Christmas Fundraiser Successful Class Officers Display Leadership The Sophomore class, like all classes, had to raise money for present and future class needs. This year the sophomores put their energy into a fundraiser that involved selling elegant Christmas candles and bells. The bells were primarily designed to be displayed on a Christmas tree. Money prizes were the incentives offered to any student who sold more than $75.00 in sales. This proved to be a popular motivator. The fundraiser increased the class bank account so that they are well on the road for their future financial needs. Junior Prom and other activities in the future will be the benefi- ciary of this money. Class officers are elected to do a job that takes some essential qualities. Leadership is a very important characteristic. Another is patience. With this in mind, the Sophomore class elected four people as class officers who displayed these qualities. These people crea- tively and with hard work led them through the 1 986-1987 school year. This year, the officers were: President Laurie Sanders Vice-President Kim Allen Secretary Dawn Jozwiak Treasurer Gayle Emigh Back row: President Laurie Sanders. Vice President Kim Allen.

Sophomores Show Spirit During Homecoming The Sophomore class had an exciting homecoming week. Their hopes for a first place in float building were not realized, but this fact did nothing to mar their spirit. The class float theme was Wheel of Fortune ' . From a sopho- more’s point of view, the float was a sure winner, but the techni- cal judging had the float coming up just short of victory. Imagination and creativity were the mainstay of the sopho- more ' s float and their spirit for the entire week. Dawn Jozwiak was the sophomore representative on the Homecoming court. (See picture at right.) She was escorted by senior Jeff Smith. Dawn was the class secretary and participa- ted in cross country, cheerleading, and track. The week was one that the sophomores had every right to be proud of. They indicated that they were a spirited class. A Class Ring Shows Unity The sophomore class had the opportunity to buy class rings this year. A class ring is a symbol of your high school days and also is meant to remind you of them. Jostens sent a representat- ive to the school to speak with the sophomores about the quality of their products and about the way they back them. Many features can be added to the rings, but the most symbolic is the graduat- ing year and school name or mascot. Jostens most important point was a presentation of the ring as something that unites the class in a different way. Many students purchased ring and were very satisfied with the quality and warranty. Class rings are among the most cherished memento from your high school days. 1 0, Sophomores

Junior Class Officers Lead the Way Dusty Hondzinski President The Junior year is very im- portant to every class because it requires good leadership in order to make the Senior year a year that everyone in the class will remember. This year’s Junior class officers have absolutely lived up to all hopes and expectations and then some. The Senior year seems destined to be great. As president, Dusty Hondzinski had many jobs which included organizing homecoming and the Junior Katie Jackson Vice-President Prom, setting up and leading the steering committee meet- ings, starting fund raisers, and directing the operation of the concession stand at home varsity football games. Dusty commented, ‘I really enjoy being president and having all the responsibilities I have, even though it’s hard, but the results usually pay off.’ Dusty receives a lot of help from the vice-president, Katie Jackson. ‘I really don’t have much to do because the Tammy Duncan Secretary president does so much of it. All the officers help out a lot, though,’ Katie said. Tammy Duncan, the class secretary, also contributes much of her time to organizing within the junior class activi- ties. She does everything from sending out invitations and writing thank-you notes to tak- ing attendance at meetings. Tammy said, As secretary, I really appreciate all the help I’ve received from the teachers and administrators, Jennifer Toles Treasurer especially during Homecom- ing and the Junior Prom. Also, many people in the community are always willing to help us.’ Jennifer Toles, the class treasurer, also helps out con- siderably by keeping track of all the class money and assist- ing the other officers. ‘I really like being an officer, and I think it’s a lot of fun,’ Jennifer commented. For the 1986-1987 school year, the Junior Class was in good hands. Fundraising Prepares For Senior Year The Junior Class has raised quite a substantial sum of money this year. This will be used next year, the senior year, to fund the Senior Prom and other activities and needs that the class will have in its final year. The money was raised in various ways. This included everything from operating the traditional Junior Class con- cession stand at home football games to selling Christmas ornaments shortly before Christmas. The class president, Dusty Hondzinski, had the respon- sibility of managing the con- cession stand for the entire game and making sure that all the classmates helping her were doing their jobs and showing up on time. The concession stand plays a major role in the Junior Class fundraising for the year. ' The job was done correctly, and everything ran smoothly and efficiently,’ said Deanne Gkekas. The Junior Class future looks bright because of all the efforts extended by many dur- ing the course of the year. Mr. Bill Goetz was the class sponsor. 12 Juniors
