There’s Never Enough Money! Seniors experience that... What’s here today and gone tomorrow? MONEY! That’s how fast money comes and goes for the seniors. For the seniors it seems like the more money they make, the less they see of it. Along with having to buy senior announcements and paying for the senior trip, the seniors’ top priority for which to spend money is on their KEEPING YOUR CAR RUNNING IS A PRIORITY for senior Ed Schmidt.

They like to go out with their friends, go out to parties, and go to the movies. They even enjoy just riding around or shopping. Senior Kyle Stouten- burg says he spends most of his money on ”my car, women, stereo, and weekend plea- sure.’ The seniors not only spend their money on all these things, but a lot of them also set some of it aside to save for various things, such as their senior trip and college. Senior Cindy Raines says, Tm saving my money for college and all the other expenses related to it.” Where do the seniors get all the money for these things? Their main sources of money are jobs like working at places such as McDonalds and the IGA. Senior Edna Willerton de- scribes how she gets her spending money: ”1 get my money from my parents and by taking care of a 97 year old lady.” Others get their money from their parents and a few senior girls admit that they get most of their money from their boy friends.

In Memoriam David Doerr 1969-1987 We returned to school last fall full of anticipation for the new year. But that anticipation was halted by the death of senior and fellow classmate Dave Doerr. Dave will be sincerely missed by all his friends and family, and especially by those members of the graduating class. We are certain that the whole school and com- munity share in our sorrow.

Finishing out the year In Grand Style This year’s seniors were true beach bumsl The class of '88 spent five days together in Florida, and they loved every minute of it. They left on March 26 dur- ing spring break. Their first day consisted of the water slides at Wet-N-Wild. Disney- land was the special event for day two. Day three was spent at Epcot Center. The day that everyone looked forward to was day four at Daytona Beach. Everyone soaked up those Florida rays for that spe- cial tan that they could sport back to old DHS. The last day was left for the seniors to choose as they wished. This event certainly made memories that the seniors will treasure forever. Senior Den- ise Peruski said that the best thing that she liked about the senior trip was: Being togeth- er with all my friends because it was our last time together. But the senior trip lead to another special event for the senior class. That event was the junior-senior prom, which was held on April 16 in the high school gym. The prom’s theme was In My Dreams.” The juniors went all out to create a special set- ting for one of the senior’s last events together as a class. Ju- nior Gail Roggenbuck said this about her class’s work on the prom: Working on the prom was a lot of hard work, but fun work. When I walked in the gym on Saturday night. I knew it was worth it.
