Brass Learns to Make True Music. Cal Baptist has several musical groups but the only one that emphasizes in- strumental music is the Brass Ensemble. The group performed this year with the College Singers for the aimual Fall Concert, and participated in Christmas chapel. They traveled to several churchs in the area to lead in their worship serv- ices. A new member the group this year Madra Judd conunented on what she has learned this year. What I grew the most from was travelling and performing in new places and situations. 1 now have a greater appreciation for music and the ministry that we have.

- Cheer Provides Support, Keeps Spirit High Pom pons, spirit signs, and great rou- tines. What do these things bring to mind? Most of us would associate them with cheerleaders, Cal Baptist cheer- leaders to be more exact. The cheer squad was advised this year by GaU Benedetto, wife of AD Mark Benedetto. The girls were a lot of fun to work with. It was a good experience, commented Gail. The girls worked hard under Gail ' s watchful eye to perfect their cheers for the games. Shannon Domos- ley related, We spent a lot of time prac- ticing and getting our routines just right. For some, cheering was a new ad- venture. Dawn Keys, a freshman, shared, I ' d never been a cheerleader before. Being a military brat, my family moved around a lot and I never got really in- volved in anything. For all the girb, though, it was a chance to show their school spirit. Yolanda McCall told us I love getting out there on the court and yelling and jumping up and down! The cheerleaders had a good time do- ing what they did. Supporting the ath- letic teams was their biggest responsi- bility, but they had fun together, too. What meant the most to me was going to Westmont to support the mens ' team. They really appreciated us coming to an away game. And after the game, we spent the weekend together on retreat, getting to know each other. It was spe- cial, said Vickie Austin. Enjoying the sunshine, Irene Bryant and Vickie Austin show their support for the soccer team. Creativity and originality showed in this year ' s cheerleaders right from the start. Even at away games, Irene Bryant and LeAnn Hale show their excitement about cheering. New cheerleaders Nikki Shiflet and Dawn Keys help keep up the spirit at the Homecoming game. CHEERLEADERS 125
