THE DALLAS POST—THURSDAY, AUGUST 22, 1963
Dallas High School Keyettes
Participate In Many Events
by Jane Harter and Peggy Jordan
The Keyettes of Dallas Senior High Schoolhavehad a very
successful year. Our first and biggest parade was in January
at Harrisburg. Where we marched in the Inaugural Parade.
For many of our Seniors this was the last parade.
After this parade webegan to pre-
pare for the summer parades which
included Nanticoke. We had been
in competition in this paradefor the
past three years, and have won first
Week In Nassau
(Continued from page 2)
On Tuesday we went on a tour
of the Bahama Islands in a huge
sail boat. We stopped at Paradise
Island, which a man recently pur-
chased for $18,000,000, and swam
at one of its beautiful beaches.
Afterwards we shopped atthestraw
markets and then went back to the
hotel for another swim. That night
the hotel had a barbecue and after-
wards there were twist and limbo
contests, but the prizes were bottles
of wine so Sheryl and I weren’t al-
lowed to enter.
On Wednesday we shopped all
day for presents to take back with
us. We did most of our buying in
the straw markets because every-
thing else in the stores were im-
ported from the states and we could
get them anywhere around here.
That night we used the hotel’s ex-
change service and ate at another
hotel. When we arrived we found
that it was barbecue night at that
hotel, so we sat down to another
meal of barbecued chicken!
Thursday was almost entirely
devoted to swimming, although we
did go into town to do the last of
our shopping.
On Friday we packed and went
swimming for the last time. We
left Nassau at 2 O’clock and ar-
rived at Idlewild at 5:50, having
only 10 minutes to go through im-
migration, customs, and run for
the helicopter. Well, we gotthrough
customs in a few seconds, but our
luggage was the last off the plane

a
come in and arrange for a

prize for all three parades which re-
sulted in winning a beautiful
trophy.
The Keyettes followed this parade
with observance of Memorial Day
joining with other marching units.
After this parade came the two
Wilkes-Barre parades June 15th
and June 16th. We arealways glad
to attend these local parades.
The biggest parade of the year
was at Wellsboro. Along with our
trip to Wellsboro we visited the
Little Grand Canyon of Pennsyl-
vania, and from here we preceeded
to the parade.
Following the Wellsboro trip
came the Wilkes-Barre Firemen’s
Parade in which we were given a
very nice welcome. We then pa-
raded in Duryea which was
climaxed by a Fair enjoyed by all
even though it rained hard.
A Fair also followed the Moosic
Parade in which people seemed to
enjoy themselves.
Our annual Keyette-Key Club
picnic was given by Tex and Jean
Wilson following the Moosic Pa-
rade. It was held at their lake on
DeMunds Road. Everyone looked
forward to this picnic.
We marched in Taylor, on
August 15, which concluded our
summer schedule of parades.
The fall schedule will consist of
more parades and practices and we
hope to win more awards.
Keyette Club officers are:
Captain— Beverly Eck, President —
Susan Cheney, Vice-President—
Ann Woolbert, Secretary —Jean
Fleming, Treasurer — Diane Pope,
Sergeant-at-arms—Carole Meyers.
so we missed the 6 o’clock heli-
copter. We also missed the next
one at 6:30, so we had to wait for
the 6:55 one. This greatly disturbed
us because our planeleftat7 o’clock
and the helicopter ride took 15
minutes!
We finally made it on a helicopter,
but as we were landing, right next
to us was our plane —taking off!
We inquired at the desk and found
that the next flight for Avoca left
the next morning and as wehad no
intentions of staying a night in
Newark we contacted the bus term-
inal and in 45 minutes we were on
our way home. We arrived in
Wilkes-Barre 3% hours later, feel-
ing very disgusted at the ticket
agent who had made such a close
connection for us between Idlewild
and Newark.
Dallas Key Club
(Continued from page 2)
Then, onthe week-end of April 17th,
a relatively large percentage of the
club will attend this year’s State
Convention.
Early in June, Clyde Birth gen-
erously allows the club to hold its
car wash at his station. All profits
for the entire day are donated by
Mr. Birth to the Dallas Key Club.
All minor work is conducted by
club members assisted by the Key-
ettes.
Also in June, the Key Club helps
select a queen for each of thefollow-
ing two occasions —the Flaming
Foliage Festival at Renova, and
the Laurel Festival at Wellsboro.
This coming year, the club plans
to hold a Recognition Night in
honor of all Key Club Marching
Unit assistants. These people gen-
erously devote much of their time
to these groups and their efforts are
very much appreciated. The Key
Club will also try to assist needy
students as it has in the past.
School closes in mid-June, but
the Key Club goes marching on
throughout the summer.
Post-school activities include
helping the Little League Farm
League. Interested members of the
club help these vigorous young
“Micky Mantles’ by coaching
them, serving as umpires, and most
of all, encouraging them.
Next year, the club hopes to send
one or two members to the Interna-
tional Convention to be held in
Dallas, Texas, in July. This would
be a fine experience and would
greatly benefit the Dallas Club.
Also in July, the club takes on
one of its largest community pro-
jects —that of helping erect (and
afterward “‘de-erect’’) the Back
Mountain Library Auction. Many
man-hours are spent on this task
over a period of one full month.
Soon after, in August, both Key
Club and Keyettes spend a fullday
frolicking over the picnic grounds
of Mr. and Mrs. Tex Wilson in the
annual summer outing. All mem-
bers are thankful for the Wilson’s
generousity and a good time is ex-
perienced by all.
Incidental to the basic work of
the Key Club, is its support of a
Drill Team. This team marches in
parades throughout the year in
both community and civic affairs.
Appearances number approxi-
mately fifteen to twenty per year.
This year, a choice color guard
will perform at the District Conven-
tion in Philadelphia.
These are the Dallas Key Club’s :
projected plans; they aremany, but
will all be fulfilled. This organiza-
tion is not simply a bunch of boys
out for fun”; they are serious in
their work, carry out their projects
with interest, and are looking for-
ward to another year of great
achievement.
