spirit was aroused at DHS. The games were a welcomed change of pace from the same old day-to-day routine. Some things that were really “in’’ were the sun glasses, bandanas, and hats that accompanied the fired-up De- Kalb students to the Friday and Satur- day night games. A new group to the school called Baron Pride was a big boost to the Bar- on spirit. Baron Pride sponsored a cara- van escorted by the DeKalb County Sheriff and Auburn Police departments on Setpember 30 to the DeKalb vs. Garrett football game. Fifteen to twenty cars were involved, accompa- nied by beeping horns, supportive signs and banners, streamers, balloons, and other various noise makers. As the caravan pulled into town, everyone could hear that the Barons were com- ing, and as the caravan arrived at Garrett High School, once again ev- eryone knew that the Baron Pride and Baron spirit still shines through.

SPIRIT: Dress-up days give DHS students a chance to really go all out and show their Baron Spirit. Hawaiian shirt day; dress-up days for Halloween and Christmas; sun glasses and hats day; red, white, and black day; and sweat suit day were a few of the events sponsored by the Student Council. It was a great way to get out of the same old monotony of the day’s schedule and added a little more in- terest on our way to classes. As the end of each week neared,
