Aside from cheering at school sporting events, the 1984-85 Varsity cheer- leading squad attended a USA Spirit camp where they received all superior ribbons in competition, they performed a number of assemblies, held numerous fundraisers and performed football and basketball halftime routines, Camp was really alot of fun , stat- ed senior Tammy Peckam.

They take time out to do special assembly pre- sentations and parades. The color guard won second place in the Piacentia Heri- tage Parade this year. Service is a big part of our class, says John Petrillo. They have done everything from Christ- mas Caroling at St. Jude Hospital to the Toys-for-Tots program. There are 5 periods of the R.O.T.C. All participants are looking for the three things out of the program; Leadership ex- perience, management, and discipline.

tt, let ' s Go Crazy The 1984-85 Songleaders were faced with an interesting dilemma. For the first time, there wouid be no returning songleaders from the pre- vious squad. This situation however did not make the slightest bit of difference. The squad of three seniors and four juniors combined their creativity and leadership qualities to make their year very successful. They did one of many outstanding performances at camp, they livened up an as- sembly with a dance to Let ' s Go Crazy and they entertained spectators with a basketball halftime routine, Songleading gave me the chance to get involved with all the sports and in different activities , commented senior Jenni White. As a whole, the squad got along fairly well. There was a difference of opinion on some matters, but of course, that is expected. If we were closer friends, our squad would of gotten along better. We had alot of fun though , stat- ed senior Karle Sherman.
