Parties were always fiin and there was one, it seemed, every nieht of the weekend. Steven Kolar even dressed up for a masquerade party. Dedicated to the weekend, every student has a place to go . . . whether it be a dance, the mall, a job, a favorite restaurant, or the park. When Friday finally rolled around, students created an atmosphere at school all their own. During the year, students took advantage of time on their own, when their presence was not required at school. The Drifters and the Emotions proved very popular to students dur- ing the year with their weekend dances being held at Riverside or Sun Valley. Another favorite dance spot was Schroeder Dance Hall, where the Texas Armadillo Band frequently played. If there wasn ' t a dance on a par- ticular weekend, and if the sun was shining, then the majority of students headed for the beach — Port Aransas and Padre Island being favorites. And when there was nothing to do, students filled their cars and trucks up with gas and friends and went cruisin ' the town. A popular place to shop and walk around wih friends was Victoria Mall. Mr. Gatti ' s remained the best pizza place in town (honest!) and overflowed with students after an in- town football game. Also taking im- portance on weekends were part-time jobs. More students than evre were striving to handle both school and a job. On Sundays, when students didn ' t have to work, Riverside Park was found to be the place to be to cruise through and see friends. Of course, there were all kinds of parties going on during the year and throughout the summer. Parties were held at friends ' houses and were always something to talk about on Monday. Century Bowling Lanes and the movie theatres were also favorite places for students to go and have plain good fun. On a special weekend, many students had the privilege and pleasure of hearing country singing star, George Strait, do a live performance at Sun Valley. For those who liked to keep fit, Tuff Stuff, the YMCA and The Workout were popular for weekend activities. Sports-oriented students preferred to go to the BMX track or go skateboarding or three-wheeling. And when homework was completed (and when it wasn ' t), somehow the reliable telephone made up for a bor- ing weeknight. Afer all, weeknights weren ' t meant to be exciting — weekends were! Ea crB I We ' wii s definitely in. Students and faculty alike joined aerobic, jazzer- cize and other fitness classes. Stephanie Collins attendea classes on a weekly basis. oivn Mini Mag
