What these students were so high about was the school's spirit clubs, the ju- nior and senior bands and the lettermen's clubs. These groups put the pep into the pep assemblies and turned the athletic events into something of a show. The band, too, had the ability to excite the crowds at Friday night football games and that day's pep assem- blies, with the climax at the performance at halftime. They also showed their musical talent in concerts during the school year. The lettermen's clubs, were popular with the ath- letes. Their members were comprised of athletes, both male and female. These ath- letes had excelled at a sport to win the coveted OG to place on their jackets or sweaters. The band's musical talents and the lettermen's athletic abilities combined to make game day and night excit- ing. ' n rss' or r With 30 seconds before the end of the game, down by 3 and the outlook pretty grim, the band starts in with an all out effort to try and raise the crowd's morale and spirit. Thomas Sponer blows a tune to help with the effort. Many Iettermen show their membership in the club by wearing the intertwined OG on jackets. OG symbolized involvement and participation of both male and female athletes. James Harness sports Angie Clausen's jacket which she received for basketball. Even in the bitter cold, the band gives it their all while performing for the crowd at halftime. - . y Spirit Groups ss 1- .

Decorating lockers has always been a tradition at Oak Grove, but this year the decorations took on a more prac- tical use. Mirrors bought from the sen- ior high cheerleaders could be found in most lockers. Al Craham's mirror came in handy between classes. rf. :SN Teachers get into the act of fund raising, too! The cold weather didn't stop Mr. Moore from helping out the Senior Beta Club by selling donuts be- fore school. The Senior Beta Club raised 5116 to buy the academic awards. ...VS M Giving is what the holiday season is all about. Oak Grove proved they had the holiday spirit as FBLA raised food to give to two needy families for Thanksgiving. Jerry Utley contributes his gifts to the food basket. F If .

I 44.1 lub urren Every Little Bit Counts Large sums of money, sweet- tempting choc- olate, knick- knacks for lockers-these objects were all a part of club life. Clubs to raise reasons. The Senior Beta Club continued this year with their annual fundraiser, selling donuts. The donuts were sold in the mornings before school to the hungry students who had skipped their breakfast. The fundraiser financed the aca- demic trophies for the award assembly. were always trying money for various FBLA also completed a fundraiser by selling Kathryn Beich candy bars. The money raised was used to purchase new stands for the typewriting books. FBLA had an unusual twist to the typical fund raiser. Instead of selling objects to raise money, they sponsored a food basket for three weeks. The collected food was given to the needy for Thanksgiving. This was the first year I was involved in the FBLA food basket drive. I only wish we could have contributed food to more than two families, said Amy Thistlethwaite. The expected fund raisers were looked forward to by some but dreaded by others. Students awaited the selling of donuts and candybars as a welcome relief to the between class munchies. The students who completed the fund raiser didn't always anticipate its beginning. Selling candy can be a pain because you are re- sponsible for the money that is collected. Even though I don't enjoy fund raiser, I al- ways participate because it is a necessary part of club life, said LaNae lackson. . Fund Roisers i
