Science. Riders ' of hobbies Contrary to many students ' beliefs, teach- ers are people, too. Surprisingly enough, their out-of-school activities are similar to those of their students. Many faculty members pursued hobbies as a source of relaxation or exercise. Sports ap- pear to be popular. Both men and women may be spotted on the golf course, and a few have been brave enough to enter tourna- ments. Mr. Gary Cheesman ' s interest in ath- letics has led him to officiate in basketball. Mr. Robert Coscarelli combines talent with pleasure in his hobby of gourmet cook- ing. His interest stems from being reared in the restaurant business. Mrs. Donna Atkinson followed her hobby to Scandinavia. She enjoys traveling and camping and has attended three international camps in Scandinavia with the Girls Scouts of the U.S.A. Many teachers, both male and female, have tried their luck at various crafts. These include woodworking, weaving, hooking rugs, and serving. The blizzard of ' 78 brought a new hobby to Mrs. Pat Bowdell — snowmobiling. She and her husband also ride motorcycles. Faculty members have widely varied hob- bies. So don ' t be surprised if you see your teacher busy with something other than your homework. 62 Faculty

Four years of memories Senior. Not a scary word in itself, but as those long awaited final days are counted down, jitters start to appear in the fourth- year student ' s stomach. For many, the col- lege decision looms near, and their whole life is ahead. This year ' s graduating class encoun- tered many new experiences each year. As freshmen they braved the student revolt after a pep session. Their second year was highlighted with the highest magazine sales record ever. Struggling through their junior year ' s blizzard filled many seniors ' minds. But, as the spring came, so did thoughts of the prom, Evergreen. Their senior year, with the largest graduating class, was filled with accumulating more memories of those four short years to last a lifetime. Expectations run high as Evan Pethtel and Dan ' ' oung check out one of the many features offered at the French Club initiation dinner. Contributions to the Industrial Arts ' charity can drive are made by Rochelle Anderson and Greg Clancy to help those in need at Christmas time. Jotting down notes during a Health Careers club meeting is member Amy Hoover, as she readies her- self for an area club meeting in Indianapolis. Even though seniors won ' t be around to enjoy the use of the new greenhouse. Rick Shrock and Jack Atkin- son put in their share of work in its construction. 64 Seniors
