The Photo Challenge This year the photographers took their best pictures and put them to our judgement. This gave each photographer a chance to get recognition for many of their creative ideas. Also, it was the yearbook staffs way of thanking the photographers for all the effort they put forth this past year. Without the work of the photographers there would definitely be part of the year- book missing. The challenge measured the skills and abilities the photographers gained throughout the year. One might think that this type of competition would cause rivalry between the photographers. According to senior photographer Aaron Ivlears. It was nothing more than a friendly competition. The pictures were judged by the Yearbook Staff, and the top five places are shown. The challenge not only gave the photographers recognition, but it also gave the Yearbook Staff a chance to use some great pictures that would have not been otherwise used. The challenge provided a way of the two different staffs getting together and enjoying each other. So to all the photographers — thanks! Third place was given lo Lisa Griggs tor her creative idea ot juniors Ed Garner and Garner Geisler »

Around the World in Seven Days Nobody will forget the Spring Break of 84-85 No matter if you stayed home (and partied) or went on a trip (and partied) , YOU HAD A STROMPING GOOD TIME! Whether you went with your parents or your friends, you will have unforgettable memories, which you will find yourself thinking about for at least the next few years. The students involved m Dickinson Students to Prance stayed m a European student hotel in Pans, where they sampled true European lifestyle. They also spent a lot of time sight seeing, shop- ping, and checking out discos, cafes, and bakeries. Laura Youngblood, a junior who went to France, said that ' it was so craz-ee and that she would always remember that week m France. Many students hit the slopes of Colorado or New Mexico. One of the ski bunnies, Christie Oxendme, a senior, said that they had a great time, especially when they wiped out And for some who prefer warmer climates, Mexico and California are only a hop, skip, and a jump away. The Pan American Club sponsored a trip to Mexico m which they visited Mexico City, Oaxaco, and Acapulco. Todd Gupton, a senior, said, We caught mega rays while improving our Spanish greatly. While many of us were out of the state, or even the country, those that stayed had fun, too. Some set off in search of the perfect road trip. And there were always the spur of the moment parties or Houston to keep DHS students entertained. Of course, spring break is the traditional beginning of the tanning season. Almost everyone left at home during the week spared a few hours to grab the baby oil, squeeze into the new bathing suit, and head east toward the beach to catch rays (and the opposite sex) , •Bon Apelil ' My DHS sluctenit.
