“Were you one of these crazy people who was run¬ ning around the halls, shouting, and crashing into the walls last week?” “Yeah, that was me! We were dressed up as nerds as part of Homecoming Week. ” “Oh! That’s what that was! I thought maybe you were feeling the after effects of another concert.” “Ha. Ha. I seem to remember that you couldn’t stand up for a week after the Bruce Springsteen concert and at the Bryan Adams concert you were found dancing on the top of cars in the parking lot with the ticket collector. ” “That’s not true! It was the janitor!” “Wasn’t he the one you took to the prom? I heard that he was such a dog that you had to put a leash on him. ” “Very funny. How would you like one of those cow bells that you’ve been ringing at the games “pealed” off of your head?” “Are you trying to say that you don’t like the way I display my school spirit? Is that what you’re sayingV’ “If the shoe fits . . I ■ ' IllliSS E ■ ■ ' WEr- : ' E.EEr.Ev ■■ ■■ • E--, ' E ' ' : ■ ' • ■: ■ : . : E ■ : ' ■ ' ■ Student Life Divider 5

“Fun In The Sun” Annual Beach Music Festival Comes To Foothills What images do the words “shagging, and the Chairman of the Board” bring to mind? Certainly not a school board meeting! These terms refer to the annual “Fun In The Sun” Beach Music Festival held at Wayside Park by the Stuart Jaycees. This was the fourth year for the Jaycees and it was definitely a success. As a mat¬ ter of fact, it was too success¬ ful! “We needed more parking facilities, and we ran out of room for vehicles and people. It was that popular!” com¬ ments Jaycee director, Bill Pons. Some of the groups that performed were big-name East-coast favorites such as the Band of OZ, Embers, The Tams, and the Part-time Par¬ ty Band. The Chairman of the Board was unanimously voted the favorite of the event and received the most enthusiasm from the crowd. The festival did not go off completely without a hitch, though, reflects Bill Pons. “We always have difficulty in finding enough people who are willing to work all day to make this event a success. And there are always problems with crowd control when alcohol is permitted in the audience, but we’ve had very little trouble with that one. We’ve really been proud of the audience.” Many of the students here at Patrick County High at¬ tended the festival and deemed it a huge success. One commented, “It made my summer! What a party-time!” These favorable opinions and the favorable turnout, hand-in-hand with the never- ending popularity of beach music, will keep “Hot Fun in the Sun” just as much fun for year to come! Annually, the Beach Music Festival is held at Wayside Park and each year the crowd gets bigger while the music gets better. As seen here many students from P.C.H.S. enjoyed the weekend filled with sun, fun, and, of course, beach music. Taking a break from the hot sun, these seniors provide some entertainment of their own. I guess you could say they sire enjoying a little “afternoon delight.” 6 Beach Music Festival
