Personifications of Bruin Pride, Larry Rosenberger wheels Jim Vaile around as they promote For one sensational number, Matt Leland adds to the trombone section of Concert Band II while playing One''. As the shrill sound of the buzzer subsided, a new noise, the chants and cheers of an excited student body, was heard. The first day of school brought with it the first meeting of the new Pep Club. The unexpected turnout proved that the student body was ready to cheer our purple and gold teams on to victory. Above the tooting horns and the Marching Band's grandstand support, the Pep Club could be heard echoing the cheers of the cheerleaders and the mascots. The addition of male cheerleaders enhanced the excite- ment of the games. Giving the students a chance to go to away games, the enthusiastic SGA pro- vided Pep buses. This resulted in the Bruin fans outnumbering the opponents at their own field at most of the away games. Sup- porters came equipped with the new Growl Towels and school jerseys, as well as foam fingers showing the Bruins as being ‘‘number one”. The excitement wasn't just shown at sports events, but it was carried throughout the school day as well. The SGA sponsored a new School Spirit Week to give the entire stu- dent body a chance to show school spirit. Even at Pep rallies the cheers were not only for in- dividual classes, but for Bruins as a whole, showing that we were pro- ud to be together...

Free to express our Bruin pride in areas beyond the football bleachers and pep rallies, our dedication to Lake Braddock bran- ched out into different arteries within the school. Members of the newly-formed club, SCREAM, Society for the Creative Reform of Educational and Academic Mat- ters, took the responsibilities upon themselves to upgrade the cur- riculum in their efforts to institute and honors government for seniors and to ease the student’s work load through departmental testing.
