Wee-Nook-shi, Mount Tahoma's synchron- ized swimming group, gives girls an opportun- ity to enjoy aquatic sports and to learn from swimming skills. Each fall girls showing aptitude and who can perform the basic swimming strokes are accepted. The more difficult skills, proper rhythm, and timing are learned after they be- come members. Every Monday after school Wee-Nook-Shi met under the direction of Mrs. Scott and pres- ident Kristi McLeod. A business meeting and deck exercises would be followed by practic- ing strokes and stunts in the water. On April 8th, 9th, and lOth, they presented their annual water show to the public. The theme for the pageant was Swimphony and each of the members participated in at least one of the acts. Synchronized swimmers execute a Sunburst. A great leap led to a great performance by Kristi McLeod, Males are rare and not frequently featured by Wee-Nook-Shi. One-Hundred-Thirty-Seven
