he senior class started preparing for their day of spirit week in the early weeks of summer. The sen- iors began by choosing their theme, Camp Villa Park. They then planned on having painting parties once a week throughout the summer. Although not all of these parties were successful, most of the senior class got involved and partici- pated in the event. The people who helped prepare for l'Camp Villa Park spent long hard hours in hopes that spirit day would be a success. Celia Giacobbi stated that, Spirit day was a joint effort by the majority of the senior class. Special efforts were made for spirit day by senior Francisco Tala- vera who designed and arranged the t- shirts and sweat shirts that were worn by a number of seniors. Also, special efforts were made by Brooke Stevens and Elaine Voulgares who prepared and set up the nature hike. The preparations on Cctober l8 start- ed at 5:00 p.m. Many of the students showed up at the school to contribute their time and efforts toward Camp Villa Park . The students stayed on campus until l l:00 decorating and keeping an eye out for a possible junior attack. When 7:00 a.m. rolled around, the sen- iors were back on campus again. Seniors sat around campus at their individual camp sites, eating breakfast. Karey Nix- on stood in front of the Student Center making pancakes for hungry seniors. The assemblies at Camp Villa Park included the singing of camp chants led by Sandra Johnson. The songleaders also did a routine, and Russell Mont- gomery tried to balance dishes on a tray but failed. The big hit of the assembly was the band, which consisted of Brian Et- ter, Rob Helton, Paul Kelly, and Charles Warner, whose music pulled the entire senior class up to dance. Thus, despite interferences, the Senior Spirit Day was a success. Jimmy Chesemore, Chris Gordon, Louis La Rocca, and Mike Keller do their ballet perfor- mance. The eight Nballerinas' performed for the student body at the lunch assembly. Happy, singing Spartans, Sandra Johnson and Mario Altonega, lead the senior class in camp songs at the nutrition assembly.
