But there are other remem- brances that are common to almost every member of the Senior Class. Remember our Freshman Candy Sale - our first and greatest money making activity? Remember those assemblies - and Mr. Whalen's little jokes”? Remember the night we got our rings? Remember Inter-Class games? Remember 1967 - Our Basketball team became the champions of the Central Hudson Valley League? And in 1968 when they did it again? Remember all those dances we sponsored? Remember the four years we par- ticipated in Moving-Up Days? Remember the two Junior-Senior Banquets - one as a host and one as a guest? Remember our Junior Prom? Remember the Senior Lounge?
