"Through the Ages" is the theme of Winterfest Week, running Feb. 2-7. Students can get in the spirit with decade-themed
costume days and fun activities, not to mention Senator basketball.
Monday is dedicated to the 1920s and includes a "diner night" at Qdoba, where students receive 20 percent off. Tuesday celebrates the '50s, and an assembly is planned to rally school spirit before the home games against Damonte Ranch. Wednesday is '70s Day with a movie showing in the evening. Thursday is '80s Day and will include a tie-dye and Video Game Night. The theme for Friday is the '90s, though everyone should wear blue and white to Galena for the game. The Winterfest Dance, a semi-formal event, will be Saturday from 7-10 p.m.
