RING IT 0 Field Day, Seaholm's oldest and greatest tradition, was exceptional- ly exciting this year as the competition was very close in ability, it was also filled with suspense, especially in the field events. Field day is divided into parts and the field events specially are heavier in their point value than the other theme events. The field events are quite important in the total outcome of field day because if a class has lost all the theme events, it is possible that the class could catch up by winning the field events. The field events consist of the flag-shuttle relay, boys and girls tug-o-war, sack race, three legged race, and the barrel race. Prepara- tion is essential for success in the field events. Practice was held every day after school. According to Kurt Kruger, Senior sports chair- man, We had the teams picked, but we didn't have that mandatory attendance that a successful team needs. We got through though, and we won by the skin of our teeth. Carrie Page, chairman of the field events for the class of '87, com- mented, The field events would have done a lot better if more people came out to practice serious- ly. Pressure was great, as all the classes entered the field events, it was either rise to the occasion or lose. Perfect practice makes perfect and the field events went fairly smooth. An overall look at the 1983 Field Day was that of joyous victory and the disappointment of defeat, but all in the spirit of Seaholm High School and good sportsmanship. O AFTER RIPPING OFF their cos- tumes, Karen Arnold, Bethany Cecilio, and Mary Ballantyne cheer on the Junior class with anticipation and excitement. FIELD EVENTS '83 EVENTS: RELAY: TUG! G TUG!
