Who: Open to teens
When: Night, Saturday, Nov 18
Where: the beach
Status: Open, in progress

The bonfire was still on, despite the drama at the dance, moving it to a new location with a few less people, and maybe a little bit of beer. It acted as a bit of an after party, with the dance ending early enough that no one was ready to go home, if that's where they were planning on going, and gave everyone a chance to chill, which felt appropriate considering the weather. Even with the fire blazing, it was cold and most everyone had blankets to wrap around themselves in addition to their jackets. Music played in the background from a bluetooth stereo while the teens talked and cooked s'mores, taking advantage of the last time this season that staying out late in the cold might be fun.

Who: Open to teens and staff attending the Sadie Hawkins Dance
When: Saturday, November 18th, evening
Where: the high school gymnasium
Status: open, ongoing

The Sadie Hawkins Dance was never intended to be overly formal, and the decorations in the gym reflected that. There were some streamers and balloons -- all in the school colors -- and the DJ had his booth set up, but the general vibe was more casual than Homecoming was or prom would eventually be. There was a table set up along one wall with sweet snacks and waters and a large punch bowl surrounded by plastic cups. Despite the humble decor, the music was upbeat and the atmosphere was festive, the gym ready to host a group of teenagers ready to dance and have fun ... and the chaperones who were present and ready to make sure the fun didn’t get out of hand.

At least that was the idea. After 7pm however, those attendees who drank the punch started having a whole different, much more intense kind of fun ...
