Marcy (Pomerantz) DiCaro reports: "I came across these photos my mom took of the All Girl Review – Ode to Walt Disney – I’ve copied the program part of our skit #12 that won first place. Of course it was the just the beginning of my illustrious career as a director (NOT). It seems that most of our cast members will be at the reunion – care to do it again? Anyway, enjoy."
Linda McCafferty Dixon came up with these...

area showing snow-capped Mt. Baldy in the background and the San
Bernardino Freeway in the foreground. The mountains, ocean or desert
are all within a convenient distance, only minutes away over modern
freeways and highways." Only a few orange groves are left and these
