Dances Promote Festive To many people throughout the world, holidays are synonymous with decorations, candy, flowers, and gifts. To many VHS stu- dents, however, holidays also were synony- mous with semi-formal dances. On Saturday, December 13, 210 couples were able to stroll down New York City’s Time’s Square and Broadway. The dance, “Christmas on Broadway,” was sponsored by Student Council. “Although the dance turned out pretty good, I was disappointed with decorating. Only one-fourth of the club helped,” said se- nior Mary Bielich, Student Council presi- dent. Music by 3-D blared in the north balco- ny, pictures were taken by Dennis Crane, and students sat on “Santa’s” (social stud- ies teacher Sid Reggie) lap and told him what they wanted for Christmas. After the excitement of Christmas spirit ended, interest focused on the King of Hearts dance, “Fortress Around Your Heart,” which occurred on Saturday, Febru- ary 28. Tickets were $6 per couple. Mrs. Kar- en Hartman, V-teens sponsor, added that the funds raised from the dance were desig- nated for a specific purpose. “The money was donated to the Porter County Heart As- sociation.” she said. Ordinarily guys are the ones who buy dance tickets and pay for dinner. However, roles were reversed at this dance, and the girls experienced the joys and heartaches of a guy’s role. To end the King of Hearts dance, Mike Barone was crowned King while Jeff Leffew was named Prince. Though not as tangible as other items used in promoting the holiday seasons, VHS students agreed that these dances truly served to lift holiday spirits. by Lori Sier holiday SOPHOMORE TARA FIFIELD and senior David Doelling sway to music played by 3-D at the Christmas dance.
