Annual Staff Presents “small, but ” 1985-86 Flier Flandreau High School 600 First Avenue West Flandreau, SD 57028 Volume 49 Farm Crisis Affects Area In the past year, many local farmers have been forced to sell out. One of these farmers was Craig Severtson. Seniors from FHS were among the 150 college and high school stu- dents that attended the farm sale. The Severtson farm was scouted for CBS coverage for the Evening News on a farm series. Mr. William Janklow announced his candidacy for the U.S. Senate on February 22, 1986. A crowd of home town friends and visiting Re- publicans was gathered in the Com- munity Center for this Lincoln Day dinner. FHS's Swing Choir sang two songs from the 1950's era at the dinner. The high school stage band pre- sented the dinner music which in- cluded a medley of Glenn Miller se- lections. An auction of donated items from area businesses raised $2100 at the annual Trent Harvest Ag. Festival on March 1, 1986. This money was used to finance scholarships for graduating students from the schools of Flandreau, Egan, and Dells St. Mary’s. Gasoline prices at local service sta- tions have been gradually falling. Over the past year prices for regular gas generally averaged $1.10 per gallon. This spring, prices began falling to an average of $.83 per gallon. The lowest price in Flandreau for regular gasoline was $.76 per gallon with unleaded gasoline about a nickel higher.

Who would be the new 1985 King and Queen? Mike Nass and Sheila Wenge were chosen on Thursday, September 26, to preside over the Homecom- ing festivities. They were selected from a group of eight senior candi- dates. Approximately 200 people attended Little Orpheum and wit- nessed the crowning. After Little Orpheum, students and faculty headed to the bonfire for a pep rally to further inspire the stu- dents for the upcoming game on Fri- day. The Hamlin Chargers defeated the Fliers by a score of 40-12 in the homecoming game. A variety of recorded music was played at the homecoming dance which was held from 9-12 on Friday evening after the game.

Homecoming 7 Survey Shows 46 Per Cent Of Student Body Have Jobs In March the yearbook staff took a survey to find out how many stu- dents had part-time jobs. It was found that forty-six percent of the student body had jobs of one type or another. Common places that students worked were local grocery stores, cafes, gasoline stations, and a re- tirement home. Students, also, re- ported working in a video rental shop, baby-sitting, and on the farm. This survey indicated that students averaged eleven and one-half hours per week. They used their earnings for weekends, clothes, car ex- penses, and college.

Two fa- vorite “hang-outs to meet to go “cruising” were the Trading Post and Casey’s. Students, also, got to- gether at these spots to gossip or to make further plans for the night. While some spent their time in town, others preferred to go out-of-town to a movie or out for pizza. Watch- ing videos was, also, a popular pas- time for students. Dance halls at Hatfield, MN and the Showboat provided entertain- ment for students who wanted to dance or to listen to their favorite local bands. While in school, student's free time was spent playing video games on the computer or reading magazines in the library. During the last quarter of school, eligible seniors were given senior privileges. These privileges gave them a chance to leave the school during study halls and lunch breaks. TOP: Tim McGlone.

Fairy Tale Comes To Life This year’s all-school musical was taken from the fairy tale, “Cinder- ella. The story began with “Her- ald,” Danny Sutton, announcing that a Ball would be given. To pre- pare for the Ball, the “wicked step- mother, Sara Amdahl, ordered “Cinderella, Pam Sutton, to tend to all the needs of her stepsisters,” Sonjia Nester and Audra Lind. While the rest of the family attended the Ball, Cinderella sat at home in her “own little chair. Suddenly, her “fairy godmother, Kara Johnston, appeared and granted Cinderella's wish to attend the Ball. Cinderella's appearance at the Ball brought the party to life.” “Prince Charming, Shane Gerlach, danced with her most of the evening and fell in love with her. RIGHT: Pam Sutton and Shane Gerlach meet in the park after the Ball.

The cast gave two performances of the musical, one on Wednesday. April 9, and another on Friday, April 11. After the final performance, the group got together for a cast party.

Musical 13 Students Attend Special Dances Students attended dances for Homecoming, Christmas, Valen- tines, a special 50's and 60's night, and the Prom. A stereo system pro- vided the music for all these dances but the Prom. These dances were sponsored by the student council, FHA, oral in- terp. members, and the junior class. Refreshments were sold at all dances but the Prom to raise money for other dances. TOP: Russell Hofkamp.

The day after the juniors' had start- ed decorating, a door on the serving window in the kitchen of the Com- munity Center was found to be broken. The incident was blamed on the juniors. But, after much discus- sion, it came out that the damage had been done earlier. The juniors were split on a theme for the Prom. After some controversy, “A Night in Heaven was selected. They, also, did not agree on the col- ors to be used for decorating. After some time, they agreed to compro- mise and decorate the Prom in hot pink and black. Although they had different ideas for the theme and colors, they voted unanimously to ask the Good Times Band to play for Prom.

Conflicts with other activities often made it difficult for staff members to meet deadlines. The Press Convention, held at Brookings on October 14, gave staff members new ideas to help them plan the yearbook. It served as a “learning experience for the new members and “refreshed the memories of old members. The 1984-85 yearbook received a first class rating at the awards ceremo- ny. Student photographers took pic- tures and developed films, while the Enterprise Publishing Co. printed all pictures for the yearbook. Three members of the annual staff attended a summer camp held at SDSU in Brookings. During this time, they learned to write better copy, captions, and headlines.

Yearbook Staff 19 Party To Recruit FHA started out the year with a “pop party to welcome incoming freshmen. This party introduced the FHA Chapter and served as an op- portunity to recruit new members. Regular meetings were held on the first Monday of every month. In a joint effort, the FHA and FFA groups sold fruit in November. Prof- its from these sales were used to help send members to the State conventions.

Carnival rides and a three-wheel pull were a part of the activities, also. Each 4-H group, consisting of mem- bers between the ages of 8 and 19, held a meeting at least once a month. At such meetings, demon- strations were given by a member followed by a business meeting.

The girls compiled an overall record of 10 wins and 11 losses. In the eleven years of the program's exis- tence, these ten wins broke a school record of nine wins set in the 1981- 82 school year. Support from the fans was shown by the noise and loud cheering at a game held at Egan. At halftime, the Flier fans, dressed in their beach clothes, danced to music played by the band. The game’s intensity grew in the second half as the score be- came tied. The fans yelled louder as the time withered to the final buzzer and an Egan player made a basket to break a tie and give them the game, 55-53. “Hard work and defense were the main concepts emphasized by the “B team. Next year, I think the success of this year and the exper- ience of the players will carry over, commented Coach Womeldorf. The girls’ B” team season ended with a winning record of 11 wins and 5 losses.

Senior math participants furthered their algebra and geometry educa- tion and took on trigonometry as well. Physical science introduced the freshmen to the basics of chemistry. Many labs on testing chemicals and running test strategics were done. Physics class studied and conduct- ed experiments to better under- stand astronomy, machines, heat and waves, nuclear physics, and electricity. Students involved in chemistry classes learned the basics of writing and balancing equations. Elements and compounds were memorized and tested over. Many labs were used to find unknowns.

Students in ad- vanced typing worked to improve their typing ability and learned how to use a microcomputer for word processing. Students studied basic accounting procedures, payroll, and the use of computers for accounting in book- keeping class. Practice sets gave students first-hand experience in how a business handles its activi- ties. Learning to understand basic terms for the Apple lie computer was the challenge accepted by those in computer classes. After learning these terms, students wrote programs, printed graphics, and did assignments in word processing. ABOVE: Jerlyn Kolan. Lisa Kruger.

As the weather be- came warmer, they speed-walked and played tennis. Students in industrial arts learned how to draft and construct projects on paper. They learned about and became familiar with types of wood, different machines, and various power tools. The individual talents of each student were shown through his or her project. The basics of color, perspectives, calligraphy, silk-screening, canvas painting, glass painting, and a unit on art history were presented to art students. Drawings of all students were painted and displayed throughout the school.

Other activities besides “traditional” classroom events took place, also. One day. called non-traditional. was set aside for students to go to differ- ent classes. The girls went to “male orientated” classes and the boys went to “female orientated” classes. This, also, gave everyone a break from the regular schedule. On another day. the group watched a movie explaining the use of fire extinguishers. All of these “special days” were de- signed to educate the group for the future.

Faculty 63 Numbers Down In Electives Teaching vocational and related areas was done this year with fewer numbers. Enrollments were down do to increased requirements for graduation. Mrs. Linda Siebrasse found the summer activities of camping, ski- ing, golf, and baseball most enjoy- able. She enjoyed school as a teacher and as a student. For the first time, she taught Geography, as well as, Home Ec. Mr. Clifton Sutton held a part-time job this year checking the arithmetic of and completing income tax forms. He tried to do less lecturing and devote more time to doing as- signments. Mrs. Donna Hendrickson planned classes with changes in mind. Pro- jects were dropped and something new added or old projects were made more interesting. Mrs. Marda Olson felt that computer literacy was most essential because of its vast use and application. Her outside of school activities included music, roping, and barrel racing. Mr. Brian Bergjord approached teaching this year by introducing new projects. Because of curriculum changes there were fewer students in his classes. Mr Dewayne Siebrasse focused on preparing students with the skills needed for a career in agri-business. In the summer, he enjoyed camping, boating, and waterskiing.

Faculty 65 Semester Classes Offered Required ares of language, English and social science were offered on a smester basis so students could be exposed to more areas of study. Mr. Lowell Linder graduated from Valley City State College. Interests in history, government, culture, and working with genealogy kept him busy during his free time. An interest in reading and studying historical simulation were Mr. Dale Johnson's out-of-school hobbies. Summer activities of visiting friends and relatives, swimming, walking, gardening, and reading helped Mrs. Mary James enjoy her free time. Ms. Gail Swenson assured her stu- dents that there was a “practical purpose for information or skills in English. She presented many of her “findings in summer travels, read- ing, or watching performing arts performances to her students. Mr. Jim McGlone, a graduate from NSC, tried to make his classes more fun this year. Along with teaching, he coached football and golf. Mr. Roger Fodness found that his classes increased in size this year. He felt that students learned about their heritage and how the past was related to the future.

Faculty 67 Teachers ‘Coach ’ Students Classes that students enrolled in tor physical exercise, additional aca- demic help, or to use special talents were taught by these faculty mem- bers. In physical education Mr. Dennis Rhead hoped to prepare students for leisure activities in sports and outdoors. Miss Lynette Womeldorf taught coed P.E. with Mr. McGlone and Mr. Rhead. She divided her groups up for various activities to break the monotony of doing the same thing every day. A larger band helped Mr. Steve So- lem build more skills into his band. The “high visibility of the band made it desirable to belong. Mrs. Sherry Nester was interested in sports and helping students with their interests and activities. She helped teach basics, such as, writ- ing checks, job applications, and newspaper units. To meet the challenge of larger class sizes, Ms. Wendy Schutte ap- proached teaching with care, disci- pline, and organization. She, also, took an active interest in student ac- tivities. Mr. Larry Wilske, a graduate of NSC, found that his vocal group was smaller this year. Even though this was the case, his group performed at many civic and school functions.

Mr. Brad Bonde provided students with new experiences which related to Sales and Service class. He used a business community workshop to give students a new view of “man- agement. While teaching at Multi. Mrs. Pat Bortnem was, also, involved with a health committee and teaching CCD and CPR. Students were en- couraged to explore many health fields before deciding on a career.

He. also, attended seminars to help him up-date his automotive class. Mr. Dennis Blocker’s interests in- cluded camping and fishing. He graduated from Southern and SDSU. 70 Faculty People Behind Scenes Bus drivers were an extension of the classroom with discipline and were responsible for the care of those rid- ing the bus. During the school year, custodians put in a 50-hour week. They swept floors, cleaned and disinfected bathrooms, scooped snow, and cleaned windows. The cooks were in school by seven every morning to bake bread and prepare the meal for the day. Spe- cial meals for Thanksgiving, Christ- mas.

During Homecoming week, the freshmen practiced their skit. “The Gong Show, and presented it at Little Orpheum. Later that night, they were initiated. Quite often, the freshmen were stuck with everybody's dirty work. This might mean taking the chairs and music stands off the stage after a band performance or having upperclass members cut in front of them in the lunch line. Anderson. Neil Barboza. Akamu Bauer.

Making sure they could fit the 19 required credits into their four years was a concern of this group. The sophomores found that taking a second year of a foreign language was no longer necessary for en- trance into South Dakota’s colleges. 7 TOP: The sophomore class officers are David Sutton, president; David Hammer, secretary- treasurer; Shawn Delaney, student council rep.; Jason Taylor, vice president; and.

Financial prepara- tions had to be made which includ- ed financial aid and scholarship forms to be filled out. Meetings would have to be held to assist stu- dents and their parents on the pro- cessing of financial assistance ap- plications. Upon acceptance at a post-secon- dary school, topics for consider- ation were dorm arrangements, transportation, and part-time em- ployment. Once the preliminary de- cisions were made, the anticipation of what lie ahead for them was ea- gerly awaited.

By maintaining passing grades study halls and lunch hours were to their advantage. During that time, seniors were not required to attend school. Studying, sleeping in, working part- time, and preparing for graduation parties were accomplished. The senior class purchased and dis- played a plaque in the high school lobby in memory of two former classmates, Ryan Gullickson and Tim Eng. Ryan died in a farm acci- dent in 1977, while ceberial cancer took Tim’s life in 1983. TOP: Debbie Tollefson. Sally Rusk (back), Whitney Christensen.

This year there were eleven seniors honored. Awards received were based on honor, courage, scholastic ability, leadership, and service to both school and community. Scholar- ships received were based on scho- lastic ability, participation in school Awards, activities, future plans, and the need for financial assistance.

The school staff wanted to give some- thing to the graduating class, and they did this by singing the song, The Greatest Love of All, by Whitney Houston. This was the first year they had taken part, as a group, in graduation exercises. Another first came with the drop- ping of baccalaureate services as an official part of the graduation ceremonies. This was done because many of the churches in the com- munity performed their own services to honor the graduates. Practice for graduation entrances were held a week before the big day. This aroused an excitement among the seniors. TOP: Kristene Hammer. Lisa Koester. Sally Eikmeier. and Pam McMahon discuss the up- coming graduation exercises.

Our junior and senior years were filled with excitement. We sold con- cessions and raised money for Prom We all worked together to The class of 1986 of Flandreau High School is together as a class for one last time Today is our day to cele- brate. It is our day to look back upon some of the times we have had. Let us remember the friends. the good times, and even some of make Prom a success the trouble we could get ourselves into.'We are a class that has shared And then we became seniors. Yet. loctrirs notes a Wrs to tests, graduation seemed far away. As the year progressed and we made those important decisions, the countdown began. We ordered our caps and gowns and sent out invitations Now the big day is here! A day we have been looking forward to. and a day we will remember for the rest of our lives. and good and sad times. f Time has passed quickly for us since our first day of kindergarten when some of our mothers cried to see us go. Since we were taught how to read and write. Since we got to take our one and only class trip to Prairie Village in sixth grade. Since we were eighth graders and our big event was Eighth Grade Prom Since we became freshmen. As we look at today’s freshmen, it seems hard to believe that such a short time ago we, too, were just beginning our high school years. Behind us was our sophomore year of having classes with Mr. Linder Graduation is a special day for all of us. A day we are recognized and commended. It is our day to be in the spotlight Our family and friends gather to honor us. Let us celebrate this day. There is joy and beauty in it. For today’s beautiful moments are tomorrow’s beautiful memories. t ¥ June Utech’s response at gradu- ition. S r 92 Closing ! I
