Saturday, June 1, 1968, was packed with Senior Week activities. Started off with brunch in McElroy Commons, followed by the Boston Pops Orchestra (with Arthur Fiedler!) in the acoustically wonderful Roberts Center, and then wrapped up with a night at the King Philip in Wrentham.
Tickets to the Pops appearance cost $2.50, while brunch clicked in at $3.25 per person.
The event at King Philip added a previously missing element: parents! Parents of members of the class were invited to attend. They and classmates danced to the “Father’s Mustache Banjo Band” from 8 pm to 1 am, for $3 per person.
Did you go to any of these? Any memories, recollections to share?
Here’s a gallery of photos taken on that busy Saturday and published in the spring supplement to the 1968 Sub Turri. If you have identifications for people in the photos, please let me know.
