oobZm UK pending time surrounded by water or reclining with favorite beverage in hand, students were always satisfied. Neon lights and late nights, sunny skies and love lives, Motley Crue and the Grateful Dead intensified summer life. Whether spending a day in the water, or reclining with a favorite beverage in hand, students always seemed satisified. I went on vacation with my grandma to Cincinnati and learned to jet ski, said junior Tiffany Pollington. Leaping off a huge, rocky cliff and plunging into cool water is a super way to spend a summer afternoon. It ' s great; you just have to make sure you keep your legs together when you hit the water, said sophomore Sam Hinz. Although beach volleyball is a little far fetched in Montana the game is still on the tops for sum- mer sports. It ' s not necessarily a game of skill when you ' re having fun, said senior Diane No- ble. Bicycling long distances, short races, or just for the fun of it, was enjoyed by many students as well as teachers. Where I ride is nice because the scenery and the wildlife are nice to watch, said English Teacher Charles Rossell. Boating, wind surfing, and skiing also captured the thrill of others. I like to water ski because of the thrill and challenge to stay dry, said senior Greg Wolgamot. Fun in the sun became a practiced and perfect- ed summer ritual. It could be found in many things ranging from tossing a frisbee on Broad- water, to relaxing in a Cabbage Patch wading pool. Although the kids have changed from year to year, the heartbeat of summer goes on. -Dwayne Strong Senior Greg Wolgamol shows his slalom style .11 Holler Lake.

Long hours of drawing, painting, tap- ing, and cutting for the floor decora- tions finally paid off as the lights were shut down and Disneyland came to life. The eager Rustler stu- dents came wide-eyed through the doors to see the results. The freshmen took fourth place, ju- niors third, sophomores second and of course the seniors first. The class participation wasn ' t very good, but then things got going. I was pretty pleased in the end. The commons area blew me away, said Steve Young, senior class president. Taking a closer look at behind the scenes, the drama department devoted a great deal of time and effort into the coronation decorations. As a result, a castle covered with 13 pounds of glitter was created. The kids didn ' t get to see the fin- ished product until the night before homecoming. When the students appeared to carry the master- piece, piece by piece, to the gym to put them together for the first time, Spencer said, No- body else was more surprised than 1 was! Thanks to the wonderful imagination of Walt Disney, Rustlers in Montana can also enjoy the excitement of Disneyland. «rttiMininr -ii i-ni asa 5 3SSn j s 1 , STUD! '
