Trips offer a time for learning and fellow- ship. Field trips to businesses and other interesting places served as a learn- ing experience and an excused way to leave school campus. The Ocoeean staff, for instance, was privileged to be able to visit a few television stars at WTVC Channel 9 and a group of Bradley FFAer's trav- eled to Kansas City for a National FFA Conference. The lucky Bradley band and cheer- leaders travelled to New York City to participate in the Kick-Off Classic dur- ing the 1987-88 school year. Bradley Central's cheerleaders were the only cheerleaders featured in the festivities. The band and the cheerleaders were able to see the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, and to eat at New York's Hard Rock Cafe. Attending the Southern Association of Student Councils (SASC), held in Kissimmee, Florida, were Amy Con- Relaxing at a tranquil spot in Washington D.

The students and advisor learned much about other schools which aided in the advancement of Bradley's Stu- dent Council and Bradley High School itself. One of the most exciting trips was one which preceded the 1987-88 school year. A group of students, teachers, and parents embarked for New England on an historical and lit- erary adventure, whose end result was much fun and just as much ed- ucation. These were but a few of the many worthwhile excursions clubs and or- ganizations made in an effort to share and learn beyond the walls of Bradley Central High School. Trips 29

In an after school practice session, fellow wres- tlers Kevin Heffington and Billy Kazy attempt to perfect their best moves. Give me one of those giant Belgian waffles! Always sporting a warm smile, Kim Jones takes a Perkits order from a hungry Marc Taylor. Most students just took it for granted that when the 3:20 bell rang they all went home. For many students; how- ever, only the day went on. There were plenty of organizations and ex- tracurricular activities for students at Bradley that took a lot of extra time and dedication. For instance, Bradley sports were no longer a sixth period affair. Sports were before school and after school activities. There were also various or- ganizations ranging from Drama and Ranstrassy to the Student Council and Bachelorettes that met after school. Still others volunteered an hour of time to the detention hall eagerly. Other than school activities, many students had part time jobs or other activities that kept them away from the solice of their homes. One almost got the impression that without Bradley's workforce businesses like Red Food, Cooke's, Hardee's, Central Park, and the mall would have closed down. The lucky ones were those who simply went home, relaxed, laid back, and watched television. Even those; however, had to dedicate at least an hour or two to their home- work assignments. Good or bad, many after school hours were anything but after- work hours. 3:20 only meant a shift change. Checking sizes and prices. Goody's employ- er Rhonda Wyatt can’t believe how the mer- chandise can get so out of place. 30 After Hours
