Songs and Queens And Shin Rings Three formal dances are part of the Princess Anne tradition. For the sopho- mores, we have the May Dance, for the juniors, we have the Ring Dance, and for the seniors, there is the Prom. The Commodore Country Club was the site of the 1981 Ring Dance. As the band Redymix played popular songs, anxious juniors eagerly awaiting their turn on the traditional bridge, milled about, talk- ing about where they had gone for din- ner, what their rings were to look like, and where they were going after the dance. May Dance 1980 was also a great suc- cess. The theme was First Time by Styx, and the band, Reign, provided music for the traditional dance around the May Pole by the May Court. Later, the new May Queen was announced. Amy Somers was awarded the title of 1980 May Queen, and Ieff Ballance was named Most Outstanding Sophomore Bov.
