While cleaning out the house (we are moving FROM) the other day, I found these in the back of the closet!
Anyone remember Senior Cords?
You going to admit it if you do!!!!!

Sorry but I have had to turn word verification back on. I don't like it but I keep getting SPAM. I wish people would spend their time, energy, and brains doing good. Think what a great world we would have if they did! I love reading your comments and will answer them on my blog.
I hope you have a wonderful day,
Cindy

ReplyDeleteHaven't heard of them, but wow, how fab are they!!! Time to restart a trend I think! x
ReplyDeleteSo cool! xx
ReplyDeleteThese are new to me but very cool!Hugs,Jen
ReplyDeleteBelieve it or not, yes I do. It might be a midwest thing back in the 70s. But, my question is how do you still have your's.....lol...
ReplyDeleteSeriously, did you draw and paint on your cords? Those are so cool!
ReplyDeleteWell I graduated right down the road from you in "76" but I do not remember Sr Cords. But I do remember some Sr. Streakers! lol.
ReplyDeleteCindy, Could you imagine what kids would put on their cords these days??? It would be scary...cause I remember how some boys would push the envelope way back when. Smiles, Susie
ReplyDeleteActually, I remember back in 1976, my Senior Year in High School, my Mom told me about Senior Cords. And just a handful of us made them. We would wear them in cheerblock, but since we didn't conform to the cheerblock uniform, we had to sit in the back! My Mom's era though, they all had them. Now, to answer some questions...I did not paint those. A friend of mine did and we are still friends today. He's actually a high school buddy of my husbands. Hi Kate! Nice to see you again, it's been awhile. I still have them because they always get stored in the back of a closet and get brought out whenever I move. Sigh...if only I were still that small! Brenda, I remember streakers too!!! Ha ha ha I forgot about them though! Susie, I'd be afraid to think what they'd put on them, but I imagine they'd be hanging off of their butt and they'd be pulling them up every time they took a step. Scary! Have a good day everyone.

ReplyDeleteI graduated from Logansport in '72 and Senior cords were still popular but fading.
For our 35 th reunion I did research and found that cords are an Indiana tradition thought to have been started at Purdue or IU. I can't site my sources but that's what I recall.
I think that they were really popular in the 50s and 60s
ReplyDeleteBest wishes! I now live in Indianapolis.
