Twenty-two cheerleaders worked together to build an atmosphere of fun, while maintaining a tough schedule of practices, games, and competitions. People tend to lable cheerleaders. We are really a very under- estimated group. We do a lot more than people think! , stated varsity captain, Kendra Knight. Cheerleading camp, held in late summer, was a week long camp where squads from all over the state came to learn cheers and chants and share the experiences of being a cheerleader. It was really hard, said J.V. captain Jenny Stitt. I thought it went very well. We learned to work together much better! As school started, the cheerleaders looked forward to football season. Run-through signs, treats for the football players, and many other responsibilities rested with the cheerleaders. As well as keeping up with the season, cheerleaders had to contend with practices for upcoming competitions. Varsity competed at the Rock 101, Greenville Mall competition and placed handed Maul- din a third place. At the Junior Varsity Cheerwine Cheer-Off at McAlister Square, Mauldin J.V. placed first among eight squads.

The fashion club led by Mrs. Jacqui Young organized because students expressed an interest in fashion and cosmetics. The club began with Lyris Verdura, Darleen Jones, Tammy Moreland, and Benita Killingsworth. With these four people the club grew to twenty people. As the number grew to twenty, success came. Money from fashion shows added to club growth. Mrs. Young stated, Students working with the club have been encouraged to go into fashion merchandising and Cosmetology. They have also been asked to work in stores and boutiques as models and to serve as members of a school show. Then Soul Searchers Organization is under the direction of Mrs. Bertha Zimmerman. Joe Yaughn, a former teacher organized the club. Mrs. Bertha Zimmerman said, The purpose of the club is to expand cultural awareness among the students at Mauldin High? To show this, each year the club gives an assembly program depicting black history, music or culture. Members also do research on famous black people during National Black History Week. These two clubs give the students a better outlook and understanding of differences among people. Benita Killingsworth Carolyn and Marilyn Berry state that fashion can come in pairs. iPhoto by Robert FFCCHTRIHJ I wa... N f l52fFushion Club ri. 735
