Show Time Lights! Camera! Action! It ' s show time, one of the facets in making these the Best of Times. Mow many times have we each been to the Cinemas on a Friday night with friends or a date? Hundereds? Yet every time it ' s always exciting to see a new movie or, maybe one of your all time favorites. We will also remember the concerts. Many of us went to see our favorite groups in concert. Many students went and saw The Beastie Boys, U2, Whitesnake, The Fat Boys, Heart, Club nouveau, and anything else you may have caught on their way through Iowa or Illinois. The concert scene is always a great time to be with friends, to share in the fun. Other very special times are those productions put on within Rocky. Being a part of a play or a concert, or watching a friend make being a part of Rocky fun to many students. Show time makes these years the Best of Times so. Lights!, Camera!, and most of all. Action!

Any Time Many of us, after doing all of our homewo rk, often have time on our hands. This time is usually spent with friends, watching TV, out at the mall or with our families. Everything that we do during these times falls into the category. Any Time. This extra time that we sometimes have usually turns out to be the best of times. One thing that many Rocky students were involved in this year was the First Annual Water Volleyball Tournament. Things were a little wild at the beginning but all of the partici¬ pants soon got involved and it turned into a fierce competition, but a lot of fun. Another thing that many of us often do with extra times, but few of us will admit to, is toilet papering friends houses. It often adds some challenge and excitment to a night where not much is going on. We do lots of things as teenagers which make these the Best of Times. Many memories we will keep with us are those that were established in the part of our lives known as Any Time. The water volleyball winners were: P. Young- quist, B. Smith, T. Thoms, M. Wright, C. Coo- lidge, M. Stem. Student Life
