acrobats. A lot of talent showed itself that night. The Quality Inn was the place for Seniors on December 7. This was the sight of the Senior Dinner Dance. The Student Council provided us with the Homecoming festivities and also planned the Almost Anything Goes event which was to take place the day before Christmas vacation. Plans had been made, students and faculty were all signed up to compete in the various events, but on December 20, the weather had other plans. Boone County was closed due to snow. Other activities followed throughout the year. A Hawaiian Dance brightened up the cold, gray days of winter and the Prom spoke of the promise of Spring just around the corner. The Prom moved its location this year. Rather than having it at the Drawbridge as it had been for the past several years, the ’86 prom was held in romantic Moonlight Gardens at Old Coney. Athletics at Boone remained a very big part of the school scene. It held excitement for many; not just the players but the fans who loved to support their “Rebel” and “Lady Rebel” players. Coach Hauck’s mighty Rebel football team started out the year with a bang by winning the Districts and the Regional Championship. Even though the Rebels were defeated by Lexington Layfette in their second Bottom: Powder Putt football was a big thrill for the Rebel cheerleaders as they creamed the Conner Kittens Bottom Lett: Proudly repreaenting the Rebelettea, Michelle Buelow and her escort.

Boone County Football was not the only sport to be successful at going Down State; the soccer team made it to the state semi-finals. This was a tremendous achievement for our fantastic soccer team and their coach, Randy Poe. The Cross Country team made it down state also. The team ran at The Kentucky Horse Park and a few of our Rebels placed in the top 100 runners in Kentucky. Coach Wihebrink had one of his best teams ever. The basketball teams did very well also. The “Lady Rebels began under a new head coach, Nell Hensley from Eastern Kentucky University. The teams had a new gym to practice in and a new gym floor was put down in the old gym. The gym was also refurnished and freshly painted. A review of the '85-86 school year showed just how special Boone County was. Whether it was the fun activities Boone had to offer or the fantastic athletic teams, Boone was still on top. There may have been some changes in Boone County such as new classrooms, new teachers, new coaches, and new students, but the true Rebel colors, silver and blue were still shining bright and we were “Better than Ever! — Sherrie Mallicoat Bottom: Showing ability and symmetry, the Rebel cheerleaders make a perfect pyramid.
