CC 77 State champs, you done good oh, what a feeling in 1984! By Wendy Burum The 1984 Cresta Azul theme, Oh, What a Feeling! , describes what a great, new and exciting year it was. There were many pro- blems, but with each year there are problems. We weren't sure at first if there would be a yearbook, because the economy was in a recession and the rise in the cost of the book left the staff with an S800 deficit. With all the work put into the book, it is the best quality book that we could put out. It is the first personalized book ever at Blue Ridge. There were many new things brought to Blue Ridge, such as, MORP, You Done Good, and a football championship. The staff and I were very proud of this book, and we think all the effort and work was worth it. I hope this book will always remind you of your 1984 year at Blue Ridge and, Oh, what a feeling it was! Wendy Burum Editor Page 2. 1. Dennis Baker carries the ball against Round Valley. 2.
