Although we spent five six-hour days in school, we found time to engage in our favorite activities. Whether we experienced good times during school hours or on weekends, we all knew that life was not all work and no play. 4s echos of “Hooray it’s Friday” linger in our minds we remember the Friday nights we spent watching a football game, a basketball game or a wrestling match. Many of us enjoyed cheering on our various athletic teams to victory or supporting them through an unexpected defeat. After Friday night games many of us drove over to MacDonald’s to sit around and chat with friends while grabbing a bite to eat. MacDonald’s was the place where we could always find out the score of a football game or a basketball game if for some reason we had missed it. Soc Hops were another enjoyable event and that usually took place after athletic contests. Several times during the year we stood outside in the cold checking to see if we had our mandatory activity cards. Once inside we boogied to the beat of the band. Some of us who did not care to dance enjoyed ourselves leaning against the walls, tapping our feet, nodding our heads or snapping our fingers to the music. Those of us who did not exactly enjoy the sports seethe could find a good party, legal or illegal, to satisfy our need to have a good time. On Friday afternoon information on parties, open or closed, could be found by those who were into the party scene. Many of us who enjoyed the outdoors used our weekends to retreat back to nature. Some of us enjoyed hiking in the mountains and camping in the open. Others of us found camping in our trailer, equipped with a TV, stove and all the other comforts of home, to be our weekend haven. Sure, we tried to cram our weekends from bottom to top with exciting activities but sometimes we took on more than we could handle. The good times inevitably spilled into the rest oj the week. During the weeknights many of us found enjoyment in watching our favorite TV programs. Tuesday nights we tuned the set to Channel 7 to watch “The Fonz” on “Happy Days”. On Thursday nights many oj us could be found watching “Babarino, Horshack, Epstieri, Boom Boom Washington and Mr. Hotter” on the new smash hit series “Welcome Back Hotter”. The good times were what helped bring smiles to our faces when the hassels of school, jobs or other everyday conflicts lowered our spirits. Not always the extravagant events we expected them to be, our good times also emerged from simple acts shared with a friend. 4s we look back, the memories of long hours spent on homework or research papers faded and it was those memories of the good times that will remain indelible. 10
