2004-05 MSSM Student Life Events -

October 29, 2004 - Presentation by Jim Patterson and Bonfire
Dr. Jim Patterson, a founder and the first director of MSSM, visits the school for dinner, a talk with students, and a bonfire.

December 11, 2004 - Caribbean Christmas
The lower lounge will be turned into a beach for an MSSM-style Christmas beach party. There will be sand, a tiny lagoon, lights, music, food and fun.

January 15, 2005 - The Official MSSM New Years Party
MSSM celebrates New Years on our own time! This was a costume party requiring each person to dress up as their favorite cartoon character, as well as speak and act like them.

March 19, 2005 - 2nd Annual Mystery Penguin Weekend
The general happenings will remain a mystery, but if it is anything like last year's event, it will be fantastic!

April 2005 - The "Big Trip"
This is now planned to be a trip to Six Flags amusement park near Springfield, MA. It will be the culmination of the 2004-05 MSSM school year, and a major reason to survive the Limestone winter.
