Thursday night is the Seniors’ night for minor mayhem and good clean fun…a chance to prank the staff and chaperons and to create a little artwork…
The aftermath…
Wasn’t Mr. A’s Jeep gray yesterday?
Unfortunately the night’s big prank didn’t lend itself to photos but picture in your mind…a string tied to the Sink’s dorm room door…the other end tied to the radio antenna on their car which has been moved from the spot they parked it in to another spot 300 to 400 yards away.
Now the string will lead them to the car but it takes a round-about, cross-country path around a couple of buildings, weaving around trees, across the tennis courts and across a few streets over a distance of about half a mile to get there. Little did we know at the time that the car would end up parked next to a sprinkler head which would be running when the Sinks went to find and reclaim their car…guess we got a little unexpected bonus with that one…

Thursday night is traditionally skit night. Freshmen and rookies are required to participate in a skit and everyone is encouraged to perform. Some are almost impromptu and some have been well rehearsed. Hopefully we’ll be able to put up some video clips in the near future…for now a few dark photos will have to do…

Each of the kids’ dorm rooms has a sign on their door with the names of the kids assigned to each room and their chaperon. The plan was to switch the signs around to try to get the underclassmen to go to the wrong room. Probably would have been a better prank to pull on Monday but it still got a few folks…
Sorry…no photo for this one
