Rachel Boland and Keith Power always seemed to be gating dreamily into each other 's eyes whenever the camera was anywhere nearby What else could we do but take a classic photograph of two people who were so happy to be together of the prom Center below Being alone was all that mattered for Susan Sullivan and Eddie Flavin They definitely enjoyed each others company and managed to teach Mr Charles Bail largeon. the assistant director at the VocTech, a lesson or two about enjoying someone's company Strapless gowns were in abundance April Tierney and Beth Vacca both chose to wear them They also chose a table near the windows and away from the teachers Why their male companions left them alone for any length of lime is beyond the comprehension of this staff Center above Nicole Manton may have been thinking Take my picture and you die1 , but caught by the all seeing camera, everyone can sec that she looked even more gor geous than usual, olf dolled up for the prom. Bets are that many a young man wished he hod asked her first. Debbie Thomson and Dave Tocchio from the bockdrop for Chnstme Gorman, who looks longingly for her date. Sean Munroe. Every young lady was so beautiful and every young man so handsome that it was hard for many of the teachers to believe these were their students As the prom night got later and later, the dance floor replaced Pageant as the place to neck Patti Higgins and Mark Wisnes ;usf showed a fraction of the passion that was evident everywhere on the dance floor Actually, there was no more kissing then at any prom Tricia Monahan and Andrea Roche reolly know how to party it up Tricia was no fool She wore matching slippers, so she could happily dance the night away Like many other young ladies. Andrea spent most of the night dancing bare foot I lere. she waves her shoes over her head Diane Martell and her date. Richard Thurston, enjoy a brief respite from the frantic dancing. They each found something different to watch Some of the juniors found that catching their breath gave them lime to mingle with their friends before being dropped back onto the floor photographs by Lincoln Studios and Mr. Charles GUnittmcz

IF ONLY IT WOULDN’T END the prom ended, the centerpiece from each table disappeared. A few sentimental jun- iors decided to bring home a piece of the prom. Weeks of saving, shopping, and excitement ended. As the DJ packed up his equipment, the couples reluctantly left the Blue Hills Country Club. The prom had ended, but the weekend was just beginning. The limousines that arrived with nervous couples left with the real Class of ’87, loud, excited and ready to party. Some headed for Amy Nourse’s house. It seemed that everyone was invited there except you. Other couples opted for the traditional Chinese food. The Cathay Pacific was filled with pink, peach and blue gowns accompained by Mr. Tux specials. Once the fortune cookies had been read, it was off again since most of the limos had been rented until 2 AM. Marianne McCormack’s seemed the place to go. There was food, drinks and cable. What more could one want? Plans for the next day were being made over a bowl of Doritos. A breakfast invitation was announced by Patti Morrell and plans were set to meet in the Voc-Tech parking lot at 9 AM. After a couple of hours sleep, a home-cooked breakfast concocted by “Chef Scott Campbell and “Julia Childs” Gayle Morrell didn’t sound too appealing. It didn’t taste good either. The OJ was good! Nice try, guys! At 9 AM, some very groggy and grumpy juniors met behind the Tech and began the journey to Cape Cod. For some, like Jennifer Fay, it meant losing the group, driving 88 miles to the Sagamore Bridge and Friendly’s and a tiring ride home. For others, it was half a day of sun at the beach. Standing. L to R. are Gayle Morrell. Beth Vacca. Patti Morrell and Brenda Wolers Seated. I. to R. are James Dennis. Nick Drogonc. Valerie Feri and Debbie Thomson Obviously, this u«b one of the best tables at which to sit. It was hidden from the teacher's view. Having exhausted themselves by dancing through a half dozen rousing dance sets Michelle Hart and Steve Freel settled back down at their table for some rest That’s when we caught them in this mirror like pose, each holding their chin and upper lip. 7 « Even through the chairs were padded and comfortable. Ann DGuisto found it u os more romantic to be seated on David Hutchinson's lap During those limes when people found they wanted to get out of the croud for a while, this seemed to be the most common position taken by couples Doncmg amidst a group of female companions. Sherry Richards and Christine Reidy really strut their stuff and hove a great time dancing Both Sherry ond Tina must also be singing along with the record because some of their energy appears to be verbal photographs by Lincoln Studios and Mr Charles Gliniewicx with story by Jennifer Fay

Junior Prom 1987 Trying to hide in the center of the dance floor. Jennifer Fay obviously is enjoying the conversation provided by Vmme Norton The dance floor seemed so crowded at times that one often wondered if there was space to breathe, especially during the slow dance songs. Gathering just outside the door of the ballroom. Kim Parker. Donold Jones. Peter Plokey. and Kim King are forced(?) by the photographer to stand still and allow their photogroph to be taken. Actually, they were on their way to the restrooms, but we won't say that in print. Sneaking out into the middle of the dance floor to gel a picture of her friends tripping the fight fantastic, we managed to catch Laura Mullen with our camera Each couple brought at least one camera to catch a record of this wonderful night During a quiet moment. Suzanne Shea cuddled up with Marc Farrand at their table just off the dance floor. Suzanne had a difficult time trying to keep Marc out on the floor Maybe the real problem was the hoop that formed the hem of her gown. Maybe it uos Christine Cedrone's personality or perhaps it was the depth of her dimples, but Brian Keith was olitays there protecting her from the onslaught of other young men who wanted to dance with her They both wore the blue and white of Q H.S like many other couples photographs by Lincoln Studios and Mr. Chorfes Gfiniewiez
