For those who don't know who the Mods are, they are Bremerton High's select mixed group. They'II sing anything from the ancient tunes to rock n' roll to jazz. With names as Booble , Pete , Ace , Fish , Pooh , Zeke , and Mr. Zeke that tells you that the Mods are wilder and crazier than ever too! The great person- alities of this group makes them as close as they are and as good as they are. But along with the crazy side of Mods, there is a serious side to them too. When it comes to singing they try their hardest. They performed for all school concerts and functions. Throughout the year, they have performed for the community, especially during Christmastime. They went to the Olympic League Festival and went to Pasco for a weekend of jazz competition. They really enjoyed their stay down there. They split into smaller groups for the Solo and Ensemble contest which was held here at Bremerton High. They re- ceived superior, excellent and good ratings. But the best memory we'II have of this year is the Blue Ensemble's great rendition of Ave Maria ???? Mod ,tif rV?VVVFVVVM

The Chansonettes is our select girI's choir Their reat harmonies and beau . g - tiful voices are something that no one will soon forget. As usual there were a few problems: the usual hassle over uniforms and that there weren't too many veteran singers in the group. Nevertheless, the Chansonettes were soon on the way to a great year. One pleasant tradition the group has kept is the great Sand- wich Party. fGeorge insists upon keeping that tradition.J The group has had quite a busy year with their crowded schedule. They per- formed at all the school concerts and performed for many community groups. Christmas time was especially busy, sometimes having 3 to 5 performances back to back. Soon after Christmas came Solo and Ensemble Contest where they received excellent ratings on their performance. The final events of the year included Olympic League Festival, the schooI's Swing and Spring con- certs and the overnight trip to Pasco for a jazz festival where they had a really fun time. Bremerton High should be very proud to have such a group repre- senting us. 122 Chansonettes Pres. Yazmin Zink, Sec!Treas Robyn Wenzl V.P. Regina Pelone

Riley. Concert Choir is a group comprised of mostly Ju- niors and Seniors. It is a good group to get more vocal training before trying for a select singing group. They aren't a very large group like Soph- omore Choir, but that doesn't matter to them be- cause they have great pride in what they are doing and they really enjoy performing. Under the direc- tion of George Mantzke and their officers Pres. Randy Boekenoogen and V.P. Anna Meigs, they have had their share of performances. The first concert of the year was the Christmas Concert fol- lowed by the Swing and Spring Concerts. The big performances included the Armed Forces Concert and the Olympic League Festival at Central Kitsap where they combined with all of Bremerton's choirs and Central, North, and South Kitsap's choirs for a day and gave a very spectacular concert. 124 Concert Choir Above: Craig Peterson and Mike Mantzke
