But jumping into the fray cold turkey with this tough little group was something else. That first day last spring was horrible. They shot ner- vous daggers at me with suspicious eyes: l'You're not making newspaper people out of us! they seemed to challenge. And of course I wondered if these kids would ever soften to my ways, could we possibly work together to make a book, or would it all self-destruct by mid-year? The results are before you. They reflect the efforts of this small staff. They learned, then pitched- together in a determined effort. I'm very proud of them, because they published a large book under extreme pressures which mangled all of us at times fsomehow, the job seemed to grow bigger through the year, while the staff dwindledj. That left the task to the dedicated few. l'm thankful they stuck it through. and that their parents understood feven if they didn't reallyj. A heartfelt thanks to these dedicated zanies: ftop, from leftl the patient and resilient newcomer, Brenda johnson, the deeply dedicated Claudie Sterner fone of my hardest-working editors, everj, Steve fMr. get- the-job-done-in-the-clutchj Grachan, Tessa Gournay, fwhose bright smiles and willingness to always learn buttressed usj, and talkative Mischelle Hall. Our photo guys also sav- ed us. Their work was rocky at first, but blossom- ed, and the hours they spent in the darkroom well, there's a rumor they can now see in the dark. anywhere. Thanks, Dave Alexander, Keith Schultz, and Kevin Leavell for some great sports, people and mood photography, Thanks. Dave. for the great color photography of the entire opening section. All these super people have solidified the tradition of yearbooking at Big Sky. Glenn junkert Sunrise Adviser 233

Some were filled with while others drooped wffh sadness. Many contained a pet'- sonality within themselves. familiar face could be recognized acros the room. Sometimes it was someone they had met in classes. games, clubs. or at the weekend party before. Wherever you may be. somewhere. somehow. you would see a face you had recognized. The person did not have to be wearing a lettermans jacket, 'I'-shirt, or a booster button for you tolttknow them. The faces all became familiar you received a sense of homeness here. A sense of loyalty grew. Big Sky became a place for everyone 3 teachers. students, and administrators. Everyone belonged. All the faces in the hallways, classes, and cafeteria were a part of BSI-I. We learned, experienced the year, but. most importantly. we stuck together like a family.
