Ummgigmf i ' '- A Never Ending Dream, Appears Neither sleet, snow, cold, or dead of night can deter the spirit and enthusiasm of the Bears as they turned out' en masse for the final activities of Homecoming week 1985. The Bears played the Wheatridge Farmers Friday at Reed Street Stadium in record low temperatures and blustering winds. Even with the cold, fans packed the bleachers and many resorted to stand- ing in the aisles to see the game and to cheer near their friends. At halftime, fill Mickey and lim May were announced as the Homecoming King and Queen and the Chorale sang the schools new alma mater that was selected especially for this year. The Bears dominated the game with an offensive attack of four touchdowns, three in the first half, that stifled the momentum of the Farmers. This win had a special historical importance since it was the first time in seven years that the Bears won their Homecoming. Winning the Home- Homecoming coming game was really cool because it really added a spirit of pride throughout the school, stated Angie Iackson. Saturday night the dance was held in the gymnasium amid six inches of snow outside. For many of those who attended, the evening started with a luxurious din- ner around town. The snow and ice caused transportation problems so many arrived after the dance had started. The theme of this year's dance was The Nev- er Ending Dream , the theme song was the 1970's hit Qur Song by Elton lohn. A live band kept the Bears dancing rather than the usual disc-jockey spinning re- cords. Queen and King, lill Mickey and I im May, presided over the evening and were crowned in a beautiful, emotional ceremony. The dance culminated an excited fren- zy of spirit-filled unity for the Bears. As Leslie Dubois observed, The Homecom- ing dance this year was great! It highlight- ed a fantastic week at our school. Winning the Homecoming game was a nice end to a great week, commented Cory Ryckman. lim May enthused, I didnt expect to become Homecoming King, but I am glad because it turned out to be a special experience, especially with fill.

Creek Homecoming is a time for the students to unite together, share school spirit, and have a jammin' time, exclaimed senior left Heiby. Homecoming is an annual event that brings back the alumni to renew old ac- quaintances and reminisce about school memories. It is also a time for current stu- dents to go all out and celebrate their time of the year . Spirit week was filled with many excit- ing activities. There were events such as assemblies, athletic events, dress-up days, and the homecoming parade. These events were planned and put together by the Senate members. The dress-up days consisted of Beach day, Hero day, Clash day, Slob day, and Green and Gold day. Spirit week was really great. ft showed some deep, intellectual thought and cre- ativity in each daily event, commented sophomore Matt Higgerson. I though spirit week was extra special because everyone participated in the ex- citement and enthusiasm, stated sopho- more Steffany Tucker. The Homecoming assembly prepared the student body and administration for the excitement of the parade, the football S I Week game, and the dance. The assembly end- ed with three airband performances. Iron Maiden won the airband contest. The members of the group were Kirk Smith, Dan Bangert, leff Thomas, Sean Noonan, and Chris Morales. Whitney Traylor, as Michael l ackson also did a fan- tastic job. Several faculty members per- formed the wild and zany The Home- coming Queen has a Gun and added extra pizzaz to the assembly. Being in the assembly gave me a chance to express myself and the music I love while at the same time entertaining Bear Creek as a whole, enthused senior Chris Morales. l'The Homecoming parade was a small representation of our school's many im- pressive attributes, remarked sophomore Kris Zietz. The parade began with the marching band and was followed by the Homecoming Royalty, class floats, club floats, and students' decorated cars. l amie Gelwick added, Homecoming parades are the basis for my entire educational experience. lay Pearson did a great job of summing whole exciting week in a single WOW! up the word, F Homecoming week has always been great, and this year is no exception. lt's sad to think this is the last one for the seniors of '86, expressed Senior lohn lor- dan.
