What did you letter in?

[Principessa]

Last night I was doing some spring cleaning and came across a box of old stuff, pictures, ticket stubs, mementos, and my varsity letters. Talk about a tidal wave of happy memories!

I lettered in Choir and Flag Twirling (tall flags)

So, how many of you lettered in high school? In what activity did you letter?

Is lettering a posh way of pronouncing littering....:tongue:

 

[DC_DEEP]

At my school, they only awarded letters in athletics.

My honors and awards were in music and general academics.

We get awards in Canada, but I "lettered" in track, choir, drama, volleyball, badminton and debate.

Don't be too impressed though, it was a small school:redface:

 

[D_Ted Riding Hooded]

'lettering'??? Mmmmm...A new one on me!! If my old school gave them out I think the two they'd give me would be 'F' and 'O'.....:tongue:
But I blame Thatcher for taking my milk away!!

Procrastination....

 

[IntoxicatingToxin]

I lettered in nothing. But if I had to make up something, I would say I lettered in note-writing during class.

 

[HazelGod]

Football, swimming, diving, Lincoln/Douglas debate, and Future Problem Solving.

At least, those were the ones represented on my jacket. People from my school might tell you I lettered in the Drill Team, too...just not in the manner they gave patches for. :wink:

We did not letter in the Arts but I received awardsand scholarships in Art ,Vocal Music, Drama. I also wrote and performed on the piano the class song.

 

[sdg475]

Only athletics got letters at my school, but they include marching band/cheerleading in that. I lettered in XC (dual sported one fall, it sucked), Soccer all 4 years, Swimming (did it one year, not my favorite), and Track all 4.

Glad to be done with coaches and organization. Now I can do local races and soccer tournaments with friends whenever I want, not when I have to.

 

[Love-it]

Cross country and track. It was a start on learning how to be social, before that all I had was a pocket protector and a slide rule.

Hey, I still have my slide rule<g>. I was a computer geek when computers were room sized and modems sent 300 baud<g>.

Pussy! Thats the only thing i was any good at. In those early years i somehow in between burning braincells and becoming a father at age 16 tought myself piano and sing somewhat. I was born with a musical ear and basically can play anything after i figure the timing out. I have a Roland and a Chamberlain. :smile:
