Great Dance Wraps Up Homecoming omecoming '85 was one of Morro Bay's most successful weeks of enter- tainment. Tacky Tourists visited our campus on a drizzly Monday morning. Cameras, hawaiian prints, dress socks, and sandals started homecoming week with an explosion of color. Noon time activities were centered around the particularly skillful in the area of water balloon tossing, while will- ing students volunteered to be participants in the ever-popular test tube fill competition. Tuesday of spirit week brought friends to- gether, with Twin Day as the theme. Cou- ples danced to a variety of tunes provided by radio station Z-93 before an unscheduled water balloon fight refreshed several inno- cent bystanders. While many clubs offered a variety of delicacies at the carnival, the Car Club gave students an outlet for aggressions during their smash-a-thon fund raiser. Wednesday's competition thankfully did not involve water. The two-by-four ski race proved to be one of the week's most chal- lenging class competitions and gave us an idea of how cooperation is a necessity in achieving a goal. An unusual theme, Clash Day found students dressed in assorted paisley, camouflage and pastel prints, while others were confused and came dressed as their favorite rock stars, The Clash . To conclude the day of fun the bon fire behind the old gym gave MBHS coaches the chance to inform, update, and encourage their fans and players with a rousing pep talk. Class Unity Day on Thursday and Blue and White Day on Friday offered students a way to show spirit for their class as well as their school. Times were tense the last few days of Homecoming, as eighteen king and queen nominees were trimmed to five fina- lists. The suspense finally ended when the king and queen were announced during half- time festivities brightening an otherwise dis- appointing evening as the football team lost to Paso Robles. A combined city and school parade brought back fond memories of the way parades used to be. To complete the extra special week of fun, the old gym pro- vided a well decorated palace for friends to dance the night away, while making Home- coming 1985, a Memory, a Dream. 36 Homecoming t t X C ....,. ,. .-.,. ..,, me SAW - i l l M S ...NR K. is kkrk A
