Ed Knight prepares for an extemp speech. President Pat Singson makes an announcement. Learning To Speak The coach for Forensics this past year was Dave Shepard. Although Mr. Shepard has taught Language Arts and coached Forensics for many years, this was his first year teaching and coaching at Green Mountain High. The forensic team planned a trip to New York and Washington, as well as a number of trips around the state. To pay for these ventures, many fund-raisers were planned, one being a booth at homecoming. The team's president was Pat Singson. The vice president was Carol Bonner. Peter Rolla was the treasurer, and Drew Cozzens was the secretary. The goals for Forensics were to build strong speaking abilities, and to learn to communicate better. Although they had those specific goals, the main idea for the team was to have fun and win a lot of awards. Awards were given to people depending on their scores, compared to others' scores. An award was given to each of the excellent scores, and each of the superior scores. The team consisted of sixteen people, all of whom were enrolled in the class. There were two varsity members on the team. To really be considered varsity, you must have had at least one year of experience. Being mostly a novice team, some of the scores weren't as high as they would have liked. Donna Schoeman commented, All in all the team did a really great job! Gerry Singson poses for a picture.

This year's Latin Club was made up of 18 outstanding and dedicated students. Three new members were accepted and a ceremony was held for them on Friday, November 16, 1983, in which the new members had to recite a pledge for initiation. These new members were: Sharon Roehm, Charles Rich, and Jammie Fager. Monthly meetings were held at 7:00 a.m., Friday mornings in addition to quite a few traditional activities. The year started out for Latin Club when they took part in the Homecoming Parade. Latin Club members made a float and exhibited it at the Homecoming Float Display, at the Green Mountain Plaza. At Christmas, the Latin Club had secret Santa presents and held a holiday party with donuts and cider. A pizza business get together was held during the beginning of the third quarter at Bonzois pizza place. Another yearly celebration that Latin Club had was a Senior Banquet held at the Athenian Restaurant. This year there were six graduating Seniors: Mark Anderson, Scott Anderson, Scott Burks, Joni Hightower, Gail Roberson, and Mike Lenway. For the annual fundraiser, the club sold Italian Ice during the Cultural Arts Festival, which was a financial success. The Latin Club raged with the motto that Latin is not dead, but immortal. It went right along with their theme of encouraging Latin as a language. The Latin Club sponsor was Joyce Fairbanks. The officers were: Mark Anderson- President, Scott Burks-Vice President, Joni Hightower-SecretaryfTreasurer, and Gail Roberson-Publications. The other members included: Tim Fisher, Dave Harden, Jenny Kiteley, Ed Knight, Pete Knudsen, Mark Pancratz, Eric Schaller, , and Joe Schleicher.

These high school students taught junior high and elementary age kids about the hazards of smoking. hopefully, to help the students make the right decision not to smoke, said sponsor Sue Efting. They showed kids how to resist peer pressure and how to say no through presentation and the example of their own lives. They didn't only do it for the quarter credit involved, but because they cared about the subject they were speaking about. None of the members were allowed to smoke or chew tabacco during the year. These GM students held sixty programs during the year and touched around 4500 kids. They covered the Green Mountain, Bear Creek, Alameda, Golden, and Breckenridge areas. They also took part in the 9 Health Fair. Cris Brewer said, We actually put in more hours than we do in a class. The teachers from the schools visited keep asking the Student-to- Student group from GM to return. Steve Brozovich said to the student body, We'll be back next year and we need your support.
