King Mike Haag and Queen Roberta Kurcharskl get all heated up by the fire. Tom Kinney and Harry Giovanni discuss the Homecoming game to take place. The bonfire at its fullest blaze. Spirit Ablaze at Bonfire The JHS bonfire is always a highlight of the Homecoming activities. The King and Queen are announced and other awards are presented. Mainly, the bonfire represents one last boost of encouragement for the team. Humongous piles of lumber are piled up, and the blaze begins. The school spirit is unbelievable; it is probably at it’s highest at this point. The tension mounts as the announcement of the King and Queen is ready to be given. Roberta’s reaction to winning, “It was an exciting, fun, experience. It was a real honor that will last a lifetime.” A soc-hop was held after the bonfire. 13 Whooooops! There goes another JHS Cheerleader.

Fairytales was the theme of this year’s homecoming. A fairytale it was for Mike Haag and Roberta Kucharski who have been going together for several years. They had the honor of being crowned JHS’s Homecoming King and Queen. It was a semi-formal dance, the theme was “A Night In Heaven.” The dance began at 8, it was held in the cafeteria, which was decorated with flashing lights around the steps. Stars were hanging from the ceiling and on the walls, and a fog machine gave it a ‘Heavenly Effect.” A difference in Homecoming this year, there wasn’t a band, ‘‘We had a D.J. because we wanted more danceable music,” commented Kim Abell, student council member. The highlight of the evening was the coronation of the King and Queen. Peter Switzer and Dawn Williamson, a fairytale come true.
