re: Remember “field day” in the 80s?

Field day was by far the single best school day of the year

I think the last day rivaled it. Clean out your locker and no homework. People tried crazy stuff thinking there would be no consequences... which was fun to watch.

I remember having a stack of different colored ribbons from field day. Maybe the potato sack races.

I don’t remember a field day but in Jr. High we all got a turn shooting at skeet behind Evergreen Jr. High. That was the highlight of the year. Can’t even imagine the reactions to that kind of thing these days.
