"The Ride of Our Lives"

ST. GEORGE - High School students are young, naive, stay up late, and most of all they are full of energy; they need a release. Where else would they rather put that energy besides Sadies?


Sadies, The Ride of our Lives, was a theme that pulled people into it with all of it’s attractions. Music filled the Dixie Plaza while people danced, took photo booth pictures, visited the kissing booth, and much more.


Student’s day dates were fun no matter what they did including going to the movies, roller skating, bowling in Mesquite, hiking, skim boarding, or doing a scavenger hunt. “It was fun! Only ‘cause of the people we had in our group,” Shaylee Niel, a junior, said. No matter what they did for their day dates, they never would’ve known what was waiting for them at the dance.



No school could compete with the Sadies Dixie High School throws. Even people from other schools were agreeing that they never throw dances like the ones we throw. “We don’t have lights and music like here, but we actually dance!” Braden, a senior at Pineview, exclaimed as he and many others enjoyed the carnival atmosphere.


The Flyers are full of Dixie spirit, and even if other schools may be good at a lot of things, there’s one thing they could never compete with: the energy the students bring to dances and to the dance floor.


This was a night worth remembering and never forgetting; the theme of Sadies fitting the mood of the atmosphere perfectly.
