Its constitution states: The purpose of this organization shall be the promotion of the ideals of honesty, service, and leadership among high school students of America, to reward meritorious achievement, and to encourage and assist students in the continuation of their education after high school. Our Beta Club tries to uphold these values and, by doing so, enrich our school. This year our club participated in several service projects. Among these were raising money for the March of Dimes, working in the concession stand during basket- ball season, and providing a live Christmas tree in front of the school for everyone's enjoy- ment in the years to come. We feel that this year has been a very successful one and look foward to many more to come. A Beta meeting led by president, George Young. STUDENT COUNCIL This was the third year of Student Council at G.C.A. Student Council was responsible for helping needy organizations that the school was involved with. For example, money was donated to the March of Dimes, and donations were taken up at Thanksgiving for needy families. It also gave American and Christian flags to all classrooms. We hope that Student Council will continue to grow at G.C.A. Pep Club Pep Club was a new addition to G.C.A.'s extracurricular activ- ties this year. Founded by Miss Cindy Kirkland, girls' basketball coach and P.E. teacher, the group's goals were to attend all home games in support of the teams. They were recognized by their bright green and gold T-shirts. Yea team!!! JOURNALISM Well, I guess you could say the yearbook staff got off to a somewhat slow start. But the last couple of months, we really jumped in. Our two accomplishments were the news- letters and the yearbook. As you probably know, we were responsible for the last years' newsletters. Also, we were happy to be able to lower the price of the yearbooks. We have learned many new things about putting together a year- book this year. Our pride and joy was the addition of a dark- room which will continue to be utilized in the years to come. Are we through yet? 25 Renee looks on as Michelle and Laura draw layouts for the yearbook pages. Mrs. Peddie offering advice. Trade, Kaysee , and Cathy developing pictures in the darkroom.

Volleyball The 7th, 8th, and 9th grade girls who made up the 1988 junior varsity volleyball team were full of enthusi- asim and excitement for their sport. Even though they didn't win any games at first, their persistence paid off in the end when they won their last three games. Nice try and keep up the good work, girls! Nicole Darsey, Debbie Mercer Kristen Anderson, Georgia Yates, Kim Sellars, Nikki Johnson Renee Jones, Melanie Kimbrell VARSITY VOLLEYBALL Although the 1987-88 Varsity Volleyball season was not a huge success, the series of games rewarded the girls with valuable experience. Under the leadership of dedicated Coach Ron Bolton, many skills were learned and improved upon. These skills will prove to be beneficial in the upcoming 1989 season.

However disappointing, the team showed a glimmer of future success with their first-ever victory over Wewa and a hard-fought loss to highly-regarded Chattahoochee in the District Tournament. The hardships of this season proved to be important lessons. Even with the loss of three seniors, Shean Stafford, Austin Tomlin, and Brad Touchton, the squad is looking forward to next season. 1988 Lady Crusader Softball The 1988 Lady Crusaders' softball teai.i gained much experience this season. The team played a tough schedule, coupled with key injuries to a few players, and a very young team. The young players show r.iuch promise for the future.

You did a terrific job -Rhonda, Nikki, and Sara Louise. Although the girls did a terrific job they couldn't have done it without the leadership of their sponsor Mrs. Beverly What a squad! They're even together off the court. Rhonda Baxley, Sarah Louise Stauffer, and Nikki Johnson Oh Beverly! Smile for the Gotcha!! birdie! 40 VARSITY CHEERLEADERS The 1987-88 school year was a great one for the Varsity Cheer- leaders. The squad gained two new and inexperienced seniors, but by the time cheerleading camp was over in Lakeland, they had improved and the squad walked away with two blue ribbons. During the basketball season, to help raise the spirits of both fans and players, the cheerleaders took part in the pep rallies and pre- sented balloons and cookies to the varsity boys. Throughout the year, through the losses and wins, they provided spirit and enthusiasm. As the year came to a close, definite changes could be seen in cheering ability and spiritual growth.

Our services include editing, design, typesetting and completeJjHM mnifqpturing. Kelli, on May 2, 1970, you were an answer to our prayers.. . Not flesh of my flesh, Nor bone of my bone, But still miraculously my own. Never forget for a single minute, you didn't grow under my heart, but in it. Love, Mama and Daddy And Jesus said unto them ... If ye have faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye shall say unto this mountain, remove hence to yonder place; and it shall remove; and nothing shall be impossible unto you. Matthew 17:20 Tammy, remember that no mountain is too large ----- if you cross it one step at a time . . . LOVE, Mom and Marty Every boy-down deep in his heart- would like to be a hero-to himself, to his fellows, to people around him. He sometimes likes to picture himself in the limelight-being seen and heard and looked up to-respected and admired He visualizes himself frequently as a saver of life, as a protector and de- fender of the weak, as a young man of courage and strength. But most of all he pictures himself as becoming a re- spected, useful, worthwhile man. Walter MacPeak God bless you Brad. We love you. Mom, Dad, Duke, and Evie The white of the lilies The pink of the rose The red of the tulip The goldenrod fair For your skin and your cheeks For your lips and your hair. Out of pink blossoms He fashioned your ears And a sparkling white snowdrop Became your bright tears Then God took the daisy Its petals so sweet For your fingers and toes And you were complete. And the angels were smiling The day of your birth At a Beautiful Baby . . . God's gift to the earth. CONGRATS TO ...
