On Saturday evening, there was a teen dance at Hampton Community, sponsored by lire Sea Scouts of the 1st Hampton band. Actually, I guess they shouldn't label it as a teen dance because there was a group of eight year olds there. Personally, I don't think it is proper. There is a big difference between eight years ' and the suggested limit of eleven. It did kind of put a damper on things for the older people. Nonetheless, everyone seemed to enjoy themselves. themselves. The dance ran from seven to eleven p.m. There were numerous spot dance prizes. A special thank- you to Jim and Alice Walruff for their help in chaperoning. Keep in mind the next dance will be Saturday, Saturday, April 25th.
