VARSITY CHEERLEADERS CREATE ACTION ATTRACTION Exhilerating spirit throughout the year, the varsity cheerlead- ers are active in many activities. Mr. Warrior, Mickey West, joined the cheerleaders in cheering for all sports events and pep rallies during the school year. The cheerleaders, under the direction of Mrs. West and Mrs. Bean, assisted in the preparation and serving of pre- game meals to football players and coaches for all home games. This special time for athletes and cheerleaders served as a time for sharing team spirit before the games. The cheering squad raised money to buy new uniforms with co-captains Wendy Harris and Karen Millican assisting Mrs. West. The squad also provides many services to the school such as serving as guides and assisting the faculty and admin- istration in special events.

GAA AND PEP CLUB SHARE IN COMMON INTERESTS Supporting all girls athletics at Henrico is the function of the Girls Athletic Association (GAA). The organization partici- pates in and attends girls’ sporting events. In order to raise money to purchase equip- ment for the various girls’ teams, the Girls Ath letic Associ- ation sponsored an aluminum can collection drive and ping pong tournament. With a twelve member squad the Pep Club strives to promote spirit and togetherness between the student body and faculty. The club participated in the Homecoming Parade, Bonfire, and helped provide refresh- ments for the football team. To cover expenses the Pep Club sold candy. Many other activi- ties were planned such as a pizza party, a kissing booth for Valentine’s Day and a talent show.
