Bonfire sparks Homecoming spirit The fail sports festival marked the return of traditional Homecoming activities which had been lacking in recent years. Under the slogan Waz-At-A-Trojan?” students rallied to show their support and enthusiasm for the fall sports teams. A coronation ceremony held on Tuesday. October 2 included the crowning of a king as well as the traditional queen. Steve Cross and Dianne Chandler reigned over the week's activities. New events added to the year's celebration were a bonfire and a parade. A brat fry held the evening of the bonfire and a live band providing entertainment resulted in a tremendous turnout of fans. Student floats, various pep groups, and the Marching Band made up the bulk of the parade. Additional events included grub, dress-up, T-shirt, hat. and Blue and Gold days and also a treasure hunt and car show. The battle on the football field proved to be a disappointment for the Robins as the Wayzata Trojans outfought them 28-8. The dance held in the cafeteria Friday night culminated the fall festivities with a DJ from Midwest Disco providing the patter and platters for the spirited Robins. Above.
