Some people did not like the theme as much as others. Junior Nicki Daly said, Toga was fun, but I would have liked Western better. The decorations also added to the atmosphere of the evening.

At the Variety Show on Thursday, students were thrilled by stunt biking and were surprised by a faculty band.
