At the good times The Prowler staff invites the reader to take a look at Flint River Academy's sixteenth year. Take a look at the students, the faculty, the activities, and organizations that make FRA what it is. And now that the school has passed that impor- tant fifteenth anniversary, pause, just once in a while, to take a look back into FRA's past. The past can be the key to understanding the present and the future. Perhaps there is no better time during a school year to begin reminiscing than at a Homecoming game. Let the Good Times Roll , the theme of this year's Homecoming. was just what everyone did. Al- though the Wildcats lost a disap- pointing game to the Meadow Creek Chargers, all was forgotten as everyone stepped onto the dance floor following the game. The stu- dents and alumni who attended all enjoyed the wide variety of music provided by Orpheus. The Seniors worked hard to make the gym come alive with decora- tions. They used colored streamers, balloons, and glittered music notes and letters to set the mood for plen- ty of fun and good times . The score at halftime, 24-O, had spirits low, but excitement built with the crowning of the l982 Homecoming Queen and her court. Especially happy were Gay Garrett. the newly crowned queem Meri Reames, first runner up, Kim Seay, second runner ups and Susie Dunn, third runner up. All were Seniors. Freshman Mollie Battenhouse re- ceived the fourth runner up trophy. l. Gay Garrett hugs escort. Gerald Ordoyne. after being announced Homecoming Queen. 2.

Starting Anew ln every new beginning, excite- ment, tension, and eagerness can be found among those involved. This year marked a new beginning for Flint River Academy. The school en- tered into its sixteenth year under the leadership of a new headmaster, Dr. Felix Turner. The students and teachers found that the new year promised many changes. To start the new year, an Open House was held on Sunday, August 29, the day before the first day of school. The wide participation of parents, faculty, and students made this Open House serve its purpose well. Everyone who attended was able to get acquainted with the school itself, new students, teach- ers. and the new headmaster. This day gave new parents a chance to meet the headmaster, school board. and the teachers. Another factor adding to the suc- cess of the Open House was the delivering of the l98l-82 Prowlers. The students had been waiting all summer for the day when they would receive their Prowlers. Ex- citement could be seen in the faces of everyone as they looked back over the past year and anticipated the next year to come. l.
