In 1965 a contest was held to give the combined districts of Metamora- Fulton-Lyons-Chesterfield a name. The consolidation chose “Evergreen” sug- gested by Ruth Gephart because our area was once a forest. Our building was opened in 1968 when rumors of a pool under the gym floor and elevators were found to be false. At first the mascot was a Viking ship representing strength. Over the years it became the Viking himself, fearless of no one. Valhalla, corresponds with the mascot; it is the name of Viking heaven. Vikings are not often pictured on horseback, but for one to reach our landlocked Nor- thwestern Ohio school district he would have had to come on foot or on a horse having been forced to dock his ship in Lake Erie. Though many of our students own horses, most ride a bus or car, and once a year FFA members come by tractor. Keeping Evergreen alive re- quired continued committment, the kind that kept team members en- thusiased players in a year when we did not win league championships, or the kind that has a hard-pressed farm community vote in favor of our levy. The committ- ment paid off and there were plenty of good things for Vikings to feel proud about: vic- tories, awards, achievements, but most of all the close bond that developed among those of us who spent the year working and learn- ing together.

It was little things that made a big difference, like a smiling face, a friendly greeting, clean surroundings, a warm meal on a cold day, or help when we needed it. Yet, too often we overlooked people who really kept Evergreen running smoothly. In appreciation for all those “not-so-little” things, the 1987 Valhalla staff dedicated this book to the people on these pages. Just how early did bus drivers get up? How many meals did the cooks prepare? How many light bulbs were replaced in one school year? And how many times did Mrs. Brigham stop what she was doing to answer a question or repair the copier. Just how much time did student aides save teachers and secretaries? How many times did we forget to say “thank you“? Guidance Office Aides; Sheri Schwyn, Christa Pifer.

Dedication 7 Added Expense Although public education was 'free' it often cost more than ex- pected to do all that a student wished. Seniors especially realized that. Mary Ann Crooks estimated some of her expenses as: Prom — $137.33, Senior Pictures — $200., Course fees — $66., Yearbook- $20., Graduation (cap gown, senior key, announcements, senior memory book) — $119,55, for a total of $498.88. Underclassmen had some of the same expenses, such as prom tickets and clothes, and others like a class ring costing from $79.to $250.. Not to mention lunch costing $1.20 a day, without seconds or extras. Students who drove had the added expenses of in- surance, gas, and a two dollar park- ing permit, and that was after they saved enough to buy the car. Those who became involved in clubs and sports often spent more. It might be only a dollar or so dues, or it might include uniforms, a trip abroad, or poster board and felt-tip markers. Being a cheerleader cost Julie Laver about two hundred dollars. She spent it for shoes, tights, socks, a T-shirt, candy food for gifts to players, cakes to be raffled, camp, paints and brushes for signs, and group pic- tures. Several organizations sold candy to raise money, and it was the unfortuante salesperson who realized he had eaten more than he sold and would have to pay for most of the case of candy bars. Whether it was a dime to buy a pencil, or a quarter to phone home for a ride, students who arrived in the morning with spare change often left with nothing to spare, and parents were all to accustomed to hearing the words, “But 1 need the money for school tomorrow! If band members, like Carl Wit- tenmyer (above) want to buy in- struments, they have considerable expense; while, an interest in com- putors might make Mike Pupos or Bruce Niday wish he could buy one. 8 Special clothes can mean extra ex- pense; such as, Amy Jo Enyart’s $4.75 S.A.D.D. T-shirt, Shannon Wallace’s costume for Cabaret, and Janel Langenderfer's matching cheerleader shirt. When it comes to prom and graduation students Mark Krieger, dancing with Anna Floyd, and Mary Kathryn Cur- rier with her Senior rose, forget the cost and enjoy the moment. A Benetton watch: Many colorful facings ad- ded to colorful bands to match everyone’s personality. Urge Bags: These are used to carry everything you ever need. No need for a suitcase anymore, just shove it in your purse. Reebok: A pair of Reebok’s are worn by the majority of students for the comfort and stylish appcarencc. Designs of the Times Sometimes little things made all the difference for a total ap- pearcnce, and 1987 was one of those times. Added jewelry such as very large necklaces, earrings, or just handmade string bracelets and ankle bands, showed style and class. Hairstyles were sculpturing, spiking, and the shaved look. Name brand designs that were worn in 1987 by both girls and guys were Benetton, Guess, Coca- Cola, Reebok's, and l.O.LJ. Girls also wore Outback Red, and Foren- za; while, guys wore Polo, and Pierre Carden. Students enjoyed wearing anything that was ‘hot’, that was ‘cool’, that was ‘totally today’ ... and even ‘tomorrow’! Center Right: Outback Red shirts are worn by both Laura Raney and Shana Bagget. Laura also displays herspritz spiked hairstyle. I eft: The long Jordach jacket worn by Janelle Simon is traditionally a style in the oversized look. Oversiz- ed shirts, skirts, coats, and sweaters were worn by many. 10 Trends Katie Eisel I ft: Coca-Cola ... Catch The Wave. Shelley Lcofflcr wears one of many of her Coca-Cola shirts. After Coca-Cola designs were brought to the stores, Pepsi jeans and sweatshirts followed right behind them. Some seniors even chose to have informal senior photos taken with a Coke vending machine for background.

Scun -ibe Pun[ Although posters on our walls might have made it seem we lived in our own little world, Evergreen was aware of outside events. Closest to home was the need to pass a millage which was done, but then we learned our superinten- dent had been offered another job. School pride was inspired by the sign parent boosters purchased for Route 20. With Presidental elections close, candidates were busy. The first victim of the press was Gary Hart; accused of having an affair, he dropped from the race. Mean- while, the nation celebrated the 200th birthday of the Constitution and President Reagan released his recommendation for mandatory A.I.D.S. testing. In international affairs, Oliver North was tried for illegally selling arms to Iran and funding Contra rebels in Nicaragua. The nation mourned victims of the unex- pected missiling of U.S.S. Stark, by an Iranian fighter plane ... Almost ready to go into the ‘real’ world, students found that news affected their lives more than they used to think. 12 Current Events Christina Finney When the going gets rough Throughout each year, there were a few students who became afflicted with injuries. It was not unusual to see someone maneuvering halls in an unconfortable cast and relying on the use of crutches or a sling. Wraps, pat- ches and band-aids were frequently seen. Sports also had disabled. Some players used wraps for ailments such as shin splints, or knee braces to pro- tect a sensitive joint. Ice, to stop swelling of a twist, sprain or bloody nose, was a necessary first-aid item. Conditioning, and managers or trainers to care for potential weak joints, muscles and tendons helped prevent many injuries. The only advantages from having an injury, such as leaving class early, staying home, sympathetic attention from members of the opposite sex, or getting out of assignments, were soon out-weighed by the bothersome in- convenience of “being different” for a while. Top: Attempting to get sym- pathy from Shauna Rade, Eric Robertson complains about incoveniences such as not be- ing able to drive.

After successful- ly tackling a football oppo- nent , Dirk Bolderhaij nurses a broken leg in Toledo Hospital. 14 Not just facing being a new stu- dent, exchange students had to ad- just to a new country. Evergreen welcomed three exchange students: Nora Bettag from Ger- many, Dirk Bolderhaij from Holland, and Monika Emeroth from Sweden. Each found his or her own circle of friends at Evergreen. School is different in all coun- tries. For Nora, there was more composition homework the U.S ... Tests in Germany were pro- blem solving or essays not objec- tive. Dirk noticed that after a stu- dent came home from school he would watch television; in Holland, one went to his room and did homework. Monika had to get used to changing classes because her teachers had changed classrooms while students stayed in the same place. Football was the first opportuni- ty Dirk had to meet friends and by the time school had started he was well acquainted with team members. Nora became very ac- tivejoining drama club, flag corps, and foreign language club. Outside of classes, Monika could be found at FLC meetings.

Eleven guys volunteered to lead fans during girls’ basketball games. Boy cheerleaders first appeared for the 1986 season, but the reap- pearance of this special feature was gladly welcomed and added to fan enjoyment of the games. The unique group increased the number of fans attending and boosted team spirits. While female cheerleaders prepared at camps and preseason practices, the guys began with the season and rushed to coordinate their flips, pyramids, and chants. Lack of practice time often led to amusing performance blunders. They soon discovered that cheerleading was more demanding of time than they expected. Though they weren’t able to ap- pear at every game, the girls’ basketball team thought they showed a lot of spirit and courage. Team members also noticed that fans cheered more when the guys were performing. The continuation of the Guy Cheerleaders in 1988 will depend upon people caring enough and to make a good idea a tradition.

Concentration was difficult, everyone’s thoughts were on rain and homecoming events. Was there plastic to cover the float? How deep was the water on the field? Are football games cancelled due to flooding? By one o’clock questions had changed; everything, but the game had been postponed. We were having our first week-long, two-game homecoming celebration. Fans and cheerleaders wore boots or sloshed barefoot through “lakes” of rain water that blocked entrance to field and stands. Con- fidently splashing Vikings made waves as they took the field against Edon. At the start a clear sky con- trasted the bright green and gold of uniforms. At the first quarter’s end, field and players were a sea of mud. Occasionally a player would leave the field to rinse hands and arms in a puddle that covered the track. Fans who braved the elements were richly rewarded when the Vikings claimed victory during the last minutes of the game. Though floats and band had to wait a week, spirits were high for Saturday’s dance. About 150 peo- ple watched Shannon Wallace and Jon-Paul Thibert receive their crowns. The royal couple danced to the music of Leo III and shared festivities carefully planned by Student Council with Mr. Duane Elliot’s help. A week later, floats, band, and team were readied for the “second homecoming game.” Wauseon fans were greeted by a large Evergreen crowd and floats with nursery rhyme themes declaring doom for Edon Bombers (to pre- vent unfair float construction it was illegal to alter floats between games). The band performed pre- game and during half-time while floats paraded the field and Queen Shannon and her court were presented to fans. Vikettes added to the entertainment by perform- ing to “The Magnificent Seven.” A second Viking victory conquering Wauseon 9 to 0 crowned the even- ing! Homecoming 17 It’s not over ’til the little lady spins. Six hundred and fifty people visited New York City com- plements of the Drama Club, Music Department and Vikettes. Unable to afford plane fare for everyone, Directors, Miss Huskins, Mrs. Laney, and Mrs. Stegman imported the moods, music and magic of Broadway for Friday and Saturday night Caberet audiences. To recreate New York City’s glamour, auditions were held, sets designed and built, and a script was written. Eighty students com- bined their talents to create a variety of acts rangeing from elevator skits, vocal and in- strumental renditions, to dance numbers. Applause was one way success was measured. But for cast members it was the directors’ cart- wheels that signified success.

A long night to remember. In an effort to make the prom outstanding, the Class of ’88 chose Holland Gardens for a location. Because affordable bands were not capable of providing the quality and variety of music desired, a disc-jockey Mr. Entertainer was hired. Using that source of music students could request what they wanted to hear. Silver and blue balloons floated above tables and dance floor setting the mood for A Night to Remember. Silver amd blue memory books and nut cups carried the theme and served as keepsakes. About two-hundred people enjoyed eating, dancing, and getting pictures taken. Of course, a major topic for conversation was how great everyone looked dressed in formal clothes. A most remarkable outfit was Steve Garlicks’ blue denim tux, designed and sewn by Steve, with some help from mother. Following the prom, an after-prom, paid for by junior parents, was held at Aquarius Athletics. It gave students a chance to let off steam swimming, playing volleyball or racquet ball; relax and watch movies; or eat. Center left; Victor Marvin and Jenny Patek dance to the music of Mr. Entertainer.

Prom 2: Having finished exams more than a week before, seniors return- ed one last time, June 7, for graduation ceremonies. It was a warm windy day as they gathered in the cafeteria. A harried Mrs. Schmidt separated seniors from family and friends and sorted them into proper order for their march to the football field. Guests found positions in bleachers or folding chairs as the band and choirs took their positions. Several youngsters, unaware of the inpor- tance of the event, scampered through the crowd eluding paren- tal discipline. Board members and administrators joined speakers Ms. Ogden, Shannon Wallace, Mary Jo Kreuz and Greg Hoffman on the stage. Once the seniors arrived it was parents’ turn to scamper throughout asiles and seats vieing for the best positions to photograph their favorite graduates. In only an hour, speeches were given, music had played, evrey senior had received a diploma, and the Class of 87 became alumnae.

As she is escorted to take her place as a new member, Lori Loch (below) also shows composure at an exciting time. Selecting individuals to be honored can be controversial as so many circumstances deserve con- sideration. However, that outstan- ding achievement deserved recognition was not disputed and National Honor Society held an important place. Students con- sidered for membership had to be judged in the areas of Scholarship, Citizenship, and Leadership. The standards were set by the national organization which also based the size of our group on total school enrollment. Not content to just enjoy their honors, the twelve members chosen in previous years sought ways to promote scholarship among all students. With the leadership of Adviser Miss Huber they sponsered such events as the Honors Banquet where students who had earned placement on the Honor Rolls received recognition for their accomplishments. To fund such acitivities, members sold “Take Two” entertainment pass books. Center left; Alone in the spotlight, Jana Peebles makes her presentation.

Most noticeabe was a decrease in teachers, resulting in combined classes, like conservation and landscaping, Members maintained a schedule encompassing a variety of events. Competitions, including livestock and soil judging, parliamentary proceedure, and public speaking, took students throughout the district, county and to Columbus. Expenses were defrayed with fun- draisers like popcorn and fruit sales which also helped purchase jackets. Summertime brought work and also fun like trips to Cedar Point or canoeing. A formal banquet honored awards, achievements and com- munity members who helped sup- port F.F.A ... It took two hours to recognize all those involved.

Their work was displayed in school library and showcases. Spring Arts Festival was when students displayed their collected works. Besides enjoying a change of pace during the school day, art gained an advantage.

A well-traveled teacher. Miss Jennings moved bet- ween at least four different classrooms daily, as she changed locations to teach typing, shorthand, business math, and accounting. Her business courses offered students a basic start in skills they would find useful for secretarial, bookkeeping, business and computer careers. A large number of students chose typing courses because they wished to master keyboard skills for com- puters. Shorthand classes could also be useful for note- taking college students, while classes with accounting and bookkeeping skills would car- ryover into personal money management too.

If you want to compete, you’ll have to compute, was a message that came through loud and clear to students. They filled computer classes and strove to master BASIC programing skills so they would feel capable of compe- teing in tomorrow’s job markets. Like most schools the computers used in class were Apples, and we were able to offer the opportunity to become computer compe- tant to all interested students.

Like it or not, anyone who planned to graduate had to accumulate at least three credits of English. College-bound individuals were en- courage to have four. Each level featured composition, literature, vocabulary and spelling in the cur- riculum. Freshmen struggled with grammar, an autobiography, and Romeo and Juliet. Sophomores kept journals, studied poetry and, of course, wrote term papers. American literature was the focus of juniors while they continued to refine the art of research writing. Seniors wanting the fourth credit could choose bet- ween Senior English, with a world literature focus, or Honors English featuring British literature. General English classes were designed to rein- force basic communication skills and counted as a required credit.

Another busy year for drama club included parties, like Hallo- ween and Christmas, theater trips, and performances. Guided by Ad- viser Miss Huskins’ leadership they kept pace with an active schedule. Their biggest event was co-sponsering “Cabaret” with the music department and the Vikct- tes. Members were featured in skits and served as host-narrators for the show. They also did much to produce the production working in publicity, set building and as stage hands and light crew.

Having signed up for what they expected was an “easy” class, Valhalla members quickly came to a concensus that it was more like a job. Selling advertising, designing layout standards, setting styles and keeping abreast of school activities was overwhelming . They learned to tackle each challenge as it arose and divided work among six members with support from Katie Eisel who helped with word pro- cessing and art design. They were the first staff to use a computor for copy and index. While learning its complexitites was frustrating, it was better than retyping copy after each revision. Only once did copy disappear. It was fortunate Lorrie Witt was well organized, had a spare, and easily replaced what the computor “ate.” Staff and Mrs. VanGorder were grateful Taylor Publishing offered a way to acquire a computor without additional expense to the school. It was interesting that a majority of the staff signed up for a second year. Senior Annette Gillen feels “One ofthe advantages is that if you volunteer for taking pictures you get right into the action and almost feel a part of the team. It can be risky too. If you are not watching, you or the equipment can get damaged. Staff members felt their job impor- tant enough to continue working after the end of school. Individuals such as Dave Miller came as early as 7 A.M., before going to work, to finish pages. 39 In the news Right; Accruate proofing is important, and Sheri DcBruin takes care to eliminate all possible errors.

Scheduling conflicts prevented potential Viking Ex- plorer staff members from being in the class, so a new approach was used. Three full-time members met daily during school hours and were the core of the staff. They were helped by five reporters who worked after school and during study halls collecting news and writing articles for publication. Their combined efforts, in- structed by Miss Huskins, pro- duced six issues spaced throughout the year. Their most time consuming project was publishing Senior Profiles which also included class wills. It meant time spent collecting necessary facts from each senior, then a lot more time processing it all onto disks and then collating duplicated pages and handling distribution. 40 Newspaper PHYSICAL EDUCATION HEALTH Top: Before taking a lap around the school, Trevert Moldiney stretches as part of the morning exercises in gym class.

Because Freshmen P.E. shared the same hour as health, students needed to com- plete a semester of P.E. during their sophomore, junior or senior years. Classes approached the idea of life-long physical education featuring sports and activities that could be done as healthy recreation.

Above right: Combining band and Spanish, Julie Laver, Robyn Lambert, and Melissa Allen choose to play their way through the re- quired Spainish project. It’s not foreign, its understood. “Foreign” usually means from far away. The goal of French and Spanish classes was to make the world smaller and people a little closer through understanding another language. A language was not required, but it was strongly recommended for those seeking college education or a business career. A conversational and writ- ten approach was taken so students were working toward gaining the ability to fully com- municate in another language. Culture studies were included to enhance understanding. Though considered a deman- ding class there was enough in- terest to make it necessary to offer independent study courses for fourth-year, students. What made language attractive, besides the ad- vantages for careers, was involve- ment in Foreign Language Club and the opportunity to travel with the group. Students have also had the opportunity to share their homes with French-speaking students over summer months. 6th year in District 2nd year in District. Left: Row one: Lisa Miller. Lori Loch.

To be eligible to join, a student must have been enrolled in a French or Spanish class or have successfully completed a year’s foreign language study. The club enabled students to explor food, music, customs, and celebrations of French or Spanish speaking nations. In addtition to activities at school, they visited local colleges to see plays presented in French or Spanish and took part in the University of Toledo Foreign Language Day competition. A yearly opportunity occurs for in- terested students to visit another country with the club. Trips alter- nate between Spanish and French speaking countries.

Going to Four-County gave students many advantages, but those attending expressed a com- mon concern; feeling left-out or excluded from the social activities at their home school. It was dif- ficult, if not impossible, to put in a full day and make it back to Evergreen for club meetings or a sports practice. Four-County did have their own organizations, but they did not help students feel closer to their home school. To help coordinate the two buildings, a homeroom section was created for Four-county students who met at the high school for the bus ride or to car pool. It met in the cafeteria and made it easier for students to be included in voting, surveys, and announcements. The problem wasn’t completely solved because many students drove from home and did not stop by the school. An- nouncements were sent to Four- county to be posted and notices were often sent to homes of Four- county students in an attempt to make it easier for them to stay in touch.

Preparations for the future began in home economic courses. Students learned how to cook and prepare nutritious meals in food courses, while having a good time working together. Sewing classes studied not only how to make clothes but also created their own stuffed animals. Child developemt classes learned from books and lectures and real ex- perience. After studying about young children they conducted a play school for local pre-school age youngsters. While students did work for and receive grades they will really know how much they learned in home economics when it comes time for them to begin housekeeping for themselves.

Not the most talked about class, math, nonetheless, was re- quired to comprise at least two of everyone’s graduating credits. The most basic of those credits were General Math I and II. Those planning to attend col- lege were encouraged to acquire four credits and studied such courses as Algebra I and II, geometry, advanced high school math, statistics and pro- babilities, or theory of equations. Terms such as “Plane Postulate Theorem” and “Pythagorean Theorem” or even “Ray,” most students believed were invented to bog- gle and twist their minds. Other terms that students dreaded in- cluded: metrics, graphing ine- qualities, and purabolas. Just the word “mathematics” was enough to make some students shiver. Despite their worries and worst expectations, students managed a day at a time to complete their homework, pass the tests, sur- vive the ominous exams, and often, to their surprise, derived a real sense of accomplishment upon viewing a passing math grade on their report cards. 48 Math Department Dave Miller and Annette Gillen From Atoms to Zebras. Whether a freshman taking earth science, or a senior in physics, each science student was required to produce a science fair project. Finding an appropriate topic took a lot of research. Some students chose to refine and further study a project done earlier for an elementary science fair. Popular projects included plant growth; animal behavior, especially white mice;, and chemical ex- periments. Though given ample time to complete projects, a frantic rush took place the night before they were due. Students struggled to get volcanos to erupt without exploding, put- ting finishing touches on display boards, or tyring to find ways to make a half-dead gerianium look healthy. March 23 they crawled from cars and buses lugging apparatus, animals and typed reports ready for their turn to present in class. VThe best went on to compete locally and then in district levels.

V Hanging on a note Music, played a part in the lives of a large percentage pf students . A football game would not have been the same without the band motivating fans, and a holiday without a concert would not have seemed as festive. Our department not only fulfilled these needs, but has earned a reputation for quality that made them a valued part of Viking country. Individual students had goals. Mrs. Stegman and Mr. Durban gave the needed discipline, train- ing and encouragement so goals were achieved. While many were saddened to learn both teachers had decided to pursue other career goals , it was important to remember talented students would be here for new directors to disciplne, train and encourange. Being in choir gives me a chance to show how much I love to sing and use my voice in a good way. I just wish I hadn 't waited until my senior year to take a music course, “ Joyce Fonseca comments. As members of mixed choir, Joyce and her fellow vocalists prepared for and performed in the Fall Concert, the Christmas Concert, the March Winter Concert, Caberet, and graduation. Choir members lent their own ideas to the Christmas progam asking to feature music from other countries. To add to the songs they demonstrated customs enjoyed in the areas the songs came from. Caberet, “Magic to Do,” was a mixture of patience and excitment. First, four songs had to be learned, then the choreography was added. “Thank you very much” from the musical Oliver and “The Wells Fargo Wagon” from Music Man they per- formed on stage alone. Joining forces with Chorale they climbed onto scaf- folding to sing “Telephone Hour” from Bye-Bye Birdie. The two groups also joined voices for the finale “I Sing the Body Electric” from Fame . Though the perforance was great fun the rehearsals meant long hours of sitting and waiting between calls to go on stage.

Consisting of instrumentalists, majorettes and a director they comprised 20 percent of the stu- dent body, or one out of every five students was a band member. They were required to attend summer, early morn- ing,and after school practices. Our band performed at ten foot- ball games, home basketball games, the Fall, Christmas, Winter, and Spring concerts. They also marched in parades for Memorial Day, Metamora Park-o-Rama, University of Toledo Homecoming, Fulton County Junior Fair Day, and Cedar Point, and performed for National Junior Honor Society Induction and the Celebrity Auction. Students like Ty Walker said they enjoyed being a member beacuse, In band we go places and do things. It’s a class that is a lot different from other classes. Junior Melissa Vaculik enjoyed her three years because, It feels like free time even though we work. I really like being in band because it's fun.

It took more than courage to sing in front of family and friends, it also meant being judged in “Class A:” competition. In previous years, they had scored superior ratings in “Class C,” and last year they tackled “Class B” and earned all superiors and then on to state where they also ranked superior; so, students and Mrs. Stegman decided to enter the more difficult competition. Though they did not get straight superior ratings, they ranked one superior and two excellents. None of the schools competing managed to earn all superiors One of the reasons students were willing to tackle tougher competi- tions and many group and individial performances was the team family atmosphere they had. A close-knit, supportative rapport inspired members to attempt solo and small group speciality numbers such as the 4Ark Brothers’ (top right) with their “Susie Snowflake” and “Love Me Tender44. Chorale took part in all school concerts plus request perfor- mances for local organizations. Their full-Chorale, small group, duet and solo performances helped make “Cabaret” a success.

SOCIAL STUDIES Discovering our world Students were required to obtain three full credits in social studies. One credit in American Govern- ment, and one in American History, plus a half credit in a world studies were required by state critria. Elective choices in- cluded world history, world geography, world religions, con- sumer education, sociology and human behavior. Government students joined the celebration of the Constitution’s two-hundreth birthday. County Commissioner A1 Kreuz spoke, and following his talk, students released balloons to which they had attached messages explaining what they felt was the most impor- tant aspect of the Constitution.

Individual Attention Seeing each student as a unique individual was the goal of special services. Guidance counselors helped with scheduling, problem solving, career planning and often as link between school and parents. They also coor- dinated services offered by the county. Classes taught by Mr. Smith and Mrs. Laney, although vastly different pro- grams, both met special learning needs of students while they continued with a regular high school program. Though students often came to the library in groups their work needed to be done in- dividually, so Mrs. Hathaway and her aide Mrs. Lulfs worked with them one at a time.

Above right, and right; Duing a basketball fund-raiser, Janet Shin- inger, Julie Laver and Robin Macklin take their turn at working. It’s people like Aaron Schuman that make their fund-raisers a success. To become a cheerleader, candidates had to attend meetings and practices. Once the girls had done that, they made up their own cheers and chants. It was a chance for them to show their personality and creativity. Football cheerleaders were required to attend two-to-threc practices a week, and cheertherc at weekly games. Fund-raisers were a vital part of the season, as money was needed to run the organization. Foot- ball cheerleaders sold pom-pons and but- tons to make money. Basketball cheerleaders also had to at- tend two-to-threc practices a week. Unlike football, there were two games a week and sometimes even three. To make money, they had cake-raffles at every home game, sponsored a dance, and sold helium balloons. With guidance from advisers Mrs. Laney and Mrs. Hathaway both squads put in long hours before the seasons started, so they could be ready. Posters and locker signs were a must! They had to be made weekly. The girls involved in each squad spent a great deal of time on cheerleading related activities , but the fun they got out of it made everything worthwhile. 60 Cheerleaders Nicole Thie ken Top left: Building crowd's spirit.

In preparation for the season, Vikettes attended a four-day camp during the summer and fall workshops to get new ideas for the season. Always busy they had three practices each week and weekly try-outs where each girl had to earn the right to perform. To raise money, the girls sold Avon products, had a coat check at home basketball games, and helped with the Cabaret. The Vikettes performed at all home basketball games, a pep assembly, Homecoming,the Metamora Park-O-Rama, and in several Cabaret numbers. Adviser Mrs. Laney felt that the desire of the girls to be good, and their willingness to put in the necessary long hours made the season a success.

They used actual videos of meets to test their knowledge, then were literally “Put to the test!” They took two written tests: one general questions and one about keeping score. Each girl also scored an actual match. Those earning top scores were chosen for the squad. Once selected they took on responsibilities for keeping stats and filming. Promoting team spirit they made posters, run- throughs, and locker signs. Being a matmaid meant shar- ing team spirit, but called for sacrifices. Matmaids had early morning bus rides so weigh-in could be made. Then after the last match was finished another long ride. With meets scheduled for Fridays and Saturdays they often had little weekend time for themselves. above left; During a meet, Amy Jo Enyart and Theresa Hoffman, make sure their bracket sheets are correct.

This was a group for peo- ple who were dedicated and interested in suppor- ting and improving the quality of athletic ac- tivities in the school. Those eligible for Varsity E were those who wanted to work to benefit athletics; also, those who had earned a Varsity letter attended the meetings and paid semester dues. Varsity E’s biggest fun- raiser was the Donkey Basketball Game. The event attracted a large crowd, which does ‘“pay off’ in finanical gain and enjoyment. The money that the club raised was primarily used for the pro- motion of Athletic depart- ment activities such as purchasing equipment, new uniforms, or hiring officials. 64 yarsity H Nicole Thicken Rapid Recorders Covering all sporting events, school productions, and all other school activities the Video Tape Team helped save important parts of the year. With the help of their adviser, Mrs. Hathaway, they tried to make the best possi- ble use of the school’s eqipp- ment. The team attended practices where Mrs. Hathaway showed them how to run the equippment and the best positions for the shots. Sometimes long bus rides were required for the team members as they accom- panied teams to away games; other times it was just a short walk, but whatever the case, our Video Tape Team was always ther for assistance.

Nicolf Thieken In its second year, S.A.D.D., has an important meaning: “Don’t Drink and Drive!” The organiza- tion was set up to discourage peers from drinking and driving, and to save lives. Members made posters for Homecoming and Prom remin- ding everyone of S.A.D.D.’s message. Near graduation, a week was dedicated to reminding everyone that it was possible to have a good and safe celebration. A special feature was Jphn Reed who spoke to the student body about the accident and death his drunk driving caused. He told how his actions had brought hardships to the family of his victum, his family and himself. Having a man stand in front of the assembly and admitt killing a child was strong reinforcement of S.A.D.D.’s purpose. Parties and fun were part of club activities, but S.A.D.D. was not set up to be a joke. The meaning was simple; Drunk drivers were a serious problem, and S.A.D.D. tried to get kids to realize they could make a difference. First row: K.Carter, K.King, C.Em- mons, M.K.Currier.

Student Council was an organization run by five class representatives from each class,, the four class presidents,and the elected council offficer. They were guided by Mr. Duanne Elliot. The council represented the student body and worked for im- provements for the school. Student Council organized Homecoming, and some school assemblies. They also did things for the community. They helped with the blood mobile, promoted the Fulton County Bike-a Thon, and sponsored a collection of can- ned goods for the needy of our community. As part of their ser- vice to the school the members did a litter clean-up of the school grounds in preparation for gradua- tion exercises. To celebrate the end of their year of service they held an ice creeam sundae, underclass award party in the newly con- structed gazebo behind the in- dustrial arts department.

A lot of work went into the team before the actual season started. Summer brought twice-a-day conditioning and regular practices; also, scrim- mages with area teams to prepare themselves. Once school began, nightly prac- tices were standard as they battled through scheduled games. The Vikings Finished 500 (5 for 5). The biggest disap- pointment was a loss to Swanton because we played so well but lost the game to our rivals. Going to the other extreme, a victory over Patrick Henry in our last game, assured a fourth place finish in N.W.O.A.L. Coach Thieken feels, “The greatest benefit of being a coach is seeing young men and women striving to do their best and working for a team goal. honestly believe that athletics can be related to life in general. If you discipline yourself to do the best you can at whatever you are doing, your chances of success are better. • sa m • How measures a game is played growth and skill.

The em- phasis is gaining skill more than a winning record. Examples of “play to com- pete” were evident when Evergreen played Archbold and Bryan; the games came down to the last two seconds and the reserve team strove diligently for victory but knowing they had given their best, they were able to accept defeat with honor. The hardest game was against Wauseon; They were up against a more experienced and more physically developed team, but rather than quit they diligently strove to win gaining ex- perience though losing 35-7.

Years of experience and skill equal success. “Even though there were minor problems, I would say that my senior year was the best because the team got along so well, and we played together, which helped us get such a good record remarked Edie Meiring. Five seniors, three juniors and a sophomore with experince, skills and unity helped create success. In league competition, we were thoroughly beaten by Archbold; in district competition we wanted to beat them and played a strong second game but lost the third on hard-to-accept calls. We showed we could play well as a team, but losing a game on calls is a tough disapointment. A similar situation with Delta was more satisfying. Having beaten us earlier in the season, they came ready for an easy win. We did lose the first match, but as Missy Vaculik tells, “We came back the other two matches with full power. We made them play defense most of the time.“ “Hanging around the team and coach was lots of fun” was an opinion expressed by team members and supporters. Ex- perience made them intense players and even practices sometimes became heated. Coach Odgen observed, “Coaching was extremely time consuming, but the time spent was enjoyable because the kids made it worthwhile.” Center Knee pads help some, but volleyball players like Amy Jo Enyart still get their share of floor bums.

You can never be quite sure of the outcome of the game until it is over. There have been teams I thought we could beat, but we didn’t, and teams I thought we would lose to, but we ended up win- ning,“ said sophomore Jami Kane. In preperation for the season, the girls attended camps of their choice to improve skills. During the summer, those who hoped to play attended open-gym and regular practice sessions. The most exciting game was the Archbold game. The Lady Vik- ings had to fight for this victory with everything they had, and when it was over, the victory was well earned. The most disap- pointing game was the Delta game, played at Delta. The team tried their best, but came out short in the end. Reflecting upon her second year as reserve coach, Ms. Meir- ing stated, “I feel that our team played 100%. A few games were disappointing, but the outcome made us happy. I honestly felt our team would be a little better. Even though we had our ‘ups-and- downs,’ we worked hard as a team. Toward the end of the year, we fell into a slump which took us a while to get out of.

Running, running, and still more running. “Cross Country kept me in great shape throughout my high school years and has broadened all of my horizonssaid four-year Var- sity, runner Lisa Miller, as she looked back on her Cross Country experiences. Unique, in that they were two teams sharing one coach, Boys’ and Girls’ Cross Coun- try each had separate records to compile. With two returning seniors Trevcrt Moldiney and Victor Marvin, the boys showed a lot of improvement over last year’s records. The Girl’s Cross Country team showed a lot of im- provement starting the new year with a strong team, but injuries such as shin splints and twisted ankles plagued the girls and kept them from giving one-hundred percent. Competing in a sport that receives little public notice can become discouraging and attitudes made all the dif- ference in winning. Without large crowds to cneer, team members had to create their own sources of spirit. “The senior leadership made it a much more enjoyable year for everyone, says Coach Adams, “The attitudes and devotion to being good were much more apparent. ” Nicole Thieken Cross Country 81 r Varsity EVERGREEN OPPONENTS 207 Pettisville Swanton 223 203 182 Morcnci 166 185 Pcttisville Hicksvillc 195 191 203 Wauseon 165 185 Springficld Anthony Wayne 184 172 166 Delta Anthony Wayne 170 169 191 Archbold 174 199 Delta 199 193 Bryan 161 198 Southview 186 399 District 402 Championship Above: While Philip Snyder retrieves his ball, Bradley Geer seems to be unsure of his next move.

It’s a sport where you compete as an individual and can’t rely on teammates to help you out of a tight spot,’’ comments Bren- nan Arbogast, second-year, team member. Brennan was one of thirteen players who began summer practices at Spuyton Duyval golf course. They began three weeks before school without the fanfair and commotion of pep assemblies and cheerleaders. For them even home meets meant a trip of ten miles. Lack of attention was perhaps a plus because they were less apt to get ner- vous or feel the presence of a yelling crowd. The need for concentration made each member a one- man-team, but they com- peted as a team to compile their win Ioss record. Even after the season is over Coach Smith recommends that members go play as often as they can, Mr. Smith feels students should serious- ly consider joining the team because, “Golf is the only high school sport you can con- tinue to play until you die. ” Above: Flag in hand, Greg Hoffman watches as Jason Dominique concentrates on a successful putt.

A strong sense of achievement was felt year with many suc- cesses and achieviments. The wrestlers placed sixth at Sylvania Southview, sixth in the NWOAL, and seventh in the District and Regional tour- naments. Two of the Viking team members also were copetitors in state matches; Senior Doug Willeman placed third in his weight class, and Senior Greg Mack placed in the top eight. A strong team unity and spirit inspired many team- mates and fans made an extra ef- fort to make a trip to Columbus to cheer our guys in their at- tempt to capture a state championship. A unique feature of this year’s team had to be how young and inexperienced they were com- pared to last year’s team with eight seniors. The team was a close knit group, remarked Coach Lewis. 84 Wrestling Lorrie Witt Top left: In a match against Wauseon, Victor Marvin, prepares for a stack.

We greatly im- proved our skills and became closer as a team. The support each player gave one another was the unique quality among our team,” remarked Sophomore Lesley Ott. Consisting of five sophomores and ten freshmen, the reserve team was coached by Miss Harris. It was Coach Harris’ first year as a Viking, and under her leadership the girls com- piled a 9-11 record. Their best game was against Swan- ton; at the half they were down by nine but they came back to win 19 to 18. The reserves not only enjoyed playing basketball, but also enjoyed being part of a team. They all worked together well and were willing to do whatever was asked of them, I couldn't ask for a better group of girls, remarked Coach Harris. 88 Girls’Basketball l rrie Witt Above: After a warm-up shot,, Wendy Barnes, receives encouragement from her team mates.

One junior, and five sophomores competed as reserves. One of their best games was Delta which had strong teamwork which resulted in their claiming vic- tory by just one point.

Although the girls did not have as successful year as they had hoped, they gave their maximum effort and wanted to do better then they did. At NWOAL the team received third place out of eight teams, missing first by four points. This may have been the most enjoyable team to coach that I have ever had in any sport.

Many of the girls found not only was it a new game, but a new experience altogether with learning about the game, rules, teammates and the coach. The most unique thing about this team was the senior leadership. The team finished their season 3-9 in the league.

Most of the varsity team were new and there wasn’t much time to learn to work as a team. Baseball practices began in March and were held outside when weather permitted. Practices were held two to three nights weekly. Some team members did have previous experience including our teams and the summer leagues. When Var- sity won, they won big, but when they lost they also lost big When asked about the team’s performance, Coach Steck commented, Since they were so inexperienced, they did very well and should do well in the future. Reserve players had a credible season with a 7-8 record. Kevin McCready felt that the Anthony Wayne game, where he pitched a no-hitter, was the most memorable for him.

Class of 1988 Starting with a victory, juniors continued their winning streak of homcoming floats with “Hickory Dickory Dock the Vikings Will Clean Your Clock.” Following float building, they settled down to preparing a prom. To earn money for it, they sold locker mirrors and posters. The nearer prom got, the busier they became as music, hall, menu, and decorations were chosen under the guidance of Miss Huskins class adviser. Though they accomplished a lot as a class, individually they also had to cope with such classes as English, American history, Algebra II and anatomy. It was also the year they could choose to attend a Four-County career pro- gram such as costomology, com- putors, or disel mechanics.

IT r 132 Seniors Trina Pifer Their last year was not all fun and games, it was a lot of work. Knowing that they needed twenty credits to graduate, seniors worked to make sure they would pass. One of the twenty credits needed was Government, and almost every senior was in a Government class. Senior exams were arranged so they could get out of school three days earlier. Exams were taken in the gym for two days or until all seniors finished. Seniors did have some fun. There was a mock wedding: an out of school activity for seniors only. Brian Geer and Tito Ramirez were who got married at the wedding held in Alan Garrow’s woods. It was an event mainly to get seniors together and have fun. Then there was prom; juniors and seniors joined for a great time. Another high point was the senior picnic. It was held in the gym and there were games, food and Senior wills. Plan- ning was done by the officers and Adviser Mrs. Schmidt. Best was graduation; a special time for all seniors. After twelve years it was a relief to have finally made it. Top, right: The seniors share their most memorable moments during the senior picnic. Top left: A favorite senior gathering spot was the floor of “senior hall” before homeroom each morning. Middle: Christa Pifer, Mary Jo Kreuz, Stacy Lumbrezer, and Adolfo “Tito” Ramirez wait patiently for their next in- structions so they can begin the next dance during dress rehearsal for Cabaret. Left: The favorite time of the day is always lunch, and the senior picnic proved no different as the Class of '87 scrambled for the food.

We hoped to record the history of the year but in- dividual, first-hand experience cannot be duplicated. Traditions live on in the school and will be treasured rituals for the classes to come. The people that filled the halls and ones to fill later will comtinue to create new meaning for what it is to be the Vikings. t fi Top left: Mixture ready, Greg Mack and Troy Torbit wait for stove space.

Bottom ; A tearful, but happy goodbye is shared by Tanya Walker and Amy Jo Kreuz. The close of the school year makes everything seemed rushed as books arc turned in, exams taken and of course preparations for graduation. But actually a lot of individual work hours went into the 1987 school year, and it was each of those individuals bringing his own talents, dreams and needs with him her that combined to create the Viking Country that those of us who were here will remember. Next year there will be changes though it will look pretty much the same, but after five or ten years though it may be still called Viking Country it won't be the territory we knew. Returning students will miss four ladies who chose to retire in 1987. Mrs. Walbolt (lower left) had been head cook in the high school cafeteria decided she would like to spend more time travel- ing with her husband and left us in December. Mrs. O’Neill, (lower right) finished out the treasurer’s books for January 1987 and then gave the record keeping to Mrs. Neff. Both Mrs. Sutton (top left,) and Mrs. Segrist (top right,) began teaching in the area before there was an Evergreen High School building. Mrs. Sutton began as a home ec. teacher twenty-eight years ago in Lyons and came to the high school when it first opened. Mrs. Segrist began thirty years ago at the east end of the district and first taught in what is now Fulton elementary. They have helped more students than they can probably remember the names for, and although they will not be teaching, what they have already taught will be used every- day by those who have been their students. 11 INDEX Adams, Coach . 53, 77, 79, 80, 112, 114 Adkins, Jim.......................56 Allan, Melissa.........6, 53, 110, 114 Allen, Melissa....... 42. 53,67, 114 Allen, Michael...............57. 106 Arbogast, Brennan............64, 110 Clay, Susan.....................35 Clymer, William............103, 110 Coger, Karl....................105 Coleman, Greg...................132 Conrad, Scott..... 30. 33. 114. 115 Corbin.

They died in separate traffic accidents dur- ing 1987. Colophon The twentieth edition of Valhalla , “Viking Country” was published with the Taylor Publishing Company of Dallas. Throughout the year we were helped by their sales represen- tative, Anita McDermitt. An IBM computer provided by Taylor was a welcome, though at times frustrating, addition. Our six staff members were helped by Adviser Mrs. VanGorder, and Katie Eisel who assisted with art and com- puter work. The cover design was chosen while members were attending Taylor workshop in June of 1986. Division pages required special graphics and extra reporting to construct. All headings, except Organizations, are Windsor in 30 point. Kickers, 18 point; body copy, 10 point; and caption copy, 8 point are in Times Roman. National Studio took underclass pictures. Woodard Photographic, Bellevue, Ohio took senior pictures and sup- Flied the yearbook with camera, ilm, developing, and photographed Homecoming, Cabaret, Graduation and organizations in return for be- ing chosen photographer. Prom court, and some candids were taken by John Laver. Pre-sale books totaled 204 at $20.00 per copy. Advertising totaled $3,415.00, and con- gratulatory ads sold for $ 10.00. Names printed by page numbers indicate the student who designed and wrote the material on that page. Some pages do not have names either because several staff members combined efforts, or the page design prohibited their inclusion.
