PROM 1973 REFLECTIONS

Prom is this weekend at CCHS and it made me stop to think about our prom of 1973.....and boy have things changed. 

"Reflections" was the theme for the 1973 Junior-Senior Prom.  Once again the junior class worked hard to earn the money to pay for the prom.  The juniors sponsored the refreshment stand at the football and basketball games.  They faced a problem decorating this year. 

Thanks to all Class of 1974...great job!

The dance was held in the commons, so the kids had to wait till Friday after school to start decorating.  The decorations included a mirror entrance and a reflecting pond in the center.  Many couples enjoyed the "Spoon River" band from St. Louis.  The sophomore girls helped served the cookies and punch prepared by the junior class.

OR WAS THAT SPIKED PUNCH THAT WAS SERVED?

Is that Dickie Douglas doing the "dirty"!

ROQUE COURT WORK DAY

Class of 73 took advantage of the great weather we have April 3!  We had our work day at the Clinton Roque Court Peace Park Project.  Getting it ready for spring work.  Lots of dirt moved, leveled and garbage picked up.

COME THRU WITH THIS AND WHAT A STORY IT WILL MAKE.

Thanks classmates for your hardwork.
