Cherry Hill High School East - Eidolon Yearbook (Cherry Hill, NJ)

At the beginning of each school year, stu- dents can appreciate the pleasures of being Cherry Hill East students and also, though not less importantly, the pleasures of being kids. Spirit Week is an ideal opportunity for students to get involved, to work together with fellow classmates, and to engage in friendly competition with the other classes. Designed to promote school spirit and enthu- siasm for upcoming events, fun-filled activi- ties are scheduled for every day of the week. On Sunday, students had their first chance to participate in a series of timed competi- tions including the three-legged soccer kicks, sack jumps, and apple bobs. Monday’s events included the cake decorating contest, the tri- cycle relay, tug-of-war, and the search for the hidden cougars. The cakes were decorated based on the various class themes and were sold after school with all proceeds from the sale going to the Student Congress Charity Fund. More money was raised for charity on Tuesday when students voted for Spirit King and Queen (or in the case of this year’s Sen- iors, Spirit King and King). Since each penny represented one vote, the class with the lar- gest amount of money won. Also, on Tues- day, sixteen people each having the urge to devour an entire, chocolate, whipped-cream pie in one sitting had the chance to do so. Spirit Week activities resumed on Thursday with milk-drinking and hall decorating. Each class was given a sec- tion of the hall or cafeteria to deco- rate carrying out their COUGAR SEARCH CAKE DECORATING RELAY RACES 187 TRICYCLE RACE
