Friday, July 24

Team songs were an integral part of Lenore's Color War. And though each summer brought a crop of new tunes, there was always a core of long-standing "oldies." I'm not sure if any of us knew how old some of these songs were. They just were part of the enormous canon of lyrics that we learned. Since this date in 1959 was designated for Team Games, I thought I'd print two "classics":

White Team:
Though we all come from different locations
We march as a team that is one
Like a tiny United Nations
Together in work and in fun
United we will face the foe and meet the demand
As one, forever Lenore Senior White Team will stand

Green Team:
We come, we come, a team of Vic'try
White Team make way!
Green stands for glory
We will win the fray!
We come, we come a team of Vic'try
Ready for a fight
So give a cheer for our Green Team
Cause we're all right!
