Again there was the last minute rush of classes finishing their floats. The climax of the week was the clash with Plainwell and the crowning of Luanne Cook and Pat Murphy as 1972 Homecoming King and Queen. 30 Robin Vallier, Mr. Vallier. Luann Cook, Mr. Cook.

Klose Electric Co. 509 Mills Street Edwards Industrial Sales 424 Mills Street Looking Back The first thing that comes in my mind is the bus trip from New York, where we arrived, to Detroit where our families picked us up. I guess that was the time when I first realized that a whole year without my parents was ahead of me, with all of the consequences. The first time without your parents or friends is not easy but we all knew that we wouldn’t be alone because we were expected. Everywhere we went the people were nice and friendly to us. On AFS weekends we got to know other families from other schools. All this contributed to the mosaic that could have the title “America . Will it ever be finished? School brings everyday, things I haven’t known before. So many things were new to me. I watched and yelled at my first football game, went to basketball games, tried to hold a tennis racket and even to play tennis, felt the spirit of a track team and what it is like to come in last, took part in a school play, learned about dating, class rings, floats, homecoming, and senior skipday. During the year I had such a variety of new exciting experiences that sometimes I felt like I was walking through a dream. Who made all this possible? I don’t know whether anybody realizes how many people are involved to have a foreign student spend a year here. I would like to thank AFS. my host family, my family at home, my teachers, my school, my friends, the community, the 6th grade for selling candy bars and everybody else for buying them. It is hard to leave all this behind but when I come home I will find out how much I have learned. You will have another AFS student next year. Teach her as much as you taught me, I am sure she will appreciate it as much as I do. Brigitte Klink Jjl PaR3.COM YeaRBOOKS -
