Santa once again reserved room and found time to join in the Christmas spirit as his rein- deer patiently waited outside the junior high gym. D.J. Madness sent Gayle Kiger to Peabody on De- cember 19, 1981, for the Sophomore Christmas For- mal. He played songs that everyone could relate to from rock’n’roll to the knee slapping, fun-loving kind. Attendance was low but many had an enjoyable night of visiting and “getting down to the beat.” Playing songs helps to soften the mood a way of getting couples onto the dance and get people together. Slow songs have floor and keeping it occupied. Santa makes his annual appearance Santa. Sheila Philpott, Sandi Clark, Ran- Nightengale get in the Christmas spirit of dy Preheim, Troy Arnold and Linda togetherness and fun with a dance.
