A X Freshmen cheerleaders form pyramid. ----- me--as ncouragm g Top Performance school says Ms. Foreman, Cheerleaders form the structure of spirit in a three year sponsor. Spirit originates from them. She feels that cheerleading is very important. Monica Foreman expects alot from her cheerleaders and they never let her down. Most of all the cheerleaders are expected to set good examples both academically and spiritually. During the summer the freshmen squad spent time at the annual NCA cheerleading camp. This camp was held at the C.U. campus in Boulder. While at camp the cheerleaders competed with other squads and they performed very well. They received three excellent awards and one superior award. Selling candy bars, cookies and buttons were some of the fund raisers the cheerleaders accomplished. The money raised was spent on the teams they cheered for as in candy, cookies and pop for the athletes. Kelly Mongeau, freshmen squad captain, says he likes cheerleading because: I like to be involved with school activities and I like to go to the games and cheer people on. This year's freshmen cheerleading squad found cheerleading to take a lot of practice, but they didn't mind. They enjoyed the cheering for athletes, providing enthusiasm for the crowds, and the over-all involvement with the school. This years squad was one of the best. Freshmen squad in x-formation. Cheerleaders rise to power. Barb Lynn shows spirit by clapping at a Freshmen football game.

A Spectrum Music Spectrum jazz band is very much a part of Green Mountain's history. lt was first organized in 1975 by Ted Pulte. Mr. Fulte, the first director, got the band to a good start and it has still been going strong. Presently, Mr. Wayne liames is the head director. He came to Green Mountain with fifteen years of teaching experience, plus ten years of teaching private lessons with instruments such as saxaphone and clarinet. Adding to his musical experience, Mr. liames voluntarily instructed college band students for two years in the Greeley area. He spoke favorable of Green Mountain and hopes to stay here for several years. 'gDedicated musicians composed this jazz band , state first year director, Mr. Iiames. After inquiring, the spectator discovers that all spectrum members have several years of instrumental expertise and the group benefits from these talents. Typical events of the jazz band included performing at the Arvada center, concerts, jazz festivals, school concerts and auditions. Being a Spectrum member took hours of hard practice to make each player their best. Concerts were another time consuming event in each spectrum member's life. Mr. liames had put together a series of concerts for spectrum band, which pleased the audience. Spectrum didn't win any awards this year, but they didn't enter in amny festivals. lim sure that next year spectrum will win several awards. I have had the pleasure of listening to this jazz band, and in my opinion they are very gooi. Wayne liams introduces the next numb: r. Mr. liams directs the band to perfection Karen Hobbs and Sandi Bostwick await their turn to play while Susan Higanbotham blows her horn.
