Come on maroon and gold! shouted the pep squad at numerous sporting events. And they had some- thing to cheer about.

To become an A.H.S. Varsity Cheerleader or Pom Pon, the girls went through a week of learning routines, cheers, jumps, ana kicks for tryouts. This clinic was taught by 79- 80 pep squad members. The night of tryouts, excitement and nervous- ness was present in the air. I was scared and very nervous, you know, the usual stuff, admitted Varsity Cheerleader Tammy Lockhart. After the squaa was chosen, the funa raising began. There was a sta- tionery sale, a calendar sale, a car wash. Money earned from these fund raisers helped pay for their uni- forms, megaphones, pom pons, and various other needed pep items. During the summer, the Varsity Cheerleaders attended the Nation- al Cheerleading Association Camp in Long Beach while the Pom Pons traveled a different road to San Die- go ' s National Cheerleaaing Associ- ation Camp. Filled with new ideas and inspira- tion, the girls enthusiastically prac- ticea at least three days a week in the heat and smog, developing new routines. Throughout the year the Varsity tried to cover all aspects of Arling- ton ' s sports by attending at least one game for every sport. •Junior Lisa Forester executes a pom pon routine as CeeCee Dunivan and Holly LaSalle perform in the background 47
