Laurie Wilder Foundation Exceeds Goal Laurie Wilder Week began with a kick-off assembly on September 30. This was the first year that it was the Friday before the week. Junior Roger Bucher, treasurer of the Laurie Wil- der Foundation commented, Having the assembly before the door-to-door campaign was a great idea because it helped to boost at- tendance which was what contrib- uted to the year's great financial suc- grea cess. The assembly also informed the student body about Cystic Fi- brosis, which overcame Laurie in 1984. The week was modeled after her enthusiastic personality. New features for this year included the Elementary Olympiad, the auc- tion and the Run for tne Roses. The auction included articles that were donated from stores at Great North- ♦♦♦ ern and Westgate. It was really ex- tna am Things Considered irie Wilder Week citing when stores donated some- thing because most of them had a policy against giving to charity, stat- ed sophomore Kristin Purdy. The items that were auctioned off ranged from a limo service to bowling passes and coupons. Traditions such as the Sunrise Ser- vice, Community Breakfast, Powder- puff and Oympiads and the High School and Middle School contin- ued. Senior Kim Weiss, who chaired the activities at the Mid- dle School said, It was great for us to have so many people willing to help out! The Laurie Wilder Foundation raised $8,500 last year, $3,000 of which came from the Browns bas- ketball game with the faculty. The goal for this fall was $8,000 but the group exceeded this by making over $10,500. Proceeds benefited the Matthew Salem Camp, the United Way, and the Cystic Fibrosis Foun- dation. Freshman Karen Winslow com- mented, I really liked Laurie Wilder Week because our spirit was up. The whole school got into it.

 $ ■ Warm Weather Happenings So what goes on during the ex- citing summers in Bay Village, Ohio? Besides parties, beacnes, picnics and tanning, many school groups started activities at this time. Senior Cindy Elmore, president of SADD, com- mented, We organized a booth at Bay Days where we handed out in- formation. We wanted to get people interested during the summer, before the year started. Rockettes and band members be- gan their practices during the sum- mer. These two groups attended Band Camp during the entire month of August. Junior band member Lucy Landis said, It was a total riot be- cause we got to see everyone a month before school started. We did learn things, but it was a lot of fun too. Many students kept busy with summer jobs. Senior Tricia Waltz managed to hold two. 1 decided to take two jobs for the extra money. 1 worked as a summer school secretary at the Middle School along with my job at Friendly's. It actually ended up being more of a hassle, but because one was in the morning and I wait- ress at night, I still had my days free. It was a really good experience, she said. Fall sports start practices during July ana August. Some even have games before the first day. We start- ed soccer practice in mid-August. The first week, everyone who's play- ing practices together. The Jv and varsity teams are gradually separat- ed. Later in the month, two-a-days begin. These are very difficult! This is when the team really works hard, junior Keith Strauss commented. Sophomore Bill Sprengnether said, The worst thing about summer is that no matter what, I always seem to end up doing something that's re- lated to school and before you know + it, it starts! ♦♦V- All Things Considej sssIHIjS:
