Ram,s Knight out e All-Knight Diner Art Club float, Leigh Wil- liams, Kelly Fisher, Nancy Mosebach, Jon Danis, and Chuck Stanley display the menu for the evening during the Homecoming parade. They were just showing off, all of them. They got up in front of crowds, or simply posted it on the walls. Between the Olympics of the Mind teams and the Art Club, there was quite a show. Practice paid off for Olympics of the Mind teams as Cave Spring placed first and third in the March competition at Roanoke College. Members of the six teams practiced daily after school to participate in such categories as Poetic License, Decision Structure, Omer to the Rescue, and Chain Reac- tion. Team members solved mind boggling problems, or even did a parody of a classic poem, enacting it onstage and often composing their own music. After competing in the initial performance, in- dividual teams were in- terviewed. Points for the in- terview and for the perfor- mance were totalled for the final score. Between artistic endeavors and Olympics of the Mind, Several Art Club members also received awards for their efforts. President Chuck Stanley won a $150 first place award in Roanokets annual AAUW art shows youth division. Honorable mention went to Leigh Williams and Wendy Witch- ger. And yet, the Art Club did more than just compete. From the All-Knight Diner Homecoming float to the April Easter egg workshop, members busied themselves having fun serving the community. f In the fall, Art Club members painted faces at the Penn Forest Elementary School Carnival and later at Cave Spring Baptist Church. On Halloween, the members themselves dressed up, carved pumpkins which they took to patients at Commu- nity Hospitalis Cancer and Childrenis wards, and later celebrated at Pichds.

After skating around on the cold ice, they jour- neyed to the Market Square building to see the Christmas tree displays and to eat dinner. Things warmed up a bit in March as Art Club members finished up the painted signs for the visiting self-study committee, which visited in early April. The colorful signs, sporting the names of the schools departments, were hung at various points around the school to help identify the classrooms. The Art Club held its annual Easter Egg Workshop in April and helped the children of faculty members decorate the eggs. Indeed, the Art Club and the Olympics of the Mind teams had good reason to show off. Ashley Sheets Chain Reaction Front row: Mrs. Bonnie Kelley Scott Chandler, Sharon Lambert.
