On December 12th, Link Crew hosted a freshman Christmas party in the cafeteria where the freshman could drink hot cocoa, decorate ornaments, eat some cookies, watch a movie, and participate in the Whitney Houston drum challenge. The drum challenge was a big hit with the freshman, literally. The Link Crew members borrowed the bass drum from the band room to use in the drum challenge where the freshman had to hit the bass drum on the beat to Whitney Houston’s song “I Will Always Love You.” The freshman hit the drum on beat, or closest to the beat, wins the challenge.
“It felt really good and the band classes came in handy for counting,” Challenge winner Ashley Rissman said.
After the challenge took place and the freshman began to finish painting ornaments, the Link Crew moved the freshman to one of the classrooms to wind down and watch “The Christmas Chronicles.”
“I think it was great that the freshman came out and celebrated Christmas with us,” Link leader Alissa Grimes said.
