We ll always remember It seems like only yesterday we entered school as freshman We all had our own hopes, fears, and expectations of how it would be for us in the next four years, but most of all we all were looking forward to that day in '79 when they handed us our diplomas. During the later part of summer the Fifield kids and the kids from St Anthony's came through the front doors of L.H.S. and began to fill our slot as the class of '79. Being that we were only freshman there wasn't a strong pride built in us yet (just like every freshman class), but with the help of our class officers; Jean Wardensky. President. Tammy Meyer as Vice President, and Marie Burant for Sec. Tres.. we began our similar journey, one that will come to an end on June 3. 1979. The school year of 75-76 brought many new things to our lives that we had never seen before. Homecoming for example, was our first school dance. For some of us. it was a heartache because we didn't have a date and for others it was looked on as being the biggest night of our lives. We were represented in the court by Carla Messerschmidt and Dan Detko. As we looked on at the coronation, a lot of us realized how precious these years would be Time past and towards the end of this first year we attended Prom The theme was ‘ Pieces of April'' and our attendents were Jean Koshak and Kevin Mann The night was full of laughter, tears of happiness, and just alot of good ol' fun Our freshman year was full of a lot of firsts our first basketball game as students of L.H.S.. pep assemblies, solo ensomble. band and choir trips, our first class m “ ah algebra ah and of course our first real romances. As sophomores, we always were in the middle of things There didn't seem to be a suitable place for us as non-freshman and yet never upperclassmen We were out in no mans land for a full year. But we survived this awkward age. With a little help from our friends Jean Koshak as class pres . Tammy Meyer filling the position of vice pres., and Andrea Post fulfilling the duties of sec tres Homecoming came up fast and gave us some hope that the year wouldn t be too long. Attendants at the Homecoming dance were Curt Sheldon and Mary Radlmger After the dance was through, some of us sat and talked about the next dance. Sadie Hawkins This being the only dance all year the girls tried to snag themselves a man (or something quite close to that). Sadie Hawkins would be the first dance we would sponsor We titled it Magic Man , a song Heart was singing at the time, because this is how we held our dates as magic men. After the dance was over and the money was counted we soon realized we were the first class to profit from this small get together. Throughout the winter, we found ourselves involved in school activities like cheering on our wrestling squad (conference champs!!!!) or worrying about the next history test on the Jungle The thing we all had in common was we all were looking forward to spring Finally it came; with it also came track season, more tests, and Prom. This year the theme was Precious and Few. We had chosen Steve Mikula as our attendent and he chose Mary Radlmger as his date. As we watched, our hearts held a special type of warmth and anticipation of what the prom of next year would hold in store, since it was going to be our prom The summer of '77 went by fast, as fast as the following were to go; we didn’t know yet to cherish every moment Soon we found ourselves amid all the turmoil of being upperclassmen. During our junior year we were to live through some exciting, historical times. Football season wasn't what we all had dreamed it would be. Homecoming was far less that we had expected, losing 34-0. our hopes were all but shattered. But. that didn't stop the high spirits we all felt as we entered through doors to attend our third homecoming Jean Wardensky and her escort Harold Olson were the junior class attendants. The year continued on. and we found ourselves being at the state basketball tourmes. the first team in the history of L.H.S. to go to these tournaments. Upon coming home we were very proud to have in our possession the second place trophy Throughout the year, the class officers were very busy planning the Junior Prom. Agnes Kamkula and Jodi Knutson, pres, and vice pres, worked together on the color and theme as Marie Burant. sec tres. worked on finances and finding a band within our budget. As spring came around and the final finishing touches were coming together, we elected the king and his attendant. These two very distinguished men turned out to be Rob Michalski (king) and Jed Owen These two men in turn chose Lisa Sheedy (queen) and Mary Kay Herbst for their dates. The memorable year came to a close soon afterwards with us bidding good-bye to the class of '78 and with us saying hello to our senior year. The year we vowed to do everything we hadn't done yet. Now here we are. Head-Honchoes . Ivimg through our last year, making plans A lot of us are still wondering where we are headed for. others are off to a tech, school. Eau Claire. Madison, or maybe an Air Force Academy. Although we are all headed on our own directions, we all share some of the same memories We will remember the senior Homecoming when Bill Daniels and Mary Singer were king and queen, and John Booper Jehn and Marie Burant were attendants, the gym at noon, and cramming for semester finals. Time is going by so fast and we now find ourselves the regional basketball champs, with two wrestlers from the senior class, holding state honors, we are working on music for contest, losing all our free time (we're always on the go), writing our class pictures, picking our college of choice, finding friends we never knew we had. and thinking about graduation As each of us go on to finish our year, we hold hopes, fears, and expectations still We all hope that we have left a good lasting impression on L.H.S. and we hope that we may have left you with new goals of your own. We tell you all to dream, be optomistic. set your spirits high, be compassionate, and always be in union with your schoolmates and faculty, because for the length of time you are here, these people will be your life Never neglect what your mind tells you. but never forget to follow your heart. And please Always remember CLASS FLOWER: RED ROSE CLASS COLORS: MARROON AND SILVER CLASS MOTTO: DO NOT FOLLOW WHERE THE PATH LEADS, RATHER GO WHERE THERE IS NO PATH AND LEAVE A TRAIL.
