Something Out of the ,N ive A6011 l Senator Snarl, Almost Anything Goes, Mr. Leggs Contest, Powder Puff Football, these are a few of some of the events around school that just make Fletcher special. Each will have its own memories whether it be a large, well publicized event, like the selection of class officers or the small every day event of sitting on the air conditioner in front of the library before school. All are to be enjoyed! What is a better way to liven up a school day than to have the student body dress up. Country Day was one of these held in recognition of the Sadie Hawkins Day Dance put on by the Senior Class. When football season was drawing near it was quite obvious by the excitement in the air. Each Friday stu- dents would make a night of the game and going out for pizza afterwards. lt was always a mystery of just who was inside that Fletcher Chicken. lt was almost as secretive as 'lWho shot J.R.? All students enjoyed pep rallies perhaps mainly because of the abbreviated per- iods but the favorite by far was the Senator Snarl put on by Interact the night before Homecoming. The overall winner was the cheerleaders and the Serenaders took first place in the skit competition. All clubs who partici- pated enjoyed themselves. The science department encouraged many students to enter the Science Fair held February 3, 4, 5. Winners advanced to the regional fair at Regency Square in March. Foreign Language field days delighted all who attended. Schools from all over the county competed for awards and honors. Selected students were invited to take part in Project Free Enterprise. Students visited places of business where they took part in the transac- tions of the day. ZOXHIGHLIGHTS if

Practically Every Day! WW In April of 1980, Omega held an Almost Anything Goes open for all clubs to participate. The Senior Call of '80 won with the Junior Girls and Junior Class close behind in points. In November, Astra held a Mr. Leggs contest for which 20 guys were nominated. By popular demand, Brandon Mendoza was voted as having the cutest legs. Fletcher was the host of College Night when about 150 college representatives were available to talk with students and their parents. Service clubs were asked to assist. The week before Homecoming has practically the biggest events for school clubs that happen all year. During this week, the long preparations of building a float take place. Up to S300 and 50 hours of work can be credited to those who went Hall out! The Omega Service club triumphed over the other floats with their Giant Wave. The Young Life Annual Turtle Derby was held Novem- ber 26th at the Turtle Inn. Key Club's uCooter won the race. The Jr. Girls met the Sr. Women in a Powder Puff Football Game in January. Several months before the match, both teams practiced intensely. Perhaps the biggest and most anticipated event of the year was the change in administration. Although the students were sorry to see Dr. Knight leave, they wel- comed openly Dr. Jim Ragans.
