Bad weather does little to dampen the spirit Homecoming Royalty Queens are introduced to the spectators at the game. SHS Homecoming festivities were held in the cold, rainy weather. A field display, an eight foot Rocket holding the bloody head of a ram, was made by some of the Pep Club members, A dummy of a Ralston player was hung from the gym ceiling, Although the bonfire had to be moved into the gym, many Rocket fans came to show their spirit, The guest speaker was Mark Weiler, a graduate of SHS.Coaches and football players also gave pep talks to arouse the spirit of the students. Three witches brewed up a Rocket victory by using the ingredients listed on a poster made by a Rocket fan. Half-time entertainment at the game was provided by the Band.
