Reaching For The Same Goals The Women's Choir is in its se- cond year. Our first year was a building year, commented Mrs. Leisl. This choir is very limited to its size because of the number of concert dresses they have to perform in. Consisting of only 23 members, who went through an audition in early March, a majority of the girls are ju- niors. Over the holidays they performed at Chuck E. Cheese and also in the Christmas concert held at Conner in December. Applying for music scholarships now and looking forward to making music their career, some members are thinking about their future. Te- resa Eagle, who competed at North- ern Kentucky University in a solo contest, made the All-State Choir, which consists of only 300 people selected from areas all over Ken- tucky. This group will have practices in Louisville and have one large per- formance to display their musical tal- ent. Mrs. Leisl has instructed the CHS choirs for three years, and she ad- mits that this is the first year she's had everything like she'd like it to be. She also comments, Every year I've been impressed with all of the choirs, but this year I'm really im- pressed. All of the members seem to be more disciplined and coopera- tive, and most importantly we all seem to be reaching for the same goals! WOMEN'S CHOIR Front Row: Shelly Keith, Kim Jackson.

Adding Spice To Life Having the majority of the squad as newcomers, the 1986-1987 Flag and Rifle Squad has definitely made a sparkling impression! With a really jazzy show routine to knock your socks off and to spice up the show, they have added a dance with lively various colorful costumes, an essential asset to the routine. To top it all off, the rifles bring the show to a close with a dazzling perfor- mance that is sure not to be forgot- ten. This show, however, could not have been possible without numer- ous practices and hard work. The girls practice two to three times a week, and every night for competi- tions not to mention every Friday night spent on half-time perfor- mances plus every Saturday on long bus rides to competitions. All this ef- fort was not put to waste. The com- petition at Scott Co. awarded them the Best Color Guard Trophy while the Best General Effect trophy was won at Tates Creek. Needless to say the feeling of pride and accomplish- ment is felt when the loud applause is heard. In response to the question what do the girls gain from the squad, Captain Jessica Williamson answers, Being a member teaches the girls coordination, rhythm, discipline, gives them a chance at leadership, and helps them to learn to follow directions. With all the newness and experi- ence behind them, the group is looking forward to being a bigger and better squad next season. Clubs 147
