Halloween: An Exciting Evening at Salem Numerous events took place on campus as Halloween blew in like a witch on her broom. The Epicure Staff dressed up in full costume and prepared a special Halloween dinner of anything a witch could ever want: pizza, deli sandwiches, Halloween cake, and many other treats. Students and staff alike dressed up for the festivities. This year, the Off-Campus Association sponsored a haunted house and a Halloween party. The day student center was the site for this frightful house. Refreshments such as ghostly green punch, brownies, and candy were served after- wards for the survivors of the haunted house.

Parents and Daughters Share a Special Weekend Parents ' Weekend this year was a huge success. It was held from November 1-3, beginning on Friday afternoon with the parents ' registration for the weekend. Dinner was served in the refectory, followed by Lantern Tours through Old Salem and the College. Saturday morning, the Litzenburg ' s hosted a reception at their home, giving the parents a chance to meet and get to know our president and his family, and to see what a unique and special relationship they have with our school. The parents then had an opportunity to watch students perform a synchronized swimming program, a school volleyball tournament, and attend a forum of mock classes. A deli- cious candlelight dinner was served in the refectory. After-dinner entertainment in- cluded a preview of the Pierettes ' produc- tion of The Boyfriend , and a program of Salem Through the Centuries ' . Sunday ended the weekend with a Moravian Lovefeast Service and a wonderful brunch in the refectory.

Thanksgiving with the Spongetones On Saturday, November 2.3, Salem got a groovy dose of the ' 60s when the Spongetones came to town for our Thanksgiving mixer. The Spongetones, a Charlotte-based band, put on an exciting show with their renditions of ' 60s favorites like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Monkees, and Herman ' s Hermits, as well as their own tunes. The Turkey Tango was held at the Home Environment building at the Dixie Classic Fairgrounds. The combination of the Spongetones and over a hundred S alem students and their dates turned the cold, bare warehouse into a party to be remembered. , «MfB (upper right) The hit of the evening, the Spongetones: Greg James, Pat Walters, Jamie Hoover, and Rob Thorne.
