ELEBRATION OF SPIRIT We need more paper! How does this sign look? Where ' s the tope?! One word could sunnmarize a typical Thursday night during Spirit Week - CONFUSION!! Streamers, pa- per tape, balloons, pant, scissors, and markers everywhere, people running and above all a radio ' s play- ing full-blast contributes to the may- hem. By the evening of D-day (Decorating Day), most of the class is in one hall with everybody doing something. Then someone shouts, We only have fifteen more min- utes! Everyone scrambles over the streamers, paper scraps, paint, and tape (that by now is covering the entire floor) and tries to get the hall in some sort of order. Only ten min- utes left? Someone start cleaning! - the shout is hardly heard over the voices and the music. In the few minutes that are left mass hysteria takes place - the streamers on the floor and millions of tiny pieces of pa- per hove to be picked up, the mark- ers gathered together, and the spilled paint has to be cleaned up. The day arrives and the hall is in or- der spirit is in the air as the students observe the halls, and the judges judge the halls. This year the seniors held up tradition and came in first with Senior Celebration. Juniors placed second with Fun In The Sun. The Sophomores followed closely with The Sophomore Space Shuttle and the freshmen placed fourth with their theme of The Ani- mals of ' 88. But more important than the placing is the teamwork and friendships that happen when decorating the halls, and the fun of being with all your friends. 1) The Senior Sign-oft 2) The Juniors celebrate their spirit with their second place hall 3) Seniors Marcy Goyette, Momca Sharpe and Caren Manning cheering on the Senior hall 4) An additional member of the Freshman Class who showed up at hall decorating 5) Senior Tina Collyer - the epitome of school spirit 6) The Seniors started off their prize-winning hall with a three foot tall cake 7) Darfh Vadar made an appearance at the Sophomore ' s hall 8) Is that Steve Pisani ' ' THF HALLS 13

RUE BLUE SPIRIT! Spirit Weeic, which lasted from Tuesday September 25 to Friday September 28 this year, was a terrific success A party atmo- sphere reigned as the students of BHS enthusiastically threw them- selves into the week long cele- bration of school spirit This year was especially terrific because of the great number of spirited un- derclassmen, as well as upper- classmen, who took the concept of spirit week with a great amount of energy and cheer Hat, Socle, and Tie Day began Spirit Week on Tuesday with a great show of participation Multi- colored, mismatched socks were paired with knit, striped and flourescent ties and the ensem- ble was topped by a variety of hats. On Wednesday, Costume Day, it seemed as if BHS was on a creative high. Clowns, cowboys. superheroes, and surgeons stalked the halls alongside ban- dits and thieves. As usual. Punk Day on Thursday was one of the most entertaining days to walk down the halls Ev- erywhere you looked the halls were crowded with students who went all out with their creative talents Multi-colored spiked hair as well as heels were abundant, combined with lots of black leather and miles of dog chains. Blue and White Day on Friday was the culmination of all the spir- it witnesses throughout the week It was also the day in which the most people participated, espe- cially boys because students only had to wear clothing in our school colors The day and week was brought to an emotional finale at the rousing Pep Rally during the last period of school. 14 SPIRIT WHK
