Willing o serve Ushers • • !• ' ••. Chapel is a daily event at LHS, but most of us see only the speaker or group who leads the service. Yet there is lots that goes on before all this can take place. The podium and banners must be set up, the microphone hooked up and in place, and the bleachers pulled out. Often a fairly complex assortment of speakers, record players, or projectors is needed, or there will be hymnals to distribute. Who takes care of all this, day after day without fail? The LHS Ushers. This year ' s head Ushers were David Teske and Jimmy Cotter. They were responsible for seeing that the sound system worked, that everything was set up and ready, and that all was back in place after- wards, and th ey were in charge of a number of other students who assisted. They could always be counted on, and their conduct and responsibility set a fine example for others to follow. This year ' s ushers included (front) Craig Patten, limmy Colter, Pete Luedemann, and David Teske. (back) Tim Sternberg, Strahan Larsen, and Danni Rossi. 39

A fradi+ion of service and love Red Cross For Red Cross, a service organization sponsored by Mrs. Russ, keeping busy was not hard during the ' 87-88 school year. Their activities ranged from help- ing the needy to visiting such places as the Arkansas Manor Nur- sing Home. For their many visits to Arkansas Manor, this group made gifts and cards. They also served refreshments at the February Pops Concert. The Red Cross is truly a service organization — they help in ways that are needed and often neglected by others. Mrs. Russ and the girls in Red Cross did a wonderful job of representing Lutheran Fiigh School in the community. Mrs. Russ (top) supervises members of Red Cross while they serve as waitresses at the Pops Concert. Their efforts made the con- cert more enjoyable for everyone.

Helping fo shape our future . . . Parent Teacher League The Parent Teacher League (PTL) showed us for yet another year that they care about us and our school. Made up of teachers and parents, the PTL is led by an Executive Board, which leads the meetings, plans programs for parents, and oversees the group ' s fundraising activities. This year, the PTL sponsored a program dealing with prevention of substance abuse. It also initiated a new money-making idea for the school — selling King Soopers coupons. And, as always, the PTL served as an important link between parents and Lutheran High School, giving parents an opportunity to know what ' s happening at school and to express their views and concerns. Participation by these people shows us that we really do matter! This year ' s PTL Executive Board included (seated) President Clark Fassett, Secretary Lynne Peterson, Treasurer lona Bathke. (standing) Vice President Jessica Brettmann, Hospitality Planners Sharon De Jong and Norma Anderson. Mr. Brandhorst (middle left) distrubutes program materials to parents at one of PTL ' s bimonthly meetings, while Mrs. Peterson (middle right) records information in the group ' s minutes.
