Spirit Day Through the perseverance of the Weston community and careful planning. Spirit Day united the town in celebrating “Weston.” On this sunny fall day, Weston residents of all ages took part in a variety of activities, including a “Moon Walk,” pie baking contests and field events. It seemed that there was something for everyone, from a road race for kids, to an exciting parachute jump which captured everyone’s attention. As in past townwide events, the High School played an integral role in making Spirit Day a success. Some high school kids carved pump¬ kins, ran in the road race and dressed up as clowns, while individual classes, aided by Student Council volunteers, provided refreshments for the day. In addition. High School students enjoyed participating in the events and visiting the numerous booths and exhibits. Weston can look back on Spirit Day as a united effort by Town Residents and the High School to provide a day of fun and excitement f or all of Weston. Weston students helped to make Spirit Day an in¬ credible success! □ Allen Wang ABOVE: Karin Bonner paints a rainbow on someone’s face as Caity McLaughlin observes the artist at work.

BELOW: Observers, David Kohn and Terry London watch as Weston football players defeat their opponents. No More Home Games Due to the construction on the new track and football field, the 1987 football team was forced to move its home games to Wayland for the season. This rearrangement was hard on the team because many of the senior players lost the chance to play on their own field during their last year at Weston. It was also difficult for the team to play without the support of their own fans. Fortunately, many Wildcat supporters followed their team to Wayland in order to cheer them on. The Senior concession stand also moved and helped boost the Weston spirit. Because the football team sacrificed their home games, the new track, which promises to be one of the fastest in the state, will be ready for use in the spring. Next fall, life will have returned to normal with a home field for the football team, and a track for the runners. In the meantime, the field has been out of use except for when it doubled as an emergency airstrip. One of the year’s most memorable occur¬ rences, the crash landing and near miss of the new track was an event which will be long remembered. □ Erika Meyer FAR LEFT: Construction is underway around the Weston foot¬ ball field.
