The dance and carnival were put together to raise money for school clubs and organizations. About 30 booths were set up by clubs at the carnival, held from 7- - 9 p.m. in the ballroom of the Gardner Student Center. The Rebelettes sung on the Karaoke machine to the song, "These Feet Were Made For Walking." They were not at all embarrassed. A few of them were even dancing along with the song. With a little effort, some basketball fans made some hoops shooting baskets. Others tried to throw a nerf football through an old tire. Linzi Kidman, in charge of the general activities at Dixie College, jumped with joy when he made it through the hole of the tire. A favorite booth of the guys was the Rebelette kissing booth. One of the Rebelettes said some guys were hesitant to give them a kiss. But others were brave enough to just go for it. "I thought it was pretty fun," Jerusha Harding said. "There wasn't really enough room in the ballroom to do a carnival but I thought it was a good idea and they had a lot of fun booths." Greta Nelson, another carnival lover, said," Karaoke was the best!"
