At The C.P, Fair Take a look and you will see stu- dents, faculty, and parents in Gay, Georgia on the first weekends of October and May. For what can be more exciting than the Cotton Pickin' Antiques. Arts, and Crafts Fair. This fair, originated by Bill F. Gay. has been a big event in the life of FRA for more than ten years. Crews of parents work hard staffing the Deli and Barbeque. Bob Dunn. Charles Rogers, Fred Brisendine. and many others stayed up all night cooking chicken. As a result of these efforts, the Flint River Deli raised more money this year than ever - almost SILK. The deli was not the only place you saw FRA students, however. They could be found working in maintenance jobs, coke booths, or family, church, and business booths. Those who were not working, to the distress of their parents, were spending money on crafts and deli- cious food, or just walking around greeting friends and listening to the country music. A very important event in the life of FRA - the sights and sounds of the Cotton Pickin' Fair. l. Flint River students can even be found working at the gate.

Fun in the Sun The Summer of '82 was a busy time for students of Flint River Academy. The students worked at jobs ranging from grocery stores to pepper plants. Many of the students attended camps and through hard work and practice improved their skills. Members of the Drill Team could attend camp at either Mercer or West Georgia colleges. The work was very hard but proved helpful to the members with their routines. The cheerleaders attended camp at Tift College. The cheerleading squads won a maiority of awards at camp. The three squads were. Var- sity, Jr. Varsity, and Jr. High. For the first time, the football team attended a camp held at Geor- gia Southern College. Many mem- bers of the team agreed that camp was not all fun and games but they agreed the hard work paid off dur- ing the season. Gay Garrett, Jeffrey Todd, Leigh Ann Coker, Simone Rogers, Susan Dees. and Mrs. Voyles. members of the Prowler Staff, attended a work- shop at Auburn University. The staff members competed with sixty other schools in layout design and theme development. The Prowler Staff came out on top and won a Canon AF35M camera. l.
