Homecoming Dance 1988 .. . A Night of Magic The 1988-89 Homecoming Dance was an exciting event for many Monacan students. The SCA began preparing for the eighth of October many weeks in advance. They decided on the theme and then decorated ac- cordingly. The Saturday morn- ing before the dance the SCA officers, a few representatives, and sponsor Mr. Ken Butta worked diligently to change the Upperclassman Dining Hall into a room filled with magic. Homecoming provided the chance for dressing up and hav- ing a great time with that special guy or girl. Those attending danced to music provided by Crimson, a professional band. The theme for the dance was “Do you believe in magic?” Two magicians, one of whom was Monacan’s own Kevin Finu- cane, performed during the band’s break. The crowd seemed to enjoy them and talked about them for several days afterwards. Everyone enjoyed themselves as they danced the night away. Unfortunately, the night had to end. Eddie Dooley and Mike Dougherty gave an ending that no one will ever forget: a smash- ing duet of “Under the Board- walk.” Michelle Wilson, Stephanie Smigo and their dates enjoy a breath of fresh air in the courtyard during the dance. Taking a break from dancing, Sherita Smith and Stan Clanton enjoy a moment together. 12 HOMECOMING DANCE
