JUST SAY NO! Drugs on the school grounds. Drugs on the street. Some peo- ple even say they're really neat . .. STOP! Who are these peo- ple? What are they saying to those innocent children?! ... But they're bad for your body and they're bad for your mind. They don't make sense. They're bad all the time! Oh! It's Cascade's Just Say No team teaching grade school children, from all over the district to say NO to drugs! For two months Cascade's Say No team sang, performed and had group rap sessions with kids from grades four to six. Traveling from school to school was tiring, but extremely rewarding, said Kari Rudishauser a senior, It gives you such a good feeling inside to help the kids that will be the fu- ture leaders of America. Troy Cunningham, also a senior, said, The way those kids look up to you, they think your're a god or something. It's kinda' scarey when you think how much power you have with just an influence. The Say No committee may be through with this year's Say No campaign, but the message they sent out to the students will make a lasting impression and may have turned someone around. What's this?

Struttin' In Guy's Drill In their second year the guy's drill team, Struttin' In, proved their worth. Under the direction of Mrs. Butler and with help from Melissa Hunt the guys put together an awesome show. The team practiced every morning at 7:00 in the junior high and had a three hour session one Sunday. They performed twice at the school to Woolley Bully and Heard it Through the Grapevine . Later they went to the Girl's State Basketball Tourna- ment and performed at half-time during the Vale game and again at the championship game against Siuslaw where they recieved a standing ovation. The guys have received recognition from Dallas, and an article in the Statesman Journal. Will the guys be back next year? We hope so! Cascade teaches synchronization The guys end the year with wave.

Prom, the annual rit- ual of high school stu- dents everywhere. Cas- cade's junior class con- tributed to this annual event by hosting the 1988 Junior Senior Prom. The prom was held at the Elks Lodge in Salem. The theme was City Nights , fea- turing glittering deco- rations, including a scale model of a sus- pension bridge. Hundreds of formally clad teenagers shelled out a month's worth or more of hard earned money to make this multi-colored prom one of the best events in recent memory. Mu- sic was furnished by Equinox, a professional production company and included a light show, smoke and other special effects. The members of the Prom court, elected by the student body were: Hope Anderson, Jody Black, Lisa Greb, Sara Palmer, Gabriela Pe- droza, Jackie Tudela, Justine Updegrave, Christy Young and Ro- berta Zintz. Jackie Tu- dela was crowned the 1988 Prom Queen. YES! It was prom. It was hot. It was 1988. We danced for 4 1 2 hours straight and lived life in high style, if only for a nignt. No time to daydream Phil Ross and Melissa Dershewitz dance the night away. Get Down Nori Nori Wendt gets down and does the funky chicken. lumping For Joy Valerie Nichol has a blast at Prom. 14 Prom
