T.F.H.S. Brings Out Our True Colors Everyone enjoyed watching the faculty guess who their secret Santa was. Senior togetherness . . . Ron Rowe, Sharon Stachelek, Kyle Tompkins, and Tricia Dugre are always smiling in school. . . . and so. Turners Falls High School, we dedicate our 1988 yearbook to you. During the past six years, we ' ve come to think of this school as a second home. A great deal of our lives was spent in these halls, in these classrooms and best of all with you. You ' ve helped us grow to become ready to leave here with a sense of confidence in ourselves and in the town we came from. You helped bring back the pride in our school that has been missing — the pride that lets you hold up your head and say, Yes, I ' m from Turners! Everyone was a part in making our senior year the best possible school year that anyone could imagine. We have never felt closer to our teachers, administrators, and to all our friends. We worked together. We were cohesive. When the going got tough, we all stuck it out. Our class is now a whole. There has been a sense of unity established that makes this high school a great place in which to be a part. You people will never fully realize just how big a role you have played in our lives. You are all special people and not one of you will be forgotten. Thank you. Turners Falls for some of the best memories of our lives. Mr. O ' Riley is presented his Johnny Carson look-alike award by his secret Santa, Shawn McCabe, Dedication 15

Pretty In Pink Junior Prom ' 87 Silence filled the room os each person envisioned the perfect way to transform the U-Mass auditorium into an elegant ballroom. We were all striving for the same goal; to make our Junior Prom more special and exciting than any other in the history of our school. That was our dream, and there was a long road ahead of us. We worked hard as a class raising money, planning, pre- paring, and decorating. With the outstanding support of our advisor, Mrs. Crofton, we were ready in time for May ninth. Hundreds of balloons and streamers In an array of soft pastel colors filled the eyes of each boy and girl who en- tered the room. The similing faces of friends who looked more glamorous than ever, gleamed above all. Everyone sat down to a delicious dinner of either prime rib or boneless chicken filet. While chatting and giggling, peo- ple finished their meals and were ready for the fun to begin. The band was ready to play, and everyone was ready to dance. Couples danced to the soft, sweet sounds of Cin- tilla. Friends rocked together on the dance floor to the more upbeat, rhythmic songs and no one was afraid to let go and be themselves. Never Say Goodbye was our 1987 Prom theme, and like not wanting to say good-bye that night we will never want to say good-bye to our school . . . Becky Moore, Sue Avery, and Tonia Corey are out on the town! “Aren ' t we the cutest! Evie Casey and Joe Bucci Rick Pervere, Tim Waish, and Scott Bruso showing off on the dance fioor. Lisa Sabine and Janice Radzuik are enjoying every min- ute of it. Jim Brule is always a sharply dressed man. 14 Junior Prom

Good As Gold Mrs. Crofton Carol Crofton has been the 1988 Class Advisor for our en- tire four years of high school. She has put much of her time into making our class success- ful and even more, our four ' years exciting. She has been our friend, and we never could have made it through without her. Many fund-raisers were at- tempted, and most ended up successful only because Mrs. Crofton pushed everyone to turn in their money. We raised enough to put on a super prom, and there were no big last minute complica- tions. We are now in the final stretch heading for gradu- ation; and with only one last project, the class gift, we have enough money for | something special and have ' many interesting ideas. Without the leadership of Mrs. Crofton, we would have been in a slump. She is a super lady who deserves great rec- ognition. Mrs. Scott The 1988 yearbook would probably not hove been o book with out Mrs. Scott. She has been the ideal advisor,, pushing us to meet deadlines when we really thought we had no chance. With her help we have created this book. Even though it is her first year of experience at the job, she came on like an expert showing great leadership. With her busi- ness mind, she was able to initiate an effective advertising campaign and catch the smallest errors made by the year- book committee and the Jostens Company. The whole yearbook staff admires you, Mrs. Scott. We thank you for your help and under- standing and wish you luck with your future year- books. 16 Good As Gold
