The Dome opened its doors wide to the cultural and civic opportunities of the community. The school actively supported the Christmas Bureau; sixty- four families enjoyed a finer holiday through the aid of homeroom collections of food, clothing, and toys. As a special project, homerooms sent letters and gifts to local men serving in Viet Nam. As individuals, Redskins volunteered in the Red Cross or the nursettes, and were employed at a variety of Fort Wayne businesses. Local theater and music groups also boasted North Side talent and patronage. Pam Richard, head of the Viet Nam project, readies a Christ- mas package for shipment to a local man overseas. Sacrificed lunches, donated time, and syphoned energy are the traditional Basket Assembly and presented to sixty-four personified in the hundreds of Christmas boxes brought to underprivileged families in the community.
