The first step Winding Its way through many obstacles, friendships, and memo- ries, the long path of life offers us the chance to grow with each new step. For BSHS students, the first step towards a new year came on Aug. 22, when 417 students en- rolled. Immediately filling our lock- ers with snapshots, posters, and school books, we were making memories without realizing it. The next step was to get involv- ed—whether it meant participat- ing on the volleyball team or finding that perfect after-school Job. Other activities—football games, Homecoming, and a con- stant stream of homework—gently guided us into the swing of things. On a larger level, BSHS stepped up its academic standards, with a get-tough absentee policy and a shift to more traditional English courses. Although there were many steps to cross on the individual level, there were greater barriers met by those around the world ... 2 ♦ Opening Showing their spirit: C. Courtney. R. McConlco. M.

Opening ♦ 3 All together now. Senior Al Cummings leads eight wrestlers wrestling In the Stuco Christmas assembly. The next step On a national level, various steps slowed our pace as we ex- perienced worry and frustration last summer when Shiite Muslims held American citizens hostage aboard a 747. We also came one step closer to a summer without baseball during a one-day strike. Shattering the stability of our al- lies in Mexico, an earthquake took Its toll on an entire nation. 1985 was also the year when air travel and airport safety became questionable. Stepping Into the spotlight, the AIDS controversy took the nation by storm when movie star Rock Hudson died of the disease during the summer. The frightening Chicago Bears came out of the woods to capture Super Bowl XX with the help of William Refrigerator Per- ry and Jim McMahon, stomping the Patriots, 44-10. Closer to home, the K.C. Royals captured a great victory when they came from behind to defeat the St. Louis Cardinals. However big or small the step, we all found ourselves venturing one step closer” to the goals we plan for the future. Let' show them what we've gotl Seniors Wendl Coffman, Tonya Ferrell, Brldgette Greer and junior Kellie Hulsey show enthusiasm at a basketball pep assembly. 4 ♦ Opening Oo Hawallanl Junior Dawn Pickett shows off her lets during Stuco spirit week.

With petitions starting to circulate, students realized that Homecom- ing was just a short step away and started to feel the spirit. Although Spirit Week wasn’t well received, the Pep Rally Oct. 4 pulled stu- dents together and got them ready for Saturday—the big day. Rising early to the bright morning sun and high winds, the class floats, attendants, and can- didates all arrived at the high school ready for the parade through town. Afterwards, a large crowd gathered to view the floats and show their support at a pep rally. Kicking off at 2 p.m., the Braves rallied to a 34-0 victory over Otta- wa while the Sophomores cap- tured the float competition ... Congratulations!

For the first time ever, a Home- coming King, Pat Picked, was honored. After decorations, the commons was ready for the Homecoming fi- nale, the dance. Remembering past times, our Glory Days were portrayed through various pictures hung to remind us of past experiences. Whether it was listening to the music from Sound Dynamics, or enjoying a personal moment with that special someone, the dance went over well. Following the dance, students opted to eat at various places such as Mario's, GoJo's, Red Lobster, and Annie's. Show ut your white .

This year’s Stuco-sponsored Courtwarming was held Dec. 17, featuring the theme, Twas the dance before Christmas. Approximately 150 stu- dents attended. Music was provided by a disc jockey, playing the hits to entertain everyone. As the evening progressed, the time came for the crowning of the king and queen. The suspense came to an end at promptly 8:30 p.m. when the 1984 queen Robin Roberts placed the tiara on Lisa Pickert, who repre- sented the girls' basketball team. Santa Claus (Clausle Smith) crowned Steve Christensen as king, the JCL representative. Many students wound up their festive evening around 9:30 p.m. and went to various places to eat—Annie's, the Plaza, GoJo's or the Peacock Pavllllon. All in all, the dance entertained those at- tending while spreading holiday spirit. Christmas Royalty: Row 1: Steve Christensen, and Tina Wilson Row 2: Brian Landers. Lisa Pickert.

The play premiered Oct. 31, fitting well with Halloween spirit, and continued to show through Nov. 3. Choosing this play was an easy choice for director Bari Foote, because of the available talent. Ms. Foote cast senior Randy Freeman, who has been active in drama for four years, to play the evil Dracula. Being chosen to play Dracula was the thrill of my high school acting career, said Freeman. The play was not only a success because of Its characters, but also because of its technical effects. The set for the play fea- tured such elaborate props as a rotating bookcase, and technical effects included special lights and the use of a fog machine. Senior Burt Tabor, who designed the set, said it was the most com- plicated one the department had produced. The fog machine was run by Robert DeLeon, with other special effects by Hardie Loehr. Other members of the crew includ- ed Tina Wilson, Albert Linan, Steve Johnson, Alan Anderson, and Rod- ney Randolph. When the final curtain had been drawn, Ms. Foote said she was pleased with the work of her crew. I would do it all over again,” she said. —Dana Jones Looking (or Ronflold.

David Stephan, Amy Smith, Shawn Hall, and Kristi Finley spend part ot a weekend at the Stuco Morp. Badnessl Junior James Franklin enjoys his weekend by shining the pride and joy he re celved tor Christmas. We love weekends After five long days of pay- ing attention and focusing, a student Is ready for 48 hours of good times and memories. Weekends provide a short, needed break from the tedious classroom scene. Close friends find themselv- es enjoying many of the area's “hot spots,” such as the local Pizza Hut, Price's Bridge, Annie’s, and the Pla- za. But weekends are not just a period for spending mon- ey. Many students earn mon- ey by holding weekend jobs that take away from their va- cation time. Senior Shawn Walker feels negative about donating many of his Satur- days to working at Brewers. “It takes away my free time, but Saturdays do bring good hours, he said. Describing the ‘‘perfect” weekend, senior Deanna Parker said, The perfect weekend would start out by going out and partying with my friends Friday night, and spending Saturday night with my favorite guy at an expen- sive restaurant with candle- light. She added that Sun- day Is for relaxing and dreaming of good times to come. Until that last bell rings In May for summer va- cation. weekends will remain a valued part of every stu- dent's life.

Being a Sen- ior Is . . . special, it must be special or It wouldn't cost so much! To begin the year, in order to become a more spirited senior, one must not forget to purchase the senior shirt, $12. Next on the list of needs for sen- iors Is pictures. Most senior pic- tures run from $100 to $150. These Items are sometimes called ■ essentials’’ for seniors. Also, one must not forget the wonderful evening called Grad Night at Worlds of Fun. This fun- filled evening could run from $15 to $30. depending on your eating and game-playing habits. Of course, to graduate you need a cap and gown. Rental cost: $10. But if you want anyone to come see you parade around In this fashionable cap and gown, you need to purchase annouce- ments. The averaae senior basket Is approximately $60. So, when we total all of these figures, the average cost of be- Ing a senior comes to the low price of $200, and this does not include all the parties and fun!

As every school year passes by, we step closer to the one goal we set our sights on long ago—graduation. For members of the Class of 1986, the hard work paid off on Tuesday, May 20, when they each took part in Com- mencement. Not only does the actual cere- mony serve as the fulfillment of a dream, but the before and after segments of the special evening add to the enjoyment. To make the evening more special, seniors found themselves mailing invita tlons, planning parties, and mak- ing sure the caps and gowns were just the right size. The evening of May 20—set for perfection as the sunset added the perfect touch of softness—went by quickly as valedictorian Tonya Ferrell and sa lutatorian Jonna Buck addressed the crowd with special messages. Afterwards, graduates received their diplomas from members of the USD 204 board of education and presented the class gift, and electronic memo board, to the school. —Tara McCrink Featured speaker.

We knew that now, we had to start all over again ... at the bot- tom of the totem pole. Starting out, we all felt the same nervousness and each one of us contemplated the possibility of tripping in the commons, falling down the stairs, or dropping our trays In the cafeteria and embar- rassing ourselves in front of every- one else. All of us were certain that we wouldn’t be accepted and that the upperclassmen would do nothing but make fun of us. Soon, we realized that we were mistaken. All the teachers and the upperclassmen were friendly and treated us kindly. They weren't the monsters we had made them out to be I Sure, we had more than our share of embarrassing moments, and we had a lot of jokes and pranks played on us, but the upperclassmen proved to be very helpful and we came to know them well and consider them as our friends. As yet another school year passes by and summer vacation Is In our thoughts constantly, the sophomore class says, thank you to all of the upperclassmen and staff for their friendship and helpfulness throughout the year. — Becky Rehm Isn’t It 2:35 yet?

Whether you were in class, at a wrestling match or football game, sophomore spirit met up with sophomore action to form an awesome combination. In cross country and basketball, we had the drive of Bill Downing. During football season, we were put on the edge with the skills of Scott Geary and Tony Carver.

To start the year off, the group had a table at enrollment. In addition, they honored those stu- dents who made the honor rolls. Wanting something fun for the club, Kayettes again sponsored Val Pals the week of Valentine’s Day. As a fund-raiser, the group again sponsored the Powder Puff game. At this event, the senior team won and the club raised $597.68. Fur- thermore, Kayettes sponsored the canned food drive at BSHS and gathered more than 2,500 pounds of food for the needy. Exhausted.

Prior to the start of the school year, McMackin and junior Tara McCrink attended a workshop at CMSU to gain ideas for this year's book. Throughout the year, the staff faced constant deadlines, and they worked hard to print pictures and to write clever captions. The staff also utilized a new production system this year, allow- ing the yearbook printer to typeset all copy.

NHS honors 25 Under a new set of membership rules, the BSHS chapter of National Honor Society initiated 25 new members. According to the new constitu- tion, a student must have a GPA of 3.2 or better to be eligible for NHS. To be considered for membership, the student was required to submit an essay to a faculty committee. This committee then evaluated each student on a point system in order to select new members. Under this point system, grade point average counts for 50 percent of the student's points while teacher evaluations count 35 percent and extra-curricular activit- ies count 15 percent. It's almost time to start. Prospective NHS members await the start ot the ceremony with their sponsors. Remembering past memories.

We didn't play up to our capabilities, said Coach Joe Mintner. The Braves, however, weren't disappoint- ed about everything. Senior Rodney McConico led the EKL in rushing with 1,261 yards, and senior Jerold Fletcher was third with 679 yards. In total offense the Braves were second in the EKL. Defensively, Bonner was third against the rush, allow- ing opponents 106.9 yards per game. Four Braves were named to the all-EKL squad: Fletcher was first-team defense; Andy Adkins, second-team offen- se; and John Benz, second- team offense. Coach Mintner has high hopes for the '86 season.

Hopes for a first- place finish were shattered after a highly controversial line call, denying the Bravettes a chance for the ti- tle. Completing pool play with a 2-1 record, the Bravettes gained a spot in the semi- finals and a chance to hold the championship title for two consecutive years. Opening with an easy win, the Bravettes showed spectators what they could do with a 15-2, 15-5 victory over Parsons, who had a 25- 4 record. The outlook for the Bravettes' second pool match was good as they led Hays 11-6 in the first game. Hays came back to defeat them, 15-13, 15-5. The Bravettes entered their third and final match in the pool play with much deter- mination. A win was neces- sary to continue into the semi-finals. But once again these girls proved that they do their best under pressure. They defeated EIDorado with a quick 15-2, 15-8 score. Bonner then met Miege in the semi-finals. Meige won the first game, 15-9, and in the second game Bonner had Meige down 9-1. But the Stags game back, and after a controversial call, they won 15-11. Coach Vaughn didn’t use the call as an excuse, saying her team should have won anyway. In the third-place game, Buhler won the first match 15-11. But the rest was all Bonner. They dominated the last two games, 15-5, 15-8, to win the match. —Monty Chayer Mind on her work. Senior Amy Smith concentrates on the upcoming serve. Oreat form.

We finished the season where we anticipated, said Coach Alton Morey. The team was paced by six returning lettermen: Christensen, Bill Downing, Richard Brillhart, Charles Antlll, Aaron Brizendine, and Al Cummings. The squad was also helped by the addition of junior transfer student Larry Arnold. Christensen turned in a sea son of strong performances. In September, he captured the Bonner Invitational with a time of 11:12 and became the first BSHS runner to do so since Ray Mosier in 1979. At the EKL meet, Christensen placed second while the squad took fifth. At this meet, both Arnold and Downing finished in the top twenty. Christensen went on to compete in regional and state competition. At the state meet in Manhattan, he placed sixth with a time of 16.31. In addition, Christensen was named to the all-Metro squad at the end of the year while Coach Morey was named to the all-Metro coaching association. As a whole, the squad turned in strong perfor- mances at meets in Paola and Aquinas, where they captured third-place fin- ishes. Losing only one senior, Al Cummings, the outlook looks strong for next year. —Joe Jenkins Holding his pace. Junior Steve Christensen runs the course at the Mlege Invitational. 4 Resting up.

Bonner netted 39 percent of their shots from the field and made 51 percent from the line. There were highlights to the season, though, and the biggest perhaps was the se- lection of junior Andy Adkins to the all-EKL team. Adkins earned his way to the honor by leading the Braves in scoring with 272 points for a 12.9 average. Adkins wasn't the only force to be reckoned with as senior Jerold Fletcher hit the boards hard all year. Fletcher came down with 187 rebounds on the year. However, rebounding wasn't his only strong suit as he was close behind Adkins with a 11.2 scoring average. “With the talent we had, we could have been more successful. — Jerold Fletcher, senior.

Although the squad led the EKL at various times in the season, they were forced to finish in third place. The squad was led by a crop of strong seniors: Tammy and Kathy Bates, Kristi Finley, Amy Smith, and Wendl Coffman. One of the high points for the squad came at the DeSoto Tourney where they captured first place with vic- tories over Harmon, St. Scholastica, and Olathe South. The leding scorer for the squad was Kathy Bates, who averaged 18.3 points for 366 points on the year. In their careers at BSHS, Bates and Finley virtually rewrote the record books.

For as young as we were, we had a very good year,” said head coach Tim McGinnis. The team's success was due to a strong nucleus of talent. Wrestlers such as Jay Verdict, Jeff Holloway, and David Blackwell provided the push for victory while Mike Means, Scott Geary, Dennis Hunt, and Jason Tlnberg put in great efforts to help the team reach Its goals. To highlight the year, the team took six wrestlers to the state championship In Wichita: freshman Jasbon Tlnberg; sophomores Scott Geary and Jay Verdict; and seniors Mike Means, Jeff Holloway, and Da vid Blackwell. Thanks to David Blackwell, no hope was lost at the state meet. In the 167-pound divi- sion, David brought home the state title. Three of the state qualifiers held top records during the year. Verdict ended his sea son with a 28-3 record. Holloway wound his last year up with a 23-8 mark. Last, but not least, Blackwell went out in style with an undefeated record of 28-0 and the state championship. The team and their coaches went through a lot of hard work and practice and it all paid off. Coach McGinnis said, This year Coach Murphy and I had fun coaching this group because they were like a fam- ily. And It looks like we can be expecting a lot more from this family” because Coach McGinnis is planning on nine returning lettermen and three state qualifiers for next year. —Richard Laing Ready tor the takedown.

One of the areas which hin- dered the squad was pitch- ing. Coach John Hecka- thorne, in summing up his squad's 4-17 record, said: I was somewhat disappointed, not because of the losing season, but because we didn't improve as a team. Shawn Hall, junior, led the way for the squad in the hitting department with a .411 average. Hall also had 14 RBI's. Senior David Blackwell supplied the power with a team-leading seven home runs. Steve Johnson was close behind both of them with o .313 average and five home runs. Next year, we ought to have a fairly solid ball team.

Team achievements were up this year as the squad placed fourth at the Maur Hill Tournament. The squad also won the Olathe Triangular and posted a five-year low score of 326 at the EKL match. Probably one of the biggest disappointments for the squad came when senior Eric Reynolds missed a chance at the state tourney by just one stroke. Sophomore Richard Laing, however, led the way in indi- vidual highlights. He placed fifth at both Maur Hill and Washburn. Laing also made it to the state tourney with a tenth place finish at regionals, shooting an 83. He finished the season by tying for eighth at state, shooting a 78.

Another year of high school is over and now you are ready for some fun in the summer of '85. Overlooking the rainy weather, you and some friends head to the movies to see frisky Michael J. Fox in “Back to the Future” or maybe the gorgeous Slyvester Stallone in “Rambo.” Unfortunately, both movies are sold out. Now what are you going to do? There are no Sandstone concerts tonight; it’s too late to head to Worlds of Fun, and no one is hungry. Why not go shopping? Guc- ci bags in hands, you and the gang eager- ly head to Oak Park to buy that black denim mini-skirt and some red-and-black checkered pants.

Cruising Bonner Springs on a Saturday night has never been considered a ‘‘big thrill.” The word “dead” better describes these fun-filled nights. But on Oct. 26, 1985, Bonner Springs had good reason to be “dead, as did the entire Kansas City area. All eyes were glued to the television as the Kansas City Royals took on the St. Louis Cardinals in the sixth game of the World Series, the Show Me Showdown. The Royals took the game In the bottom of the ninth, when pinch hitter Dane lorg blooped a single Into right field, scoring two runs. The final score: Kansas City, 2; St. Louis, 1. Because the Cardinals held the lead 1-0 going into the ninth Inning, many Kansas City fans felt that the Royals’ season was over. Senior Billy Kelly attended the sixth game and until the ninth inning felt the Royals had a slim chance of winning. ‘‘When they got the lead-off man on, I felt they had a chance,” he added. The seventh game added to the Royals’ remarkable list of accomplishments as they shut the Cardinals out, 11-0. The en- tire nation was shocked. Ignoring criticism and unfavorable odds, the Royals had clinched the 1985 World Series title. The fat lady finally sung the blues, Royal blue. How can anyone forget the post- season play of the 1985 season? The Royals faith and dedication showed as it was packed full of strong memories and spectacular plays. Topping the list was the performance from 21-year-old Bret Saberhagen, as he captured the World Series MVP, the Cy Young Award, two World Series victories, a chat with Presi- dent Reagan, and the birth of his first son, Drew William. But he’s not the only Royal that shined. George Brett's hot bat pound- ed many pitchers and his spectacular fielding enabled him to capture the 1985 American Gold Glove Award. Frank White and Buddy Biancalana made a ferocious double-play duo. As their strength began to show, Steve Balboni baffled pitchers with many key hits, while Willie Wilson stole even more bases and robbed many hitters of base hits. But the whole team deserved credit and Kansas City knew it as over 300,000 fans showed up to support their Royals in their victory parade at Liberty Memorial on Oct. 28. Despite overheating cars and players blanketed In ticker tape, fans showed their gratitude for all their Royal idols. The 1-70 Series was over, but it will not be soon forgotten. The unique managing style of Dick Howser brought Kansas City their first World Championship. After the 1985 season of unbelievable comebacks, one can only wonder what the ’86 season will bring. Junior Brian Hutchinson stated, ‘‘It’s about time the Royals did it. They’re going to do it again next year.” —Wendi Coffman Hunch punch... Sandstone... Coke Classic... Mixers... All smiles.

As a preference, most of the working students at BSHS hold jobs in the Bonner Springs Edwardsville area at such locations as Dairy Queen, Stephan Standard, IGA or Wal-Mart. Working at the Kaw Valley Manor nursing home in Bonner, junior Julia Carmack explained why she needed money when she said, “I have to pay for my car in- surance, and I’m saving for the future.” On the other hand, The money I earn goes directly into my partying fund,” explained senior Brutus Utter. Legacy members enjoy work Unfortunately, many students at BSHS work not because they enjoy it, but because they have to. However, for six students at BSHS, work is anything but drudgery—they’re a part of the eight-member band, Legacy. Practicing three times a week, Legacy members Mike Buening, James Franklin, Jerry Dalebout, Joey Martinez, Ryan Hitchcock, and Curtis Nall explained that when they play they are looking more for having a good time then making a lot of money. Junior Jerry Dalebout, who runs the band’s lighting and sound said, “We are just out to have a good time. There are, however, rewards in making music. Joey Martinez, junior, said that he enjoys being a part of the band because of the feeling he gets “after a song has ended and we’ve done a good job.” Curtis Nall, also a junior, said he enjoys the challenge of developing his musical skills. The guitar is like anything else. To be good, you've got to work at it. Not everybody can play music, and I like the challenge of trying to be the best.” As their music scores range from heavy metal to a more popular contemporary rock, this fun-loving band most often plays for personal parties, small weddings, and frequently at Pizzano’s Pizza in Edwardsville. Performing once or twice a month, sometimes more, Legacy’s earned money goes directly to purchasing or repairing equipment for the band and each member shares an equal part of the investments. The band’s future looks strong for these eight guys as they work closely together, striving to produce fine sounds for their audiences. —Wendi Coffman “Police Academy III”... Slo-pitch...

Wt, as students, are constantly on the run—never slowing down as the school year goes by. Our 180 days of the classroom scene expose us to friends, foes, and the facts of life. Trying to be a special part, each person tries to fit into the social scene. Clothes and fashions are a major part of everyone’s priorities and the fashion fads of the time keep everyone on the go. Unfortunately, the fads of fashion continue to change and it’s hard to keep a firm grip on the styles of today. Although our high school has never strayed to the totally off-the-wall clothing, our students know what is “in” and never disassociate themselves with the styles. Besides the love of warm, comfortable sweatshirts, big bulky sweaters are fre- quently seen in the Bonner halls. Sweaters of this kind run from $25 and higher. Over the years, jeans have never lost their popularity and today Levis 501’s, about $25, and the flowered jeans, star- ting at $30. top the list of favorites. In addition, men are not the only ones seen wearing boxer shorts of daring col- ors and prints. Throughout the area, women now share the fun of the boxer short popularity. However, boxer shorts run rather high, usually found for about $25. On the sidewalk scene, leather boots, $40 and up, leather high-tops, $45 and up, and flat pumps, $20 and up, share the path walked by the feet of numerous students. Despite the styles of the times, each person gives his clothing his own in- dividuality and creativeness. No matter the cost, each person can add class to his own wardrobe and not have to splurge on expensive styles. As long as fashions continue to change, the desire to wear the hottest styles will always be there. — Wendi Coffman FADS. Pictured right, Shelly Gray models a new fashion.

In changing the traditional soft drink, the Coca-Cola company said it hoped to com- pete more successfully with new, lighter colas. Surprising to the company, this new Coke fell flat as loyal Cokaholics” boycotted the new produce with loud pro- tests throughout the nation. Why the change? According to Newsweek magazine, the idea of a for- mula change for Coke had been in circula- tion for five years when researchers were developing Diet Coke and discovered a new cola taste. In secret taste tests, Coca-Cola found that consumers prefer- red this new taste blend 61 to 39 percent. In addition, the decision also came when the company perceived that Coke’s dominant position in the market was fading. Thinking this new formula would please consumers and boost company sales, Coke announced its startling switch. Soon after New Coke hit the stores, vending machines, and restaurants, Pepsi sales jumped by over 14 percent. Almost immediately, New Coke was compared to furniture polish, sewer water, and worst of all, two-day-old Pepsi. As the summer progressed and pro- tests continued, Coke manufacturers realized the new formula was not going to be it and by the end of the summer Coke announced that the original formula would return under the name of Coke Classic.” It was a victory for Cokaholics and brougtlt to an end one of the summer's most unusual controver- sies. —Wendi Coffman By the end of the summer, Coke Classic was back—much to the pleasure of most Americans. Missee Payne named regional Honey Queen Through family persuasion and meeting contest rules, senior Melissa Payne claimed the Northeast Kansas Honey Queen of 1985 on Aug. 8 at the Wyandotte County Fair. Along with this honor, Melissa became the official spokeswoman for the Beekeepers' Association. Throughout her reign, she appeared in several parades and fairs and experienced numerous radio and televi- sion interviews. After attending the 1986 Kansas State Fair, Melissa’s reign ended in September.

As we took our steps through our daily routines, the 1985-86 school year finally began to wind down. The not-so-snowy winter brought the wrestling and basket- ball seasons, and we saw senior David Blackwell capture a state wrestling championship for BSHS. The long-awaited spring saw the coming of the tennis, track, baseball and softball seasons—along with a final chance for success in 1986. One of the highlights of the spring was Prom—held again at Lake of the Forest and featuring the theme Just You and I. A record crowd attended the event, with celebrations continuing until the wee hours of the morning. The end of the school year brought the arrival of senior announcements and the circula tlon of Stuco petitions among juniors and sophomores—all re minders that the year was almost over and that our final steps were being taken. Nationally, Out of Africa, the year's best picture, and The Color Purple caused many of us to step up to the box office. Memorial Day featured, Hands Across America,” a fund-raising event that saw Americans across the na- tion linking hands to raise money for the country’s hungry ... Oh, really!

Stepping up security, the U.S. suf- tered paranoia when terrorist attacks throughout Europe called for action. Then on April 14, President Ron- ald Reagan decided to take a stand and ordered the bombing of three military bases in Libya. The action forced the U.S. into the International spotlight as others stood back to view our strong stand on terrorism. Also stepping onto the stage was the Soviet Union when an April 27 meltdown at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant became the world’s most devas- tating nuclear nightmare. More than 25 lost their lives as a result of the accident, and the suffering for those in the area is expected to continue for years. As we viewed such steps with disbelief, we also took many of our own steps. As we watched our footprints in the sand disap- pear while etching memories in our minds, the prospect of our futures made us all the more ea- ger to pursue our unique paths. As our steps to the future led us to an array of jobs, careers, and colleges, the separation of our se- curity and long-lasting friendships had to be faced. — Tara McCrink Smile.

Through her many years of dedication and caring to the staff and student body of BSHS, Mrs. Zum- brunn taught all of us Important lessons. In her career at BSHS, Mrs. Zum- brunn taught language arts and supervised the sophomore reading lab. Earlier In her career at BSHS, she sponsored a variety of clubs and organizations. Due to the loss of such an important faculty member, teacher, and friend, the 1986 Totem Pole staff dedicates its 1986 yearbook in memory of Mrs. Zumbrunn—a teacher whose hard work, caring, and ability brought us all one step closer to a higher degree of knowledge.
