Scrapbook 2- Senior Year
To everything there is a season and a time to every purpose under
heaven."
A time to be enthusiastic at pep assemblies and other functions
that generate spirit.
A time to incorporate new ideas, like showing movies at Regalia
Ball and initiating Student Corps.
A time to take advantage of opportunities like the activity period
and a chance to avoid final exams.
A time to be involved in clubs, sports and other activities that
round out an education.
A time to be responsible, adopting to the no-bell system and using
independent study booths.
A time to feel relaxed when talking to teachers and administrators
who used to seem distant and impersonal.
A time to be well acquainted with Groves.
A time to be the first Senior Class to witness Groves' defeat of
Seaholm in football.
A time to start applying to college.
A time to look forward to making new friends.
Finally, a time to reach graduation.

In addition to Denny McLain Night, the band marched to his house
and played music during 4th hour.
Interesting Memory: During Denny McLain Night, as Band Historian,
I remember asking Denny McLain for his autograph so that I could put
it into the Groves Band Scrapbook. At first he tried to brush
me off. Then with much resistance, he grudgingly complied. Here
I was in my band uniform, we had just finished performing a concert
for him, and that how he treated a band member! I guess it's
true: "What goes around, comes around." By the way, I have no
idea where the autograph or scrapbook ended up. |
