Cheer's lead successful 1 year The 1980-1981 Cheer line did a suc- cessful job of leading the crowds at foot- ball games, basketball games, and the numerous assemblies that were held over the year. The varsity line, led by Captain Tori Bohn, and the J.V., led by Kelly Niehuis, worked with their sponsor, Mrs. Smith, to create one of our most active and productive cheer lines in years. They went to Summer Cheer Camp, only to return with superior and excellent rib- bons along with the Spirit Stick. They raised money to pay for their uniforms and refreshments for the football and basketball players by selling ribbons and buttons and having a car wash.

5. ' 4 l i Mascots 'plan for different image The 1981 Mascots planned to create a different image for themselves on the AHS campus this year, and succeeded. They started by having a totally new kind of spring tryouts where the girls had to perform and take tests as well as meet scholastic requirements. The six chosen were Mary Bonny, Dawn Bush- roe, Sylvia Canez, Debbie Griffith, Bren- da Hammonds, and Kim White. They got off to a great start towards a different year by going to cheer camp, a first for mascots. They got involved on campus more than ever by participating in events such as the Homecoming slave sale. They sold spirit buttons to raise money to purchase a new lion suit. The Mascots attended all the athletic MASCOTS-FRONT ROW: Mr. Wayne Anthony.
