KEY CLUB Key Club is just one of many Poudre clubs. Key Club is a com- munity services group. They are sponsored by the Kiwanis and Mr. Ken Oglesby. They are a commu- nity services group and help with many projects around town. They sponsor a child in a third world country, providing himfher with money for food and helping with hisfher education. Key Club is responsible for helping with several community volunteer projects, as well as doing the major- ity of the fund raising that goes on at Poudre. Key Club meets the first and third Wednesday of every month, and each meeting includes new and in- teresting ideas for community and school projects. Key Club includes students from all three classes, and their com- bined efforts have helped the Kiwanis and PHS to accomplish many successful fund raisers, and these hard working students have created a club of friendship and Poudre pride. C.O.E. C.O.E., or Cooperative Office Edu- cation is taught by Miss Diane Kuhn. lt is a class designed to help seniors interested in a career in business find a job in a field which will be a part of their future career choices. The class meets every day second hour and is for seniors only. The class places students in a job in which they earn a salary and class credits, as well as on the job train- ing. There are students employed as dental and medical assistants, as well as secretaries, clerks and other business related fields. Hewlett Packard also employs several PHS students. For the business interested and ca- reer oriented senior, this class could be the beginning of a long and profitable business career. The training given and the quality of experience that the student gains from this program will be benefi- cial for any career they choose. 106 r A...

The marching band meets forth hour with Mr. Gary Stollsteimer. This class is a semester long, and a very busy se- mester for everyone involved. The class is a mixture of two types of marching band: street, and field marching band. The street play around town in different parade- like events, whereas the marching band plays at all home football games, as well as the quarter final playoffs at Grand Junction to help our football team's spirit. The marching band is also responsible for creating an upbeat, fast paced mood for our pep assemblies. Our Poudre band has played at the Air Force Academy, and CSU band days, as well as the Denver Parade of Lights in December of '87. The Poudre Marching Band is a group of hard working, good spirit- ed people, and a very important part of Poudre music, and pride. JAZZ BAND The Poudreville jazz band is just another of the talented instrumen- tal groups taught by Mr. Stoll- steimer here at PHS. The group is a source of real pride. They play at many pep assemblies and other school functions. The group will be performing at the Day of jazz in April of this year. Many of the jazz band members take part in other instrumental and vocal groups at PHS. The Poudreville jazz Band is made up of hard working, dedicated, and very talented PHS students. The Poudre jazz band is a big part of Poudre pride and enjoyment for both performers and students throughout the school year. And what do these talented people think of Poudreville jazz? I love it. The group works really hard to achieve the best possible sound. lt's hard work, but I defi- nitely don't mind doing it, says Kirsten Wilken, one of the many hard working performers.

Poudre's Outstanding Band! Last year Poudre High School's or- chestra placed high in a contest of- fered state wide. This year, howev- er, everyone has seen and heard a great improvement. Mr. Lashley teaches orchestra every day fourth hour. He commutes back and fourth from Cache La Poudre lu- nior High. Most of the students in orchestra have been playing an instrument for a long time. Students interested in orchestra start playing the sum- mer before seventh grade. The orchestra puts on four concerts a year. They put on, fall, winter, sping, and pre-contest concerts. This year during their concerts many members of the orchestra were suprised by the number of people that showed up for the con- certs, but what was most impressive were the number of well deserved standing ovations. Anyone that is interested in join- ing orchestra needs to have some experience, but also they need to have a great sense of dedication to their music. Great job this year to all of you in orchestra, keep up the good work. Poudre's Best! Do you remember all of those strange people that went marching down the halls playing the Poudre Fight Song? And what about those people that start to play Christmas songs in the middle of October? Well those people aren't strange they're just our very own band. And boy, do they put a lot of work into the spirit of Poudre High School. They all participate in the marching band the first quarter. They always get our teams fired up for the games, but they don't al- ways get the credit that they de- serve. Band meets every day fourth hour. And is directed by Mr. Stoll- steimer, or lovingly called Uncle Gary . The students claim that Mr. Stollsteimer is a great teacher and they can always count on him. The band will put on about six concerts a year, so they must work really hard to perform their best. On every Tuesday and Thursday the band and the orchestra work together. 107
