After the discos, students went to McDonald’s a regular hangout, to “check out” the opposite sex as well as the burgers. McDonald’s was the perfect place for a romantic conver- sation or a light meal. Looking for fun and excitement, they also spent much of their time at “Flippers”’, playing pinball with the gang, or at Wintergreen, to s ki down the snow covered mountains.

Looking for fun and excitement Preps were in, and disco styles faded away. Slowly but surely the fashions were changing. Now instead of disco skirts and matching tops, girls were wearing tight skirts with “sexy slits”! The guys wore monogramed sweat- ers with button down collars. They became more concerned with the la- test styles, as well as the girls. The music even changed. Some of the favorites included, ““My Shar- Donna Summer, and Don’t Stop til You Get Enough”, by Michael Jack- son. Some of the popular sentimental songs included “Reunited”, by Peaches and Herb, and “Sail On”, by the Commodores. These songs and many more made unforgetable memories for all the couples in love. There were even some strange songs that became popular, like, “Pop Mu- sik”, by ‘““M”’, and “Pina Colada’”’, by Rupert Homes. ona’’, by The Knack, “Bad Girls’, by NNN NNN isitestsu The disco music of getting down, lin- gered through the school on Friday nights after the basketball games. Students filled the gym moving to the groove as the smashing hits shook the building. Everyone moved to the beat, in their own way, creat- ing a distingused rhythum of origi- nality. As the discos ended, the disco fever cooled down, but the singing, dancing and laughing, kept everyone together.
