This year the band was fortunate to get new uniforms. After much hard work and many meetings, the Band Parents Association was able to provide the band with beautiful suits and over- lays. The band took pride in marching for Harding and it was important to them to look good. It was a lot of hassle to get dressed at school before the games, but it was worth it. Being prepared for the big show was what the band strived for. The Drum majors for this year's band were Aaron Brown and Robin Sharpe. They were dedicated to the Bams and loved what they were doing for their school. Many times Aaron and Robin would strut their stuff to please the crowd. The uniforms were beautiful and they really made the band look great. They stood as a symbol of that great Bam pow- er and pride, The H on front of the overlay showed that the band went for the best and wanted to reach for the gold. Band 29

A . fr ,W J, - This year Spirit Week was shortened by the first quarter break, but this in no way short- ened the spirit of the Rams at Harding. Spirit Week was full of variety and excitement. One of the new events this year was the Powder Puff foot- ball game. On Wednesday, the football players took the side- lines to watch the girls of the Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, and Senior classes take the field. The football game was 30 Spirit Week very exciting. The girls showed determination and skill because both teams wanted to win bragging rights . However, the final score was tied, seven to sev- en, with Rhonda Curry scor- ing for the Seniors and Ber- nitta Cauthen for the Under- classmen. Other clubs and organiza- tions also held events during the week. These included the Rap and Tap Show sponsored by the varsity cheerleaders, the Haunted House for Hallow- een assembled by the SADD Club, the Spirit Ribbons sold by the Executive Council, and the Happy Hands provided by the Applied Economics class of Mr. Lloyd Davis. This short but sweet week in our school year will always be an unforgettable one.
