A Barrage Of Activities Breaks the Daily Routine Attending six classes a day, five days a week for thirty- six weeks would appear to be a schedule that few could enjoy, but student life at Thomas Dale is enjoyed, and the daily routine seldom seems monotonous. The weeks of ' 66 were filled with contests, club work, and campaigns. Skits and play previews at activities period were welcomed as relief from hours of studying. Hootenannies in the cafeteria and a helicopter landing on the front lawn were far from conducive to boredom. In fact, there was never a dull moment at Thomas Dale; would you believe hardly ever?

Officer Cunningham and other policemen direct traffic after school. Willie Howlett aids in the daily care of TD ' s new shrubs. Steve Lohr views the new Chester Library which was built with funds donated by area residents. Student activities are not confined to club work within the school. Students participate in service projects in the com- munity, and the community in turn takes an active interest in school life. A community center built by the Chester Junior Cham- ber of Commerce provides a place for dances given by student groups, and the completion of a new library will complement the facilities at Thomas Dale. Noticing a need for landscaping, the Chester Garden Club donated shrubs to improve the appearance of the school. Chester- field County police men and women assisted students by directing traffic before and after school. Thus, the school and the community receive mutual benefits by working together. 13
