hat! Who would ever go back to school over Christmas vacation? Two hundred seventy-one cou- ples did just this on December 26 from 7 - 10:30 p.m. for the annual Sno-Ball. Sponsored by the Letterwinners, this annual holiday event was held as a fund raiser for various club projects. Decorated with traditional holiday colored streamers of red and green and multi-colored lights, the cafeteria was trans- formed into a winter wonder- land. The misty lights of a Christ- mas tree in the courtyard added an extra festive touch. A live group, The Band Elite, situated by what is normally the lunch line doors, provided the musical entertainment. Snacks and bev- erages were also included to stave off hunger until most cou- ples departed and visited vari- ous places for a late night snack. In the weeks prior to the cele- bration, the seniors elected Sno- Ball king and queen candidates. As the couples arrived, ballots were distributed and the final voting took place. At approxi- mately 9:30 p.m. the long await- ed results were announced. Cho- sen as king and queen were Traci Costantino and Lee Moffatt. Relgnlng as the 1987-1988 Sno-Ball king and queen, Lee Moffatt and Traci Costantino walk to center stage for the crowning. MW!
