Best memory of Junior Company or Good Company Players:

Carpooling and parties...

The carpools - singing in the car (making up harmony parts to "White Christmas" no matter what time of year it was, putting every street name in a song); "Chinese firedrills" during 23-second red lights; tap dancing at Baskin Robbins on the way home.

The parties - New Year's Eve at Audra and Alison's playing Truth or Dare; rafting at Shandon's; tormenting the younger juniors at Mellanie's Cabbage Patch Kids party; the triple birthday party at
Farrell's for Ann, Shannon and Julie.
