wond rlancl t 0 The Brass Band was featured during the annual Christmas Aud. During A Cappella 's presentation of The Twelve Days of Christmas , four members stereotyped the stupid soph- omores . Mr. Cervantes, Mr. Holzwarth, Mr. DeReus, and Mr. May poked fun at Mr. Lilly and received many laughs from the students. hrl tmasg wint r Even without the snow on the ground, the Christmas spirit was still in the air. As the days Went by. and that long awaited day came closer. people were busy getting ready for the night when Santa Claus would come down their chimney. Christmas trees disap- peared from the stores and lots, and went up in people's houses with decorations and tinsel. A person driving or walking at night could see the bright, colorful lights, trees in windows, and they knew that Christmas was well on its way. Christmas had different mean- ings for different people. To kids it meant singing carols, decorat- ing trees, and opening presents on the morning of December 25. To some parents, it meant spending money, waiting in line to take their kids to see Santa Claus, making cookies for parties at school, and seeing the exci- tement their kids had on Christ- mas morning. To others Christ- mas meant celebrating the birth of Christ. No matter how old a person is, or what their personali- ty is, everyone got something out of Christmas.
