1. Brave  Aid profits benefit local  Foundation

As each seat in the auditorium fills up, more and more money is put toward a good cause.

Brave Aid is a school sponsored talent show that provides an opportunity for students to showcase their talents in front of a filled auditorium. All proceeds went to the Always Wear Your Seatbelt Foundation. Tickets were $7 in advance and $10 at the door.

“It was a great way to get the club’s name out and raise money for the scholarships that the foundation gives out,” sophomore Christopher Caplan said.

The Always Wear Your Seatbelt Foundation was created by Eddie Culberhouse’s mother, Lorisse Garcia, and Laura Grant’s mother, Wendy Grant, after their deaths in a car accident. This foundation helps to raise awareness about the importance of wearing one’s seatbelt when riding in a motor vehicle.

Sophomore president Madison Nagle and sophomore vice president Christopher Caplan started the The Always Wear Your Seatbelt Club to raise awareness on campus.

At Brave Aid, 22 acts performed. The acts ranged from solo singing acts, to Orange Swag which is a rap duo, to the Bollywood Club. The Bollywood Club performs traditional style Middle Eastern dancing.

“It just goes to show that we have a lot of supporters in our community,” Caplan said.

2.  ‘Dracula’ keeps the blood pumping

The drama department performed Bram Stoker’s Dracula from Oct. 20-22.

In Dracula, Abram Van Helsing, played by senior Jackson Upperco, and his confidants make it their mission to hunt down and kill the  King of Vampires himself, Count Dracula. Dracula, played by junior Caleb Roche, uses his supernatural powers in an attempt to evade his pursuers.

Senior Angel Lozada played Jonathan Harker, a lawyer who joins Van Helsing to slay Count Dracula.

“My favorite scene would have to be Harker’s Recollection because of all the lighting affects, the haze, and the aspect of going back to the past made it real to me,” Lozada said.
