In September the POST staff began a month-long advertising campaign which culminated in reaching their $2,000 goal. In March the staff began their book sales campaign. Those who were given awards for their salesmanship were Pam Owens, Marlene Spencer, Chris Scheffer and Crystal Heit. The POST staff spent many hours designing pages, writing copy, typing and cropping pictures. The staff chose Rhonda Gillmore and Janice Ingrum as their most outstanding members. This award was based on cooperation with other staff members, efficiency and the amount of time devoted to the book. Members pictured on these pages are involved in the many activities necessary to produce a yearbook. Pictured at the left is the editor, Rhonda Gillmore. 79 Do You Know Where You’re Going to?
