BY INVITATION ONLY. 93 students attended our 1st school Leadership Retreat held at Camp Clements in Richmond this Fall. Very few years of our past can measure up to the 1982 school year at W.C. The students, the faculty and the administration, all contributed a little of themselves and so created an irreplaceable and unique enthusiasm on which to build precious and golden memories. The Student Leadership Retreat held in Richmond was our first and strongest building block. It consisted of faculty along with students who displayed leadership ability. The theme of the retreat was “School Spirit, and its result certainly speaks for itself. We brought back many new ideas as well as a unified attitude toward our school and the activities within. In addition to working as a unified group, many students peeked out of their shells just enough to show their individuality, and in some cases, courage. Mike Richardson produced, directed, and starred in a play The Cat and the Canary, while Rob Nance and his devo”-ted fans expressed their own ideas of entertainment. A few students excelled and displayed their abilities in leadership and scholarship while others ex- pressed their talent and individuality by exhibiting their differences. The spirit and atmosphere of such a year can never be duplicated nor can they be recaptured. Each new addition, each new idea, and each new face added another precious dimension to our school year, 1982. ABOVE. MR. SPEAKER.
