A Spirited Week Quarterback Tammy Russel tosses a TD for the Senior Team. Spirit Week is always an interest- ing week, but the new ideas used in the 1985 Spirit Week made it one of the best yet. One of these new ideas was Nerd Day. We let the Nerd in all of us shine forth, bringing results that were sometimes quite startling. Also we had a Twin Day. It caused Dwenger to be flooded with a bar- rage of Twins, Triplets, Quadruplets etc. Even the teachers got into the act. The first Annual Walk-A-Thon was held on Tuesday and the weath- er couldn ' t have been better. It was a chance to socialize and have a good time. (With a little excercise thrown in.) Hawaiian Day and Color Day were the other theme days. The Powder Puff game was played be- tween the Juniors and the Seniors. A Tug Of War between the Sopho- mores and Freshmen preceded it. The Bon Fire burned many memo- ries into the minds of all that were there. The long awaited game was played on Friday night followed by the Homecoming Dance. All of the weeks events took a considerable amount of work. It was worth it though judging by the amount of en- joyment that everyone experienced. There was something for everyone. Spirit Week doesn ' t stagnate either. Every year new ideas are mixed in with the right amount of traditional ideas and the result is a Spirit Week like none other.

Coming Home In ' 85 Our fireworks display at half time was really fantastic. Home-com-ing n 1: a return home 2: the return of a group of people esp. on a special occasion to a place formerly frequented. That ' s how the Merriam-Webster Dictionary defines homecoming . To us who have experienced Home- coming 1985, though, it takes on a different meaning. It was much more involved than simply a return home . The actual Homecoming night was preceded by an appropri- ately named period of time known as Spirit Week. School spirit and hopes soared during Friday ' s pep session. Everyone felt ready for a victory. The sky that night was cloudy with some clouds nearly resting on the ground. The Homecoming theme, In the Air Tonight , was coming true in an unexpected way. But there was more in the air that night than clouds. Cheering and fan support battled with the clouds for air space. At half-time the Home- coming Court was introduced. Mi- chelle Drerup was announced as the Homecoming Queen. She and all the members of her court looked mar- velous. As the game continued vic- tory floated farther and farther from the Knight ' s grasp. Dwenger took the victory, winning with a score of 13-0. After the game many Saints went to the Homecoming Dance. The evening was enjoyed by all. All in all, much was in the air that night. Many people worked hard to make the week enjoyable. But most of all we had fun, which is what it was all about. fn Air The 1985 Homecoming Court and their parents.
