This group of talented musicians included the Wisdom Pep Band, and even some of our own staff members. The teochers involved with various instruments included Mr. Workman, Miss Dionne, Mrs. Foster, and Mrs. Lobbe. The highlight of the performance came with some surprising guests on some even more surprising instruments. Mr. Michaud played the blender, Mrs. Labbe played the hair dryer, and Mr. Bouchard himself mode a special appearance with his vacuum cleaner. All in all, the performance was thoroughly enjoyed by all, and we look forward to many more marvelous performances. FREE FARE The Drama class presented a delightful comedy in three octs this year. The play HARVEY is about a pooka in the form of a large, white, and invisible rabbit, and his friend Elwood P. Dowd. The play was directed by Mrs. Lynn Owen. The cast included Denise Martin, Kelly Cyr, Scott LaVertu, Karie Michaud, Robin Bernier, Donno Pelletier, Andrew Couture, Ed Latham, Doug Guerrette, Karen Hebert, Debbie Sirois, and Jessica Clark, who made a surprise appearance as Harvey in the final scene. Thursday morning finally arrived, and WHS students poured out of their classrooms into the gym, anxiously awaiting the arrival of Free Fare. This group had come all the way from St. Petersburg, Florida, performing benefit concerts ond touring U.S. high schools. With its singing and upbeat skits, the group brought delight and laughter to audiences everywhere. But this was not just another pretty band! In fact, the group's main purpose was to warn students about harmful drugs and alcohol, while playing popular music to entertain. The band, made up of five guys, was not only an inspiration, but was also an entertaining way to relieve the doy-to-day stress of school. Judging from the applause and cheers. Free Fare seemed to have thrilled Wisdom students. HARVEY
