Checking the stage for difficulties one last time before graduation ceremonies is senior class sponsor Mr. Jerry Shreves. Taking her place at Blackford one last time before taking her place in history. Carrie Nof- ton files in to the strains of Pomp and Circum- stance. Senior Class officers — president, Resa Box- ell: treasurer. Lesa Clancy; vice-president. Cheryl Laymon; and secretary. Beth Lee — gather on the stage to practice. MEMORIE Cherish the Memories Cherish the memories of yester- day as you strive for a more perfect tomorrow was the motto of the graduation of the Class of ' 80. Wpmen ' s Lib scored a victory at Blackfo rd when all four senior offi- cers were girls. The majority of the Senior Executive Committee was also female. Pam Bales, Anita Cook, Linda Tyler, Allen Knox, Jeff Stroup, and the officers composed this group. Over four years, the Class of 80 gathered many memories. While freshmen, the baseball team was state runner ' s up. During the sopho- more year, the ' 78 blizzard occurred along with the coal strike. As ju- niors, the prom and looking forward to being seniors was on most minds. During the senior year, the football team won the state championship. These highlights and other memo- ries of first dates, prom nights, and homecoming games will remain in the minds of the members of the Class of ' 80 as they strive for a more perfect tomorrow. Mrs. Debbie Gabbard gets some practice in dealing with kids by being senior class spon- sor before she has her own in the fall. 32 Sponsors And Officers
