Money-making is a key concern because juniors have many expenses, and want to have some money left over for the long anticipated senior trip. This year the juniors had two advisers, Nancy Westlund and Ron Nicholson, to help oversee their activities. Concessions were well-organized with students taking the major responsibilities. Spring brought a change in the usual plans of holding the Junior-Senior Banquet and Prom on different nights. Due to a track meet, the dinner and dance were held on the same night. Juniors were excused the day of the event to decorate. They chose as their theme, Rainbow Reflec- tions, and made a giant rainbow of crepe paper. After a delicious dinner prepared by the junior mothers, the dance featured the band, Swamp- grass. Juniors also decorated for baccalaureate and graduation, and junior girls served as arch bearers for the ceremony. Class officers were Jamie Farrington, presidentg Vicki Riley, vice president, Lori Herron, secretary, Tami Jo Hendrix, treasurer, Matt Webb, sergeant- at-armsg and La Donna Michael, representative. 1
