n Boone County, many land- marks and historical sites at- tracted visitors: Big Bone State Park, historical Burling- ton, and the haunted Galt house. Not receiving attention, but definitely a land- mark, Boone County High School housed students for its 29th year. Though it suf- fered some facelifts, including the addi- tion of a west wing and a bandroom, the school remained a place for students to increase their knowledge. A group of faculty — Mrs. Joan Ray, Mr. Ted Revack, Mr. John Dorman, Mr. George Toadvine, Mrs. Shirley Toadvine, Mrs. Priscilla Cook, and Mrs. Betty Dun- can — all started teaching within ten years of the school’s opening. Twenty years later, students still received instruc- tion from them. Traditions continued: Homecoming, the Junior-Senior Prom, and athletic events dominated the week- ends. Afterwards, students found them- selves at their favorite hangouts, or par- ties. Others preferred romantic dates at the movies. Sundays still belong to recu- peration. Everywhere one looked, at the school, the faculty, or the tradition of Rebel Spirit, one thing could be found, Something Old.
