Life for a Pepster never seemed to cease! MARCH 5 - 1 can ' t believe it, I made Varsity Pep. Out of all the girls that tried out, I MADE It! I can ' t wait until I start cheering at games and Pep rallies. APRIL 7 - WOW! Look at all these uniforms I can choose from. There ' s turtlenecks, V necks, two stripes, three stripes, even short sleeves or long sleeves. I ' ll never be abit to decide which I like best. Eeenie, meenie, minee, moe! JUNE 29 - Practice, practice, practice. Learn- ing all these cheers is sure tiring. I ' ll never remember all of these routines. What I need right now is a nice tall glass of water and a shady tree to sit under. JULY 1 7 - This is absolutely great. I ' ve never had more fun at a camp then this one. I ' ve learned more things for Pep, like when to cheer and how, as well as meeting new people and seeing new places. I ' m having so much fun here. That party last night was a total blast. SEPTEMBER 1 3 - Our first Pep rally. I think I ' m going to faint. Just look at all the people in the stands and they ' re all looking at me. I wonder if my hair is straight and my uniforms alright ... I mean my hair alright and uniform straight. OCTOBER 1 - I ' m freezing! This night football game sure is fun, but I don ' t think my legs are going to last much longer. Maybe we should have gotten purple and gold leg warmers too. OCTOBER 7 - I hope my moms not mad at me for using all the toilet paper. I must have toilet papered over 20 football players bedrooms. I sure wish I was there to see the expressions of their faces when they walked in their rooms. FEBRUARY 1 1 - Things around Pep are sure slowing down. I haven ' t done much all week except bother Mrs. Cline. MARCH 10-1 just have to make it! I can ' t believe that it ' s Pep tryouts again. I can re- member when I had just made it last year. I guess that time really does fly when you ' re having fun, for this year sure has gone fast. Being one of DBHS first pepsters is the best thing that ever happened to me! ► PEP.

► REACHING OUT. Michelle Hansen stretches for the sky in this Drill Team routine, which was made up by the girls. Routines were made up by captains and lieutenants. Kicks get higher, as drill team marches on. Three days a week, two hours a day, and more after that, the Drill Team practiced to get to their peak. Its alot of hard work, but It ' s so much fun. com- mented Stacey Park, sophomore. With only two experienced Drill Team mem- bers, Bridgette Kemp-head captain, and co- captains Jenny Shane and Mary Chang, it was difficult when new routines were to be learned. However, the other thirty girls caught on with good results. Drill Team went on to win a superior trophy and, a spirit stick at camp. The girls are really neat, they are really ex- cited and enthusiastic about being on Drill. adds Mary Chang, co-captaln. Along with practicing, the Drill members took time for Inside and outside activities, such as Brahma Buddies In which each girl gives something special to their Brahma Buddy. Of course, their Brahma Buddy , Is confiden- tial, but according to many, that ' s what makes It fun. It ' s a cute way to get to know the other girls better. stated Carmen Fuentes, sopho- more. During a competition Is when the drill team becomes even closer. Working together, prac- ticing together, doing activities together, and also winning together, the Drill Team realizes that they ' re a whole. This Is where all the girls especially feel like a big family, with butterflies In their stomachs in the beginning, and sighs of relief when It ' s allover. Being able to compete together is great, and winning together is even better. commented Jenny Shane, junior. When we ' re out there competing we see each other as a whole: all arguments resolve. said Mary Chang, junior. A ANTICIPATION, Jeannie Johnson waits for the time when competition starts. Drill usually watched football before performing. ► KICKING HIGH IN THE AIR, the drill team members get ready for a performance during a home football game. The girls practiced hard to get to a winning attitude. WORKING FOR KICKS 88 Group Rates Drill Team
