RETREATS Every year at Purcell the seniors go away in groups of 50 or 60 to a closed retreat. For some this is a time in which they get out of classes, obtain a lot of rest, and have fun in general. For others, it is a time to reappraise standards, to evaluate what has been done, and what can be done; it is a time for thought and reflection. They need it! 16

SENIOR DAY When the final days of the school year roll around, the seniors look forward to that day which is devoted to those Cavaliers who, they think, are deserving of recognition, namely themselves. Senior Day has become a part of Purcell just like the rallies, the motorcade, and the senior gift. This year brought on some changes in its format. The seniors started the day with Mass, followed by a little jam session in the gym with six guitars and a set of drums. After lunch, homerooms teamed up against each other in basketball and volleyball, followed by wrestling. Unfortunately, the suggestion of drag racin g up Cleinview was met unfavorably and the turtle race was called off because of the lack of entries.
