The Big Game

The class segued to the VFW to plan our next move. For some, that was the last move of the day.

Beginning the "what have you been doing for the last 5 years?" conversation on Friday rather than waiting until the Saturday night get-together was a fine idea.

The plan to meet at the game on the track near the west goal post failed miserably, but eventually a hearty group of Dragon fans more or less interested in football found each other on the track. Unable to find others, at least one discouraged classmate, it is now confirmed by outside sources, returned to the VFW where the afternoon party continued. Aside from the final score, the big disappointment was discovering that Pam Truman Dillavou's flaming-baton routine redux occurs two weeks hence. (October 19: Be there or be square)

OK, I think this proves that we were not totally attentive to the actual game.

Well, Norm, Cheryl, and Tom seem to be watching the action on the field.

The Homecoming Theme had something to do with cowboys. This gentleman with the rope was part of the half-time festivities.

Here's the Band. It seems a little schizophrenic at half-time since we co-op with Westmer for football. Our school song is played, then their school song is played. I think some of the girls with pom-poms may have been Warriors, not Dragons. The topic of consolidation is on the table and that is another story. But as we said in the invite to the Reunion, this may be our last 5-year reunion as Dragons.

(For those who are as behind the times as I am, United includes, among others, Alexis. But I saw no evidence of THE SHOE).
