You see, not everywhere in the world provides the security and festivity that such a setting provides. Around here, when you go to a party, you can count on knowing at least some of the peo- pie there. And if the area was much larger, you couldn ' t cruise through the streets until you created a party. Covingtonians are a friendly sort that like to relax, enjoy, and party. All too frequently, people really get into putting our small city down. Nobody believes that Cov- ington is a euphoria. And it can be a real sport to make funnies over the quaint setting we live in. For some reason, however, the area really grows on you. The school and the town are a flexible setting in which we all learn and grow. The first twelve years for every- one around here are pretty much the same. You go to school, the movies, and the pool up through seventh grade. You anxiously await getting to The High School while worrying about being snobbed by upperciassmem. But once you get to The High School, things work themselves out. You find the same basic faces with enough new people to make the entire experience interesting. At first the halls of C.H.S. loom at you, with figures lurching in the shad- ows. But as the first year wears on, the shadows disappear and beau- tiful people emerge with smiles attached to their faces. You learn that being a Cougar has to be more than a five year experience; Cou- gar-hood lasts forever. INTRODUCTION 3
