Spirit With Class Fairborn is number one and don't you forget it! Five days of relaxing in the living room, playing childish games at lunch, and hearing cheers throughout the school, con- vinced everyone that Fairborn WAS number one. When Spirit Week came to F.H.S. it had its share of surprises, upsets, and ac- tivities. But after the dust cleared and everything was over, the feeling was that we belonged to a school that could pull together, work as one, and show that we had more spirit than anyone else. Senior Killi Bowers summed it up best, The fun- date Day. Students rummaged through their parents' closets and picked their favorite out-of-date wardrobe. At lunch time the bat race turned many heads. The rules of the game were to put one end of the bat on the ground placing your forehead on the opposite end of the bat and run around it ten times. Wednesday, besides participating in Twin Day, many students in first lunch en- joyed seeing Senior Walter Karns defeat Assistant Principal, Mr. Rick Murphy in the pie eating contest. After school, seniors added a little spice to the foyer by decor- students showed respect and admiration for their school by dressing in the school colors. During sixth period, the Powder- Puff game was played. Unfortunately for seniors, juniors were victorious 24-10. Sophomore Heather Hudson stated. The game was great and the cheerleaders were a major attraction. It was funny to see guys primp so much. The Senior living room was a homey place for passing time between classes, taking study hall, and even holding classes. Many felt the idea for the living room was a very neat and unique idea. Senior Lucia Or was that a class with spirit? nest week I've had this year was Spirit Week and Homecoming weekend. The dance was a perfect end to a terrific week. I saw a lot of spirit and a lot of fun!” Spirit making began Monday with Sports Day, when students dressed in their favorite sportswear. Costumes ranged from football players to bicycle racers. During lunch many were neck to neck in the orange race. The contestants had to pass the orange down the line with their necks. Sports Day was followed by Out-of- ating it with rugs and furniture to make it more like home for Homecoming. Continuing the spirit on Thursday, the seniors met in the Senior living room for doughnuts and milk. As the underclassmen wore sweats and sunglasses, the seniors got out their sheets for Toga Day. It was also the day for showing real strength in the tug-of-war. Friday, many activities were held as Spirit Week came to a climactic end. It was labeled Blue, Brown, White Day, and THUMBING THROUGH his civic notes. Senior Derek Monnig relives the 'Hip Age in his activewcar on Out-of-Date Day. Skow commented, It gave the seniors a , special place just to sit around and talk. , Like we re really a family. A very positive remark about the living room came from Freshman John Whitson. I liked it and when I'm a senior I hope we do the same thing! After a long and exhausting week some were glad to see it go, but most everyone agreed that Spirit Week 1986 was a great chance to let loose and show spirit for their school. • C.
