The crowds came . . . despite wtnd, rain, and snow ' . . . overcrowd- ing the football G. stadium . . . and lining the end zones. Attendance was at a peak for basketball games . . . fans lined the auditorium walls when all the seats were taken. For the players, the desire to compete was mighty . . . whether the foe was a long-time rival . . . or a basketball team in girls' intramurals. Sports were teamwork and the key to teamwork lay in spirit Squads worked week after week to win for their school.

A school bus was purchased to transport CHS teams to away matches. The board also acquired a punching bag in order that boys' physical education classes might learn boxing fundamentals. This year, as in previous years, the board helped to defray the cost of the cheerleader workshop camp at Valley Vista for Elk cheerleaders. In addition, they re- paired the press box which collapsed in February. Through these purchases and other efforts the Athletic Board provided the student body with an opportunity to participate in interscholastic competition. They also gave the entire community top-notch sporting events. Changes and additions were prevalent in the '66-'67 Athletic Board. Mr. Dave McDaniel assumed the posi- tion ot athletic director of the board, which consisted of student representatives, coaches, and principals. Chip Dineen, freshman: lim Wilson, sophomore: Todd Gas- tineau, junior: and Steve Folkerth, senior, were the stu- dent representatives, elected by the student body.
