When the new SCA officers were announced, the cycle of work began all over again. Students and faculty members mingled together while SCA members served a brunch to the teachers during the teacher work day. On October 17, the SCA arranged a sock hop to be held after one of the football games. Dur- ing the week of homecoming, a crowd of around 50 showed up for the bonfire which flamed in the school parking lot. Snow caused the cancellation of the winter dance on January 24. After K-92 disc jockeys made disparaging remarks about the school, bringing about numerous complaints, they put on a free dance for the student body. In December, SCA members encouraged students to bring cans for the food drive. They collected over 1000 cans. The SCA held a breakfast of donuts and juice for the top win- ning homerooms of each grade level.

They made history. From famous quotes to all kinds of statistics, the uKnight LetteriT and Accoladeii staffs worked hard to produce what the student body wanted to read. uThis is the hardest class I havefi stated Dan Robinson. The uKnight Letter staff produced the monthly newspaper with regular fea- tures such as iiSenior Spotlighti, and a uDear Clemmi, column. But what made them a successful pub- lication was their ability to have fun with the issues they discussed. The parody of Hunting Hills High, founded by the creative D.st at K- 92, developed into the theme of the April Fools edi- tion entitled the Hunting Hills Herald. Sponsor Mrs. Kristi Fry stated, til told them they could do anything they wanted as long as it was not deroga- tory or crude.H Ads for BMWis and a spring sports review of the croquet and yachting teams by Biff Ham- ilton and Palmer Woodrowi made the paper a hot item. After staff members wrote the articles and took the pic- tures, they pasted everything up into a mock layout, proof- read, and sent it off to the Salem Times Register to be printed. iTm usually crazy on those daysf said Mrs. Kristi Fry. The itAccolade staff had their work cut out for them too. The production of the new spring supplement gave students a chance to ex- 1 64 - Publications They wrote Letters and produced Accolades change signatures Divided into five sections; the staff had students work- ing in the subjects of student life, sports, people, clubsi academics, and advertising. Each student wrote articles, took pictures, drew layouts, and thought up headlines to name only a few of the jobs that needed to be done for each spread. Sponsor Mrs. Sandra Ferguson commented, tiltis difficult for the first year students to understand the enormity of this project and there is a larger percentage of first year students on the staff this year. Co-editor Julie Stasik summed up her job by stat- ing, tiltis really hard to keep everything consistent.

The right type Preparing their copy for a deadline David Michie and Wendy Morris type in the hallway. Staff members often worked before and after school and even on weekends to meet deadlines. However there were the fun times. The week long summer camp at Hollins College gave every one who attended the chance to put their creativity to work. With the deadlines met and most of the pages in to the printer, the staff let loose at the traditional year end picnic, held at Mrs. Fergu- sonis house. However, the year was not quite over as the co-editors and members of the student life section retumed to school the after- noon after graduation to fin- ish up the graduation spreads and read over proofs of the final pages.

F i n gers at work The hands of Craig Kidd, Ashley Sheets, and Joly Byrd are busy at work as they prepare the relief map of Virginia for the blind. 1 66 -e Service PST! Wanna know a secret? Its a SADD situ- ation. The Key is to serve and support the school and the community. Raising bundles of money and hold- ing special events, each club donated time and effort to serve others. Putting in long hours, Key Club members helped with several fundraisers. The balloon drive for the Arthritis Foundation called llUp, Up and Away was a major project. Here students blew up helium balloons and let them go in the parking lot at Tanglewood Mall. During the month of November, Key Club officers organized a telethon for Multiple Sclero- sis with volunteers working long hours calling people to solicit donations. Every Sun- day in December, Key Club committee heads took a group of members to visit patients at Friendship Manor. Others wrote letters At the South Roanoke Nursing Home, French Club member, Wendy Pilcher talks to one of the patients during a visit at Christmas.

Julie Willcox SADD secrets and World wide fashions were the to Santa and went caroling. They collected $135 for the United Way Foundation. They also worked refresh- ment stands and sold tickets for the Lancerlot hockey team. Mrs. Maureen Anderson began a new club called Professional Service Tech- nicians lPSTl, an organiza- tion formed to work with the handicapped. They made a relief map of Virginia for the blind. The map was built raised and puffed up almost like braille, so blind students could feel and understand the map. Several students visited the public radio sta- tion, took voice test and read newspapers over closed cir- cuit radio stations for the blind. Some students attended training sessions to help them better understand and learn more about the club. Others made flashcards, gameboards, and taped test- books for the reading impaired.

They wore fashions from Bridels House and Formals and Ronis Tux Stop. Notable personalities from K-92 and WSLS Channel 10 worked as masters of ceremony. Ending the year with a bang, club members partied. With some work and effort, they showed the community how much they cared. Lon' Eades I 47'
