to Meadowbrook students and the public, the cast began giving matinee performances for the elementary schools in the area. These productions have brought the Drama department out of debt and into Some much needed revenue. Being as successful as they were, Ms. Barth, Mr. Benns plan to do the same in coming years. College night (annual event) brough many higher learning establishments and their representatives into Meadowbrook. The chance to visit with three colleges of your choice helped many in their decisions of where to apply. The Christmas Concert, given by the Choral and band groups, were well put together and choreographed as usual. Directed by Mr. Benns and Mr. Minnigh, each number had a special flair with Christmas spirit. The arrival of Santa added that “special touch,” “Merry Christmas to alle The Senior class, wanting very much to get, once again, into the lime light, put on the first annual Meadowbrook Gong Show! Using student and faculty talent made it all the more fun. Owww! A night that is always highly attended is the Miss Meadowbrook Pageant. The SCA made the stage decorations and Stage Band supplied the music for the magical crowning of Miss Meadowbrook 1978. The night that Juniors dread, till it came, and Seniors looked to as “The Point of No Return” was the Jr., Sr. Prom. Decorations, as usual, weren’t finished till the last minute but everything came off fine and a good time was had by all who attended. The drama department spring production was the musical ‘‘Camelot.” The singing was good and talent unlimited. There may be “‘stars”’ in the futures of Meadowbrook graduates. These were the memories of the year “78.” May they always be remembered.
