J . No matter the year, no matter the school, events always take place that make a dif- ference to those affected. lt is those events that make that year memorable. Borrowing the advertisement slogan ir'l1 surprise ya! from Energizer Batteries, the BORGAN staff has set down 240 pages of memorable events from 1988. Although many weren't earth shattering in importance, they made '88 memorable for Borger High School students. The staff chose the theme due to tradi- tionally strong athletic and organizational memories. The Bulldog football team claim- ed the Bi-District title, but were stopped from further movement by continued rival Sweetwater. Coach Butch Henderson's 'Dawgs' were undaunted, however, and they did lay claim to several All-District titles, plus an All-State honor for Mark Neas and honorable mentions for Matt Mclntosh and Brad Knight. The close knit community of Borger 416,000 pop.y continued to be the No. 1 fans of the red and white Bulldogs. Parent organizations rallied behind a variety of school activities by offering financial and moral support. When members ofthe var- sity choir and varsity cheerleaders advanc- ed to competitions in their respective divi- sions, the entire community backed and followed their progress. Five choir members nabbed All-State chairs and the varsity cheerleaders ranked within the top 20 teams in National Competition. Scholastic departments began gearing up early for UIL district competition in March with their goal to match and beat last year's outstanding record. Perhaps the biggest surprise of all is the BORGAN annual, itself. An excited staff, led by Editor Shelly Wade, wanted to leave a lasting impression and decided that changing the book was a good start. For years the annual had been small c7V2 x 1OV2J. As a surprise to BHS, the staff mov- ed to a bigger Q9 x 12l and better book. MUNCHING DOWN FFA President Marney Turpin feeds his steer before preparing him for the Hutchinson County Livestock Show.
