Homecoming 1987 was pretty hot. We started the fire with spirit week and by the final day we were a roaring inferno. Our school spirit was at its best. After winning our homecoming game against Pomeroy 28 to 6, nothing could douse the flames. The Band performed at half-time -to a tropical theme. The Homecoming Dance was a real scorcher, too! We will all remember it as the theme suggests, “Always.” The Royalty this year was Queen Janet Halsey, Princesses Angie Reeves, Kim Martin, and Colleen Sullivan. Aaron Cunningham was the 1988 Mr. Football. Cur Glory Cays!!

IIHI BAISEBS When a truck full of potatoes pulled in front of the school, we knew we were in for it and then some. The spud sale” kicked off the school year fund raiser season. For an entire month the AHS athletes spent a lot of free time and elbow grease sacking, selling, and delivering spuds. As the spud sale came to a successful end, Tom Watt came to the front door of the homes of Asotin residents. Band and chorus members turned from musicians to door to door salesmen. The Tom Watt fund raiser was a big hit. Linda Carpenter, who was one of the biggest sellers with $400.00 said. “It’s a pain selling it sometimes but the benefits are great. In the category of class fund raisers the field was broad. The seniors, always in need of money, were busy in '88. During basketball season they were busy selling cake raffle tickets, chances to win a stained glass piece, and the “ever popular” paws. The juniors brought back the past by putting on a talent show, the first for a long time at A.H.S. The show was a big success, drawing an enthusiastic crowd and some great talent. Joe Sandy, Philippe Thai, and Brett Bond showed their considerable talents as well as Joe Shaw, Linda Carpenter and many others who all did a great job. The annual freshman slave auction brought out the worst in the upperclassmen, as it usually did, and provided the freshmen witn their first high school fund raiser. After being sold, the slaves were decorated as nerds, punks, nerds, animals and nerds. The FFA, FHA, Paper Annual staff and Honor Society also had their fund raisers. The FFA sold oranges during the winter, the FHA had a bolloon boutique, featuring balloons with messages as well as door mats. The Honor Society provided concessions at ball games and the Paper Annual staff sold holiday messages and chocolate Easter bunnies. Overall, the students of A.H.S. earned enough money to keep the groups, functions, and games going and had fun in the process! Fund raisers Student Life Above: Kim Smith sorts out Tom Watt orders.
