Everybody's Business CATCHING UP 1987 Hi-Life Greenville High School 111 N. Hillcrest Greenville, Mi. 48838, Vol. 70 Sports............26 Academics.........62 People...........118 Advertising .... 152 Closing..........182 The doors were unlocked and the crowds pushed down the halls with their suntans, bleached hair, and brand new notebooks. Greenville High School had come to life after a vacant summer. For some of us, it was a new experience in a new school with blurred expectations. For others, it was a carbon copy of the year before, and they knew what to expect. As we filed into our newly scheduled classes, we sat down and suddenly heard a voice from the ceiling say, “Good morning everyone and welcome to the 1986-87 school year!” Even though we’d been with some of our friends over the summer, we realized there was a lot to catch up on. After, and even during, the announcements we began to get filled in on “everybody’s business.” As the year kicked in, it didn’t take long to realize that the curiosity of finding out everybody’s business didn’t fade away with our tans. Listening to and sometimes repeating (in our own version) gossip hanging in the air was a pastime for many. A job can dictate some unusual duties, but none more different than Trevor Harkness and Tom Scofield posing as Fruit of the Loom characters for a special promotion at Meijers. THEME — 1 Everybody’s Business Student Council was also contemplating new ideas as the year got under way. Plans for Sadie Hawkins and Homecoming involved a lot of time and effort. As with every year, most of us found ourselves with the mid-year blahs after the main event of Homecoming. One thing that woke us up was the unexpected attack of Spinal Meningitis. We soon found out that the only thing infectious and epidemic about the attack was the speed that word traveled and the fears of not knowing much about it. Although we were worried about it spreading to the rest of the school, we were lucky to find it not affecting anyone else. Soon after that, we began to see visions of Prom around the corner. If you were a girl, there was always the excitement and anticipation of who would ask you to Prom. If you were a guy, there was the anxiety of getting the nerve up to ask that special girl. This main event seemed to bring out the curiosity of all when we made it “everybody’s business” to know who was going to Prom with who. The Senior Class jumps to its feet in a deafening roar at (he start of the pep assembly. Cheering students tried to outyell the other classes to gain possession of the pep jug, something Seniors took pride in winning. Coach Chambers zeros in on the psychological aspect of wrestling and encourages this wrestler to win. The Jacket Grapplers finished their season with a record of 21-7. 2 — THEME Doreen German and Jenny Colby present the ideas that Greenville came up with at Project Outreach to the other schools participating in the county-wide event. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Loeschner listen intently to what Mrs. Kroodsma, the Spanish teacher, is saying during parent-teacher conferences. The conference is designed to introduce teachers and inform parents of their son’s or daughter’s progress. Area roads were literally swamped after heavy rains drenched us in the fall. With this much water it’s amazing we didn’t have to canoe to school. THEME — 3 Greenville High School Marching Band struts its stuff at the Belding Labor Day ceiebration. Junior Varsity hoop-sters get in a little pregame practice. The team anxiously awaits the referees signal to start the game. Everybody’s Business OUR BUSINESS Sports played a large role in our year. The biggest event was when Greenville’s Tom Hallock became state champion in the 190 pound division of the Class B State Wrestling Finals and Andy Samann tool second in the heavyweight class. Appearing on the front page of Greenville’s newspaper not only made it the school’s business but the community’s as well. Fundraising played a major role in sports this year. The Athletic Boosters worked at raising money by raffling off cakes at home basketball games. The Varsity Club also held many fundraisers — the biggest being the selling of M M’s and candy bars. Groups weren’t the only ones needing to raise money. Many of us found out during the year that we just couldn’t live off the few dollars mom and dad gave us per week. Having a job seemed to make the wants of the typical teen easier to attain, jobs didn’t always have money for payment as the Highlife Staff found out while creating a yearbook. We covered the business that happened during the year and helped to make it everyone’s business. We welcome you to “Everybody’s Business”. Enjoy! THEME — Paying for college was a major concern for seniors. GHS students check out the bulletin board for scholarship in orma-tion. Senior Chris Fuhr- man operates a special drill press during Sixth Hour Vocational Machine Shop II. 5 Everybody's Business CAREFREE DAYS Monday morning was the ideal time to catch up on gossip. News of what took place over the weekend, from sports to social events, became “Everybody’s Business.” “How was your weekend? What did you do?” These were familiar terms as everyone found out what went on during the short break from school. The first few days back after a vacation were also spent discovering how each of us spent our precious free-time. “Who went where” was one of the biggest items, as we found out classmates with golden skin spent time in Florida, the Bahamas, out West or on a cruise. Vacations were spent in a variety of ways, and it soon became “Everybody’s Business” to find out how it was done. The days grew longer and as the weather became progressively nicer and warmer, it became harder and harder to sit still in class while teachers droned out lectures. We began to make plans for spending our summer days, from lying lazily on the beach as the sun baked us to putting in full time at a job. When the bell rang at the end of the last exam, students poured from the building free of it until next September. We were looking forward to those carefree days of summer. The year had ended as any other. We had experienced our good times and bad, our victories and defeats, our excitement and our boredom, all of which had eventually become Everybody’s Business.” As these seniors demonstrate, crashing in the library lo socialize or catch up on homework was an activity many students participated in. Some brave students took advantage of the chance to dress up and wear their Halloween costumes to school, udging took place during both lunches, with final winners chosen at the pep assembly. 6 — STUDENT LIFE r fr Senior Tom Shrader relaxes and catches up on the latest happenings in (he newspaper. The varsity football games on Friday nights were a popular way to spend time with riends or cheer on classmates and team members. Dances drew a number of students this year as they increased in popularity. The student council hosted dances at Christmas and Valentines Day, boosting the spirit of the seasons. STUDENT UFE — 7 ‘THE ROARING 20’S’ Activities were held daily, ranging from a water balloon toss to a Charleston dance contest. “The Roaring 20's” was an appropriate theme for the 1986-87 homecoming. Activity week, the football game, and dance certainly gave the GHS students something to ROAR about. The week began with the announcement that Craig Averill and Beth VanHoose had been chosen King and Queen by fellow classmates. Also elected were Senior representatives, Tom Hallock and Kendra Hopkins, Junior reps Kirk Maxon and Amy Laurent and Sophomore reps Sean Mullendore and Candi Shrader. Activities were held daily, ranging from a water balloon toss to a Charleston dance contest. The competition between the three classes were competitive but the Seniors won by a large margin. A pep assembly was held prior to Friday evening’s football game with the Seniors running away with the Spirit Jug. If the tough class competition was any indication of the game’s outcome, we were destined to win! The game proved to be the highlight of the week as the Jackets defeated Bay City Handy 14-6. Bay City Handy’s only score came with less than 12 seconds left in the fourth quarter. The defense can also be credited with sacking the Quarterback eight times. “We played real hard defensively and really got after them, explained Coach Engel. Just as captivating was the halftime show. Both the GHS and Alumni bands performed for the enthusiastic crowd. The parade of class floats followed with the announcement that the Senior class had won with their theme, “Our Gang”. Most importantly, King and Queen Craig Averill and Beth VanHoose were introduced and crowned. Following the Jackets’ victorious game, a semi-formal dance was held at the High School cafeteria. Approximately 100 people turned out with several students dressing as original 1920’s flappers.

HOMECOMING — 9 A lot of students are employed by local fast-food restaurants. The hours can gel long, but you get to work with friends. Senior Dan Lafayette spends spare hours working in the new school store. I« Some students chose to work at school. Kurt Cantrell spent some of his senior year helping out in the cafeteria. One benefit of a fast-food job is the experience of working with the public, which will be helpful in later employment. 10 — WORKING LIFE LIFE IN THE FAST °°LANE High school students always seem to need extra cash. That possibly is the reason many of them take part-time jobs before, during, and after school. Co-op jobs are a popular method of attaining work. Vocational director John Gates and coordinator Jim Humble try to place students in the field of their interests. “Co-op made it a lot easier to find my job,” stated Lisa Greenhoe, an employee at United Memorial Hospital. The co-op program isn’t for everyone. Many ambitious students “pound the pavement” in search of employment. Most successes are found in one of the many fast food franchises. “I needed a job so 1 started look-ing. I finally got one at ‘Dominos Pizza’,” says Kathy Beck. The less popular jobs also need to be filled. Most of the time, household chores do not earn the extra cash for students. Unpopular, but often required, behind closed curtains, many students can be found Seniors Allen Demorest and Nanci Blackledge prepare an order for a customer at a local McDonalds restaurant. doing dishes, the laundry, and even making beds. “I have to clean every night but sometimes my Mom helps,” remarked Alicia Howard. Students also volunteer to work for teachers or office personnel. Many times throughout the day, one of Mrs. Neitzel’s VOP students can be found helping a teacher with their work. Their only reward is the experience they obtain. The counseling, athletic, and main offices employ students also. These students volunteer time from Study Hall to help the secretaries. “They do a lot of the busy work that frees us up to help others. They’re worth their weight in gold,” according to Diane Muns, Counseling Office secretary. There are many rewards to working. Money, experience, and even a break from habitual home routines are some of the most important agree many students. Minimum wage pay and long hours characterize many jobs, especially those in the fast food restaurants. Whatever the reason students take jobs, they have pride in their work. A smiling face or a helpful hand is easily found in the young world of work. Fast food establishments provide multiple employment opportunities for those who seek them. Getting to school WORKING LIFE —11 FASHION VARIED Fitness centers and tanning salons became some of the more recent fads. The traditional “Sophomore Orientation”, Powder Puff, and snow days are a few of the events at GHS that fizzled in the 1986-87 school year. Since there was no snow for skiing and other winter sports, students had to find other activities to fill their spare time. As students became interested in looking their best, fitness centers and tanning salons became part of the newest fads. MTV, “Scruples”, “Trivial Pursuit”, hot tubs, and Top of the Rock were all hot items. While Jimbos, hackey sacks, and break-dancing all faded and fell out of the limelight. Fashion varied greatly in the 1986-87 school year. The style changed a lot all year and many students just dressed however they wanted. Mini-skirts, bleached jeans, Coca-cola clothes, Reeboks, Jams, 10-button shirts, and college sweatshirts were some of the more popular items at the high school. Flourescent colors, camouflage, cropped pants, Izods, and the “wet look” for hair were left in the closet. VCR’s were a popular form of entertainment, but we still went to the theaters for the latest releases. “Top Gun”, “Platoon”, “Crocodile Dundee”, and “Nightmare on Elm Street III” were some of the top movies. Skateboards were once again a hot item this year. Jeff Seaver, Jennifer VanSyckle, and Mark Wheeler participate in a skateboard race, one of the activities during homecoming week. 12 — WHAT SIZZLED FIZZLED Hairstyles varied from long to short, curled to spiked. This group of sophomores demonstrate different types of styles. Sports, especially football games, are always a hot item. The cheering crowds faithfully turned out in large numbers this year. Dances once again began to draw interest and larger crowds. D.J.'s were asked to provide the tunes as we danced into the night. Music is always “sizzling” when it comes to teens. Groups like Duran Duran faded from the limelight while other groups like the Bangles grew in popularity this year. WHAT SIZZLED FIZZLED — 13 Greenville's Marching Band sizzled with great tunes for football At the Post-Prom Party, King and fans at Black Field. Pre-game and Queen Steve Scofield and Connie half-time shows were popular for Skinner place bets with Mr. all. Shrader. Laura Pentecost and Chad Thompson demonstrate just one of the joys of being a sophomore — taking part in sophomore initiation at the first pep assembly of the year. Every moment of spare time is often used for last minute studying. Matt Vaughn concentrates on studying in the library, a popular place for studying. 14 — WHAT SIZZLED WHAT FIZZLED 300-399- Sizzled NBC SIZZLED For students who didn’t want to spend their money, there was the reliable option of watching TV. NBC on Thursday nights was sizzling this year with such hits as “The Cosby Show”, “Family Ties”, “Cheers”, and “Night Court”. “Moonlighting” was a favorite, as was “Love Connection” and “General Hospital”. Bartles and James commercials quickly took the place of Country Fresh commercials in terms of popularity. Boy George and Duran Duran A tornado drill sparked some creativity in Mr. Carlton's room as Amy Hornbrook and Jason Nichols seek shelter after returning from the drill. weren’t as hot as they were in the past, and Elaine Joyce of “The Dating Game” had a way of getting on people’s nerves. Without Kevin Matthews, the LAV morning show suffered a severe loss in quality as well as ratings. Bon Jovi and Michael J. Fox were sizzling this year. Bill Cosby was one of the year’s most sought celebrities. 1987 also saw the “return of the red M M’s”, much to delight of M M’s fanatics. Also found on the market was Jolt cola with twice the caffeine as most colas. This was a year of new fads. We saw new ideas sizzle, and saw some old familiar ones fizzle. Who can say what the future holds, we will have to wait and see, “That’s the ticket!” TV shows and TV commercials jumped to the top in audience interest. Lunch choices WHAT SIZZLED WHAT FIZZLED — 15 Dressed as Gumby, Sophomore Brian McQueen captured first place in this year’s Halloween costume judging. Followed in a close second by Senior Lori VViiiison, better known as “The Toilet. Discussing what they did over their lunch period are Matt Haney, Dave VanWagoner, and Chris Gu-j lembo. Senior Amy Butterworth takes time to stop off at her locker before going to her next class. Mr. Walthorn decides that this wasn't so great of a hiding place after all. 16 — HALLS LOCKERS 4 MINUTE DASH As one walks down the halls of GHS before school and between classes, one can hear the drone of conversation with people catching up on the latest news, gossip and banter. Usually occurring at lockers, conversation is at a constant buzz in the crowd congested halls. Another morning at CHS as everyone gathers in the Commons to talk things over a bit before going to their lockers. Often appearing like the Christmas shopping season, the flow of the masses quickly makes its exodus to the next class, often with only seconds remaining before the bell rings. The hustle and bustle and talking are significant social occasions in the life of any high school student. Social contact at lockers, our own piece of turf, can be deceiving to the uninitiated. Appearing alike on the outside, the insides of lockers capture the many personalities of the almost 775 people who stored a multitude of personal belongings as well as books there. Other social gathering hubs included the commons and the cafeteria. While many took off for other parts of town or Dave’s down the street, many would eat at the cafeteria either in the Ala Carte line or the regular lunch line. Wednesday’s were particularly popular in the regular lunch line, as pizza was typically served. During lunch students proceeded with social contact far more extensively than that which took place during the “four minute dash” between classes. Some studied, finished those last minute details on assignments due that afternoon, or lounged around in the commons or library. Whatever means possible, at whatever times possible, students shared extensively in everyone else’s business. Students scurry from one class to another, making time for locker stops and socializing.

What would a Sadie Hawkins Dance be without a hayride? Chaperone Roger Shene-field secures the entrance for a safer ride. A game of chance, Roulette type wheels with numbers picked for winners, provided joy for many big-time gamblers. 18 — SADIE HAWKINS DANCE CHANCE In the time honored tradition of the famous Sadie Hawkins, girls have an opportunity to ask a guy out for a date. GHS‘s traditional Sadie Hawkins dances annually provide the same opportunity. In the fall of each year the dance is rated a highlight along with Homecoming. Dozens danced the better part of the night, with currently popular music being provided by a D). Dress was extremely countrified and casual, with jeans, flannel shirts, and straw hats the most popular attire. Soft drinks, socializing, snacks were provided and jovial atmosphere provided for a good time. A hayride for those interested also contributed to the night being a hit. In the spring, another special social occasion was presented in the form of a Post Prom Party. Organized and chaperoned by parents, it offered a safe option for students to continue festivi- ties. Students were given gambling chips to use at the game of chance of their choice. Luck and skill provided some a bonus amount of chips; others had fun losing to a stretch of bad luck. Merchants and businessmen donated dozens of prizes and students were able to spend their winnings on assorted items. Social Highlights occur both Spring and Fall SADIE HAWKINS — 19 Picking a winning horse in this ashion was Dancing and socializing were the two major purely chance. Players hoped to guess cor- activities at the Sadie Hawkins Dance, redly. MAGIC GLITTER Black, white, sliver decorate JR’s floor Mystical Magic, theme for this year’s Junior-Senior prom, fit the event well as the evening turned out to be a success. Couples danced the night away on the black, white, and silver decorated floor at J.R.'s Roller-castle, with glitter in their hair and at their feet, prom-goers thoroughly enjoyed themselves. “The night was special, the atmosphere was great. I had so much fun. I can’t wait till next year, stated Junior Wendy Wheeler. Near the end of the evening, Steve Schofield and Cindy Skinner were crowned as the king and queen. As couples left for Post-Prom, servers Jenny Morin, Heather Bernson, Dave Johnston, and Ryan Irish handed out souvenier champagne glasses. At Post-Prom, held at the Moose Lodge outside of Greenville, the fun and entertainment continued. Parents ran roulette wheels and blackjack tables and passed out refreshments. Community contributions helped to buy many prizes that were given away at the end of the evening. The biggest prize, a $700 stereo system, was won by Colleen Burns. Doreen German, a senior, enjoyed the event. “There was so much going on, the time just flew by. The prizes were great. It was so much fun.” Taking time out from the dancing, these prom-goers spend time talking. Seniors Doreen German and Casey Raymond seem to be enjoying Prom 1987 by the smiles on their faces. 20 — PROM Most prom-goers attend with the notion that they will dance and talk with their .friends. However, these sophomores had their hands full as they greeted couples and served refreshments. “Mystical Magic” was the theme of Prom '87. Junior Jeff Switzer and Sophomore Robin JCraii enjoy a slow dance together. Prom provided the opportunity to dress up and look our best. This year’s prom attracted a large number of students. PROM — 21 Just a few more minutes—Steve Garner, Casey Raymond, Mark Wheeler, Amy Jones, Connie Skinner, Julie Stankey, Kendra Hopkins, and Leigh Glazier await the end of Swingout, the senior's last day. Mark Wheeler, Casey Raymond, and Steve Garner prepare to begin Swingout. With smiles on their faces, Tammy Vander-mey and Craig Averill walk arm in arm down the aisle at Swingout. 22 — HONORS WEEK HONORS ABOUND Throughout Honors Week, GHS seniors received many awards and almost 95 thousand dollars in scholarships.

HONORS WEEK — 23 245 GRADUATE Parents, relatives, classmates and friends pack gym The 245 members of the class of 1987 graduated in Greenville High School’s 114th Commencement on Sunday, June 7, 1987. A gymnasium packed crowd of parents, relatives, former classmates, and friends sat in the sweltering heat and fanned themselves with their graduation programs as they watched the Seniors receive their all-important diplomas. The Class Welcome was given by Senior Class President Mark Wheeler. Mark also kept intact a Greenville tradition by singing a solo performance of the song “Others May Come”. Mark was accompanied by classmate Koralynn Wright on the piano. The graduation speaker was Courtney Jones, Vice-President and Chief Executive Officer for Merrill Lynch Incorporated. Jones, a 1957 graduate of Greenville High School told the seniors and the audience of the path he took to success. “Accept what you are today. Work the here and now, but don’t rush it — life is long and opportunity will come your way.” As he reflected on his graduation 30 years ago, Jones predicted even more success and opportunity in the next thirty years. “The world today is more than we could’ve ever imagined, but I expect the next thirty years to be even more filled with unexpected opportunity, and frought with constant change.” Former Seniors, Connie Adams, Amy Ban-nen, and Vicki Clark examine their freshly awarded diplomas. Speaker Courtney Jones talked to the Class of 1987 about the challenges that they would soon face once they had walked out the doors of the High School. Former Seniors, now graduates, Jody Waid, Kim Rittersdorf, and Julie Nielson talk and remember old times after Commencement. GRADUATION — 25 A Greenville wrestler battles for the control position and-ivorks his way toward a pin. Sporting events provided entertainment for many students as they watched classmates take on opponents. The crowds were fairly large at most events this year. As the down is being played. Coach Engle and Coach Swanson are already anticipating their next play. Coach Swanson is communicating via a phone to the newly constructed press box. 26 — SPORTS Everybody’s Business CROWDS SWARMED An athletic-minded person was sure to know the latest gossip of sports. If they were an athlete, coach, or just an avid sports lover, they were sure to have the scoop. This year, even the people who chose not to participate in some way in sports were given the chance to hear the news. The morning announcements devoted a special unit to “yesterday’s sports.” They read score-boards and recalled highlights. The crowds that swarmed to games also helped to spread the word. They passed on news of wins, losses, and special moments of the game to an absent friend. Students lucky enough to have a teacher who coached also received the latest. Coaches beamed with pride over wins and moved on after losses. The state wrestling finals made the scene. Two seniors, Tom Hallock and Andy Sa-mann went to the finals. Tom placed first in his weight class while Andy placed second in the heavy weights. The wrestlers received recognition not only from the school and friends, but the Daily News also covered the story. Sports news of the day soon became “Everybody’s Business” as students found it difficult to escape the gossip and facts surrounding the teams. SPORTS — 27 Highly valuable team depth, chemistry create competition Leadership. It’s one of the few. and perhaps the most important attributes of a suc-cess football team. In Greenville's case, leadership was plentiful and as assistant coach Mark Swanson states it, “Senior leadership and talent combined for a good, competitive 1986 football team.” Greenville’s co-captains Craig Averill, Tom Hallock, Trever Harkness, Chad Hinton, Steve Schofield. Max Warriner, and Brett Wicker-ham helped lead the team to their 6-3 season record. The seniors led by example and created a competitive atmosphere for the juniors to take part in. “The thing that impressed me the most was the chemistry between the juniors and the seniors,” commented Swanson. Much hard work and dedication was often displayed on the playing and practice fields as team members competed for a starting position on the team. For this reason, each player became experienced in several positions thus cre- ating highly valuable team depth. By adding a quality coach-ing staff including Head coach Paul Engel, and his assistant coaches Tom Warriner and Mark Swanson to the above attributes you’re bound to have a successful season. And that's exactly what the varsity did. After suffering two losses, Greenville bounced back to a four game winning streak including a 14-6 Homecoming defeat over Bay City Handy. Then after overcoming a hard-fought one point loss to Paw Paw. they came back to wrap the season with two more victories, one of which ended in a 28-8 triumph over neighboring Belding. Steve Schofield and Tom Hallock led the offensive charge with a combined rushing total of 1,471 yards. Junior quarterback Jeff Brown completed 61 of 117 attempted passes as well as adding five touchdown tosses to his credit. Receivers Chad Hinton and Andy Switzer totalled 25 and 19 re- ceptions respectively. Defensively. Greenville had six players with 20 or more tackles. Tom Hallock heads the category with a season total of 64 tackles. Trever Harkness added 49.5 and Craig Averill tallied up 32. At the annual football awards banquet, special recognition was given to several outstanding players. Tom Hallock and Steve Schofield each received All-State Honorable Mention recognition. Coach Engel, re-ferring to Hallock and Schofield, states, “They’re two quality backs, which means opposition can’t key on one or the other.” Hallock was also voted as Defensive MVP and Schofield received MVP for this offensive efforts. Senior Andy Switzer was elected Most Improved by his teammates and Trever Harkness was named Most Dedicated. The 1986 team managers were Freshman Steve Engel and Senior Joe Cooper. Athletic trainer Nancy Bleam was assisted by Katie Myers.

During halftime of the Ionia game Coach Engel stresses some basic strategy to the offense. Finding running room rather easy to come by Jeff Brown slips behind an Andy Switzer tackle for a big gain during the Home-corn ing game. Tough defense, like this goal-line stand against Belding, was a trademark this season of the Greenville defense. “The most challenging part of football is getting mentally prepared to play the game. If you are not mentally prepared then you won’t play as well and there’s a possibility of getting hurt,” according to running back Tom Hallock. VARSITY FOOTBALL — 29 JV team strong performances allow preparation for future The JV football te a m opened the season with an impressive win over Lakeview, 27-14. Ty Hallock and Ryan Irish led the way. Hallock scored three times and rushed for 205 yards, while Irish had eight tackles and one interception. The Jacket JVers went back and forth during the season, winning one, then losing the next and finished the season with a 5-4 record. Season highlights included a 14 point scoring surge against Delton Kellogg in the second quarter and de- fensively allowing Belding a total of 6 points in the entire game. For the season. Hallock led the team offensively, with 16 rushing touchdowns and 1,363 rushing yards. Sean Mullendore followed with three touchdowns and 607 rushing yards. Mullendore also led receivers with 15 receptions for 166 yards. Tony Zandi threw an impressive four touchdowns and ran for one himself. Hallock felt that this team played more together and as a team. The JV basketball team finished their season strongly. One of the season peaks came in the thrilling double overtime win against Orchard View. Bill Saunders helped the cause by scoring the points to send it into overtime. Sean Mullendore scored two consecutive baskets in the second overtime to ice the win. Leading the Jacket boys were Mullendore, Saunders, Dennis King and Dave Johnston. Mullendore scored a season high 25 points against Lakewood, and the team raced to a 25 point fourth quarter against Fremont.

The Jackets finished strong posting three wins concluding regular season play. The team dumped a season high 59 points against Central Montcalm during the first round of district playoffs. Continuing, they battled their way to the second round of districts before falling to a strong Ionia team 68-49. Co-Captain Doreen German led the female netters in scoring, averaging an amazing 14 points per game. Three times German scored 20 points or more including a incredible season high 26 against Big Rapids. She also led the team in rebounds averaging close to 17 a game. Co-Captain Heather Jensen, who was voted most improved, contributed to the jacket cause by leading the team in steals and assists with 33 and 24 respec-tivly. Concluding the seasons fi-nal game, German was voted MVP and Greta Snyder most dedicated. There is some consolation for a tough ’86-’87 season though. It was a season in which many underclassmen got valuable game time underneath their belts and with 8 returning netters to the team next year, Greenville looks toward a strong season.

GIRLS VARSITY BASKETBALL — 35 Girls qualify for state meet, boys place seventh in regionals The girl’s team set some lofty goals for themselves in 1986 and went on to accomplish most of them. Some of these goals that were reached were to have an undefeated dual season of 9-0 and that was capped off by an excellent 11th place finish at the state meet. This marked the third year in a row the team has qualified for state. High finishes in all the large invita-tionals were awarded with four trophies being won. Toni Enbody was the team’s top performer and was rewarded with an all-state selection as she finished eighth in the state finals meet. This was Toni’s second straight year as an all-state selection. Aimee Disser was chosen as team leader and captain. According to Coach Larry Taylor, Only through lots of hard work and desire was this team able to be success- ful. They overcame obstacles of a tough schedule, bad weather, and illness to do an excellent job this year.” Individuals receiving special acclaim were the following seniors: Toni Enbody, Most Outstanding Performer; Aimee Disser, Most Dedicated; Cindy Skinner, Most Improved.

A strong dual season record of 9-3 was capped off with a seventh place regional finish in their 18 team field at Grand Rapids, which proved to be the state’s strongest regional. Many boys made contributions to the team and Coach Taylor says, “It was quite interesting each meet to see who would finish in the top seven. This helped lead to good team competition and a stronger team.” Pressy Nieto finished in eighth place at the regional which qualified him for state competition. Troy Collier was selected as the team’s Most Outstanding Performer, with Greg Blount Most Dedicated, and Rob Bratty Most Improved. Seniors Steve Garner and Troy Collier provided good leadership as team captains. With the possibility of 15 returnees to next years team, Greenville could have its strongest squad since 1983.

Both girls contributed greatly, leading in rebounding and scoring, respectively. According to Coach Dave Kivela “Sharder made steady improvement as the point guard, along with being the teams leading scorer. As a Freshman With deep concentration, Freshman Tracy Morey drives the ball over the net. The JV Jackets ended up 14-15 on the season. Stacy Ingrim came in second in both scoring and rebounding. Also Jenny Thor-lund broke the record for steals nabbing a 100. The teams biggest thrill was outscoring Portland 21-8 in the fourth quarter in a come from behind win. Having such a large team allowed the Freshmen to play a few games. Despite losing both the girls played hard. Although Berson and Sharder were the leaders, everybody contributed to the teams fine performance. The JV volleyball team was a young team this year with eight Sophomores, seven Freshmen and a first year coach. However the girls compiled a 14-15 record, against tougher and more experienced teams. Linda Daniels provided team leadership, while at the same time cheering her teammates on. Sophomore Karen Atkeson was always seen hustling, which inspired many of the other players.

JV BASKETBALL VOLLEYBALL — 39 Cheerleading preparation begins long before athletic contests Although many athletes play in sports that people understand, one sport that is misunderstood by many is cheerleading. The life of a cheerleader . .. What does it involve? Most see the sports as just jumping around and acting crazy. It does involve jumping around and acting crazy, but there is much more. While many are enjoying the summer and their new found freedom of the summer. the cheerleaders are up at dawn to practice for the National Cheerleaders Association camp and competition. Although the early hours of practice were dreaded, the awards they carried home from camp were quite worth it. Camp began each morning at dawn with “Cheerobics”— aerobics, stretching, and getting warmed up for the hard work of the day ahead. The days were full of learning new cheers, chants, mounts, dance routines, etc., and all the evenings were spent performing cheers. As soon as they came home from camp there was no time to rest. A dance routine (performed to the song “Kiss” by Prince), cheers, and mounts had to be perfected by all three squads for Meet The Yellow-jackets Night. After Meet The Yellow-jackets, the games began. Smiles, popcorn, and yelling filled the stands while the cheerleaders fired up the crowd with their enthusiasm. The games seemed easy compared to all the work they had put in since last fall but they couldn’t rest yet. There was a competition to prepare for. Although they didn’t place, they did well and ended the season on a good note. Finally, time to rest. Not for many—Basketball tryouts were just a week away. As soon as the squad was picked the work began all over again. All the cheers, chants, and mounts that are performed at all the games had to be prepared in one week. The life of a cheerleader? Many would say What Life?” Shortly after the season began the basketball cheerleaders prepared for a competition at Rockford Middle School. The cheerleaders made an excellent performance and was awarded fifth place—one squad below being allowed to compete for state. Coming back from the competition, they kept their spirits high throughout the rest of the season. It’s true—the myth of a cheerleader just jumping around and acting crazy is just a myth. Ask a cheerleader wbat her life is like during her cheerleading season. Hard work with a smile is likely to be her answer. Football games are always a reason to smile for the fans, as Tracey Broivn demonstrates. Julie Buchofz, Tracy Betteridge, Jody Han-kis, Tracey Brown, Miss Nancy Dixon, Amy Anderson, Kelly Calhoun, Beth Van-Hoose and Jennifer Powers. 40 — CHEERLEADERS Although Amy Anderson’s pep at basketball games is always high, a look at the score-board has her a little concerned. Pom Pon girls are part of the atmosphere at basketball games. Janet Sirrine shows her skills in a halftime routine. Pep Assemblies are organized by the cheerleaders. One of the highlights at the first assembly of each year is having the new teachers sing the “Varsity fight song. CHEERLEADERS — 41 Cheerleaders Pom Pons busy competing as well as performing The 1986-87 J.V. Basketball Cheerleading squad consisted of: Holly Hunsicker, Missy King, Robin Kraai, Julie Morin, Kim Petersen, Shelly Robinson, Candi Shrader, and Janelle Wheelock. The J.V. represented Greenville at two competitions during the season, the Greater Grand Rapids at which they received 6th place and at Hope College where they placed 4th. Nancy Dixon, the J.V. coach said, “They were a very enthusiastic, spirited, and energetic squad. I was proud of the girls’ perfor- mance all season long.” Coach Dixon says she is looking forward to next year and expects a terrific squad. The GHS Pom Pon squad had another successful season. The squad competed at a competition at Catholic Central where they placed 3rd, ranking high among the teams that competed. The Pom Pon squad this year included: Amy Butter-worth, Jenny Cooper, Mary Ellsworth, Amy Hornbrook, Michelle Hurst, Manager Stacy Ingrim, Bernadette Roberts, Jody Seaver, Cocaptain Janet Sirrine, Captain Lori Willison, and Jenny Zayler. The squad was coached by Susan Petersen. At the squad banquet, Mary Ellsworth received Most Dedicated, Michelle Hurst was given Most Improved, and Lori Willison was awarded Most Valuable. Co-captain Janet Sirrine said, “It was a fun season and we had a good time.” Coach Susan Petersen said she was very proud of the squad and looking forward to another great season next year. Many hours of practice are needed to perfect floor cheers. The JV girls spent many hours practicing like this. Front Row: Holli Hunsicker and Shelly Robinson.

Taking a spill in the jostling under the basket is Jeff Mount. The Jackets managed to maintain control of the ball. Hot shooting may thrill the crowd, but many a basketball game is won or lost through defensive efforts. Tom Meyer and Duane Sowers attempt to block a jump shot by a Fremont opponent. Awaiting the outcome of the shot, Jeff Mount concentrates on follow-through. Jeff was one of the team's best free throw shooters. 44 — VARSITY BASKETBALL Beating state ranked Lakewood one of season's highlights The Varsity Boys started off slow with a loss to Lakeview, 67-62. However, they bounced back to defeat a tough visiting Byron Center team. Jeff Mount and Tom Shrader led the team with 17 and 13 points respectively. The boys played tough all year, ending up 9-11 on the year. Highlights for the team were beating state ranked Lakewood in a home game thriller 74-70. Coach Kent Ingles commented on the game, “We finally had things fall in place.” Another highlight was beating Morely Stanwood, which featured spectacular play by Senior Duane Sowers who lit up the crowd with a slam dunk in the fourth quarter. Also in defeating Lowell the Jacket boys were 32 of 36 at the free throw line, for an excellent 89%. Season lows for the team were losing to state-ranked Ionia twice, 66-65 and 66-51. The Jackets lost their final home game 78-68 to Fremont. A disappointing loss to Lakewood in district action brought an end to the season. Duane Sowers led the team in most offensive categories. Against Sparta, Duane scored 24 points and had 6 steals. He was followed closely by Tom Shrader and Jeff Mount. Also Sophomore Ty Hallock helped the team in scoring and rebounding. Ingles praised Hallock’s and Sowers’ play, “Ty is doing a great job for us, and really gives us a spark when we need it, and Dewey is as good a high school perimeter shooter as you’ll see.” At the end of the year banquet the boys honored teammates Andy Switzer, Duane Sowers, and Tom Shrader as team captains. Tom Meyer was voted Most Improved; Duane Sowers, Most Valuable; Shrader, Most Dedicated; and Jeff Mount, Best Defensive player.

Volleyball teams slow start turns into over 20 win season — Although they got off to a rather rough start, the Varsity Volleyball team got things under control midway through the season and ended up with more than twenty wins. Probably the strongest asset for the ’86-’87 team was returning letterwinners. Two seniors, Doreen German and Kendra Hopkins completed their third year of Varsity action, while Lorri Duram, Deb Armock, Julie Stankey, and Jennifer Van Syckle notched their second letterwinning season. Weekend tournaments made up a major part of the season’s play. Nearly every Saturday, the netters were on the road to one of the many tournaments and in-vitationals. In Greenville’s own 10-team invitational, the hosts picked up a strong fourth place after a second place finish last year. According to Coach Bill Moore, “The season was one of many bright spots-from a team standpoint and also for several individuals. Many people improved tremendously.” One bright spot occurred at the Saranac Invitational. Senior Doreen German had a 43 kill-20 service ace performance as the Jackets went on to take a strong second place. At the year-end banquet. Coach Moore presented several awards. Receiving Senior Plaques were Doreen German and Kendra Hopkins (captains), Jennifer Van Syckle, Julie Stankey, Lorri Duram, and Deb Armock. The team voted Doreen German to receive Most Valuable Player; Julie Stankey. Most Improved Player; and Kendra Hopkins, Most Dedicated Player.

They soon turned things around and got in line by whipping Sparta 21-9, and later slaughtering Beld-ing 12-3, ending the season with a 15-6 win lose record. Pitching was led by Sophomore Shayne Ward and Don Orr. Ward pitched 7 games and 35 innings were pitched by him. He had 48 strike outs and a 3.60 ERA. Orr pitched in 6 games and 23 innings and had 21 strike outs with a 3.65 ERA. In the offensive category, the JV Jackets were led by Sophomore Shayne Ward. Ward was at bat 49 times with 23 hits which gave him a .469 batting average (second highest on the team). Ward also led the team in runs scored with 25 and placed second in the runs batted in category with 18. The Jayvees had a good season this year, and they look forward to the new Seaway League Competition next spring.

JV Softball JV Baseball — 53 Cooper, Jensen pace softballers during lengthy 37 game season During the 87 school year, the Jacket Softball team played 37 games, a new school record. The girls had an up and down season, going 10-9 at home, 9-9 away and 2-1 in the state tournament, for a total record of 19-18. Mr. Hannah commented on the season “It’s as even as a season you’ll ever see, we have nothing to be ashamed of.” The 15 girl team selected Kim Cooper and Heather Jensen as Co-Captains. Cooper had the highest batting average with .324 and led the team in run production. Jensen was named Most Dedicated Player. She was second in batting average with .321 and led in both most runs scored, 39, and most walks, 40, which tied the school record. Team MVP was Jennifer Van-Syckle who had 116 at bats, 38 RBI’s and batted .319. For the past two years, Jennifer has led the team in most all offensive categories. Robin Rittenberry was named Most Improved Player, and played in 33 games and scored 25 runs. Pitching was led by Tammy Betser, who pitched in 16 games for 58 Vb innings and the lowest ERA with 3.85. Missy Moore compiled the best win loss record with 7-1. Betser and Moore both batted a .307, while Moore was third in RBI’s with 27. The Jackets started their season slowly, losing their first five. Then Moore squeezed them by Cedar Springs, 5-4, for their first win. Next came a double-header sweep of Lakeview by Bester, 21-6, and Sophomore Amy Wheeler, 16-6. They qualified for Districts by beating Northview, 15-9, and Ionia 12-11. However, they were defeated by the eventually District Champions, Forest Hills Central, 0-5, which brought their season to a disappointing end.

In tournament action, the tracksters fared well, their lowest place being early in the season (April 11) when they took 11th out of 13th at the Sparta Co-Ed Invitational. At the Class B Regional Invitational in Grand Rapids, the Jackets took 5th out of a 16 team field. At Regionals, Junior Jeff Mount took 1st place in the 110 meter High Hurdles with a time of 15.0 seconds. Mount also broke the record for the High Jump at the Bronco Classic by soaring to the height of 6' 5 . Mount qualified for state in both the 110 meter High Hurdles and the 300 meter Low Hurdles. Another State Participant this year was Senior Steve Schofeld in the Discus Throw. Schofield had the second highest point scored this season and was a team captain along with Seniors Jeff Makowski, Casey Raymond, Troy Collier, and Steve Garner. In addition to Captain, Garner also received Most Improved while Junior Greg Blount received Most Dedicated. Selected for Most Outstanding Participant and for the Golden Shoe Award, which signifies the most points scored, was Jeff Mount. The former school record for the 3200 Meter Relay was also broken this season. At the Meet Of Champions, the relay team of Steve Garner, Junior Todd Bitner, Junior Eddie Nieto, and Sophomore Pressy Nieto ran the event in 8 minutes, 16.7 seconds. Next year’s outlook for track looks great as 27 of the 35 tracksters return. Among them are leaders such as Jeff Mount, Greg Blount, Todd Bitner, and the Nieto brothers Eddie and Pressy.

Boy’s Track — 57 Enbody finishes 7th in State, four others compete in finals On Saturday, May 30, 1987, Greenville sent 5 girls to the state finals in Sturgis. They were the 3200 Meter Relay Team of Senior Toni Enbody, Junior Amy Laurent, Senior Cindy Skinner, and Sophomore Kathleen Doherty, and 400 Meter Dash runner Sophomore Carrie Nielson. In the 3200 Relay, the 4 girls finished with a time of 10:11:8. In the 400 meter dash Carrie Nielson ran 60.98 seconds. The highlight of the day for Greenville came when Toni Enbody took 7th in State for the 1600 Meter Run with a time of 5:21, which is now the school record. Another school record which was broke this year was the 3200 Meter Relay. The record was broke by the team that went to state, En- body, Laurent, Skinner, and Doherty. They ran the event in 9:57.8. At the end of the year Girl’s Track Banquet, the girls selected Toni Enbody as Most Valuable Participant and Most Dedicated Participant, and Holly Hunsicker as the Most Improved Participant on the team.

Girl’s Track — 59 Golfers and tennis players both open seasons with victories The Girls’ Varsity Golf Team started their season by beating East Grand Rapids by a total of 37 strokes. Along the way, they beat 13 other teams and lost only 2 home matches and 3 away matches for a team record of 14-5. In tournament action, the girls took 9th of 17 teams in the Kenowa Hills Invitational with 426 strokes. In Region-als, the Jackets placed 5th out of 17 teams with 406 strokes. The Jackets match average was 208.55, defeating their opponents average of 220.44. The Varsity was led by Junior Tanya Matchett ana Senior Tammy Caverly. Matchett led the team with 155 match points, while Caverly had the best match average of 49.55. Caverly also led in team putts with a 19.11 average. Another team leader was Senior Stacey Burke, who had a 54.42 match average, scored 118.5 match points, and had a match point average of 7.4. Also performing well was Senior Wendy Chambers, who scored a total of 177.5 match points with an average of 7.34 match points. The Jayvee team had an excellent season this year as they scored a perfect 7-0 season. The Jayvee’s were led by Freshman Yvette Fountain, who scored 56 match points. The best match point average was scored by Junior Sue Schied, who averaged 11.25 match points. Receiving their first letters this year were Yvette Fountain, Donna Habel, Sue Schied, Jody Waid, Lori Willison, and Hollie Lothian. Lettering their second year were Tanya Matchett, Heather Riehl, and Amy Anderson. Seniors Stacey Burke, Tammy Caverly, and Wendy Chambers received their Senior Plaques. The Varsity Tennis Team had a tough season, but finished with a team record of 5 Wins, 9 Losses. Even with the addition of Arnaud Luc-cioni, a French exchange student, and Bill Young, a transfer from Jenison, who took 1 and 2 singles respectively, the Jackets still had a touch season. They started The Ferris State Round Robin Tournament, where they Won 2 and Lost 1. Other tournaments the netters participated in were the Tri-River Invitational where they took 3rd place, and the Sparta Invitational, where they took 6th place. In Regionals, the Jackets won only one match as Senior Chris Christensen, team captain and 3 Singles, whipped York Olhauser from Kenowa Hills, 6-1, 6-0. “It was just a very disappointing dav for us.” said Coach Shanks. “We had a bad draw, and did not play up to our capabilities.” Selected as team captain and most dedicated were Chris Christensen. Most Improved Player was DuWayne Platt and Most Valuable Player was Arnold Luccioni.

Girls Golf Boy's Tennis —61 Everybody's Business MAKING GRADES Getting through the year was a task everyone had to accomplish one way or another. Some students chose to take challenging classes, such as Senior Math, Physics, English Literature or one of the advanced five point classes. Others chose to take just the basics and filled the rest of their schedules with a lighter load. “One thing I like is that there are different levels of classes you can take, for example, honors and advanced classes,” senior Jody Waid remarked. Toward the end of the year “senioritis” and spring fever set in and students once again got the summer vacation itch. As the days grew longer and warmer it began to get harder to sit in a stuffy classroom as the teachers drone out lectures. Surviving the year and making the grades was a vital part of “Everybody’s Business.” The annual Michigan Math Prize Competition was held early in (he year giving students a chance to win scholarships. The contest was open to all but the majority of the students participating were Honors math students. Advanced Biology gave students the chance to dissect a cat. Robin Fountain, Stephanie MadJener and Colleen Burns appear to be hesitant about this particular part of the dissection. 62 — ACADEMICS, ORGANIZATIONS The library often provided a break from the day's events. Lee Sowers took this opportunity to kick back and catch up on Sports Illustrated. Project Outreach gave CHS students the opportunity to discuss issues within the school with other local teens. After the discussion, the classes took a break for lunch. Listening is very important facet of all performing arts One of the most important things to learn is to be a good listener”, says Miss Ward, the new performing arts teacher. Two thirds of every day is spent listening, because of this Miss Ward stresses the importance of listening, and not distracting any of the students who are performing. Miss Ward, a graduate from Central Michigan University taught Speech I and II, Acting I, and Debate. Along with these performing arts classes she also taught one English class. As well as being a good listener, good basic speaking skills were techniques of teaching these skills. One of her new ways of approach- ing speech class was to let students do “lip-syncs” of their favorite songs. The record panto-mines were very popular among the students this year. Most of the students who took speech I or II feel it was worth their time. “You never know when you’re going to need to give a speech or something.”, says Senior, Heather Jensen. Although Acting II wasn't offered this year Acting I was quite popular to sophomores, juniors, and seniors alike. Acting was one of Miss Wards most informal classes, sometimes the class would just push the desks aside and sit in a circle on the floor for discussions. As did the speech classes, adding dely with the common disease called ... in scientific terms, stage fright. Another point covered in acting was vocal variety. Students were taught how to use their voice, hands, and facial expressions to create a mood, or just to emphasize a key part of the play. Debate was only offered in the first semester this year. Though the team didn’t have an outstanding year Miss Ward is confident they will have a 100% improvement next year. Senior Scott Fraser also feels there will be an improvement next year when he said “It can’t get any worse!” dlf Forensics: Donald Rule, Rick Ehlert, Miss Ward, Lisa MacDonald, and Carrie Bran-cheu. “Lip Syncs” were a large part of speech class.

A little show of emotion is often beneficial as Senior Speech student Chris Christensen demonstrates. English offerings provided traditional to contemporary; vv ith communication skills growing in importance, it is necessary for schools to keep up with the demands. GHS has met these demands by offering students a wide variety of English classes to suit their tastes and needs. To develop writing skills, a student might have chosen Forms of Writing or Composition. Allowing artistic students to express themselves in words was another practice. Creative Writing permitted expression through poetry, short stories, and plays. “It’s hard work creating something worthy of being good, but it’s worth it.” remembers Tina Shepard. If a student preferred reading a popular choice would have been Fiction covering novels like “To Kill A Mockingbird” and “The Great Gatsby” gave students a new look into literature. Short stories by Mark Twain and Edgar Allan Poe also helped the class grow in popularity. Or perhaps it was the units of Mythology, Vikings, and King Arthur that attracted students. “It’s exciting because we talk and get to joke around about the material”, explains Jenni Forist. Communication breakthroughs were covered in depth in classes like English Literature, American Literature, and Contemporary American Literature. Writing techniques used today and the general history of English were two of the traditional topics discussed in these classes. Other popular choices for students were Mass Media and Journalism. Discovering the innovative ways newspapers make themselves successful was the main topic of study. Students learned the art of drawing creative layouts and taking quality pictures. They also learned to write captions and copy. All sophomores faced the dreaded English class. They chose either 10A or 10B for their last required course in English. Still covering sentence structure and word usage, students reviewed these skills in a traditional class. Not through with their English career, students were required to participate in another year of English. This decision was theirs to make. With the many classes offered in the English department at GHS, students were given samples of about every way English is appreciated in life. Whether a student wanted the traditional English class or wanted something with a little more pizzazz, there were plenty of courses from which to choose. The camera goes unnoticed by all students in Mr. Schmei-dicke's class, except for Sophomores Sean Muliendore and Donald Rule. Relaxing after a busy hour of producing a yearbook, Senior Linda Hinton kills some time with a newspaper. 66 — ENGLISH These hardworking students in Mr. Ingies classroom haven’t got time to smile for the camera.

These English 10 students seem interested in what English teacher Mr. Cardwell is telling them. Maybe its another of his wonderful jokes. ENGLISH — 67 Science classes mix traditional labs with fresh experiences Science classes at GHS would never be complete without the traditional activities and experiments performed year after year. As always, among the other dissections in biology, students had the chance to dissect, and eat squid. Advanced Biology students dissected cats. Senior Rhonda Tate had this to say about the cat dissection. “The hardest part was cutting off the fur, but then we got used to it, and relaxed a little more. I found it interesting and kind of fun”. Chemistry classes conducted several labs over the course of the year. Some Chemistry students even had the opportunity to make candy canes at Christmas. The Physics classes included their yearly trip to Chicago, slinky experiment and egg toss among the highlights of their events. “When we did our egg toss, so many of them worked, because the ground was soft from the rain”, commented Junior Physics student, Chris Petersen. There are also new aspects of the Science Department. New labs and experiments are incorporated each year to add variety to the classroom. This year, Mr. Nolan accompanied twenty Biology students to Grand Valley State College to spend the day aboard their research vessel, the D.J. Angus. Although the weather pre- vented them from going onto Lake Michigan, students gathered water samples and muck samples from Spring Lake and the Grand River, “the weather could have been nicer, but the day was still very interesting , was the opinion of sophomore, Matt Ranney. Explains science teacher Mr. Gowans, “When students go into a science class they discover what will be expected of them, in the way of labs, dissections, or experiments. Some students look forward to this with anticipation or excitement. Others wait with anxiety, but they all know what is in store for them!” 68 — SCIENCE This animal that visited Mr. Nolan's Biology class is part wolf.

As Gina Martina watches the temperature raise, she determines the experiment to be a success. Mr. DeKuiper takes sometime to help some students with their studies. 70 — SCIENCE Sequential Science classes offer further study options One of the most exciting Science classes offered is Physics. This class is made exciting by the traditional experiments done throughout the year. This year was no exception. The egg toss is one of the most popular Physics experiments. The students have to design a container that will protect the egg from breaking after it has been thrown fifty feet in the air. Other traditional experiments were the slinky experiment, the boomerang experiment, and the wave tank experiment. Also traditional was the trip tot he Sears Tower and the Museum of Science and Industry in Chicago. A class closely related to Physics is Advanced Physics. In this class the knowledge they gained in Physics. The class is taken by a small group of students who plan on further study in science related areas. According to Mr. Walth-orn “The class is heavily into magnetism and nuclear physics.” The Science Department also offers Chemistry and Advanced Chemistry. In these classes students learn the hows and whys of chemical relations. Through this class they get a better understanding of the basic elements that make life possible. Mr. DeKuiper, who teaches the two classes, often uses humorous examples to make his point. The final Science class that is offered is Physical Science, which gives students a basic knowledge of science. Brian Stauffer and Scott Hart play with marbles during physics class in order to find out about anguiar momentum. Mr. Waltham uses slinkies to demonstrate wavelength theories to his physics class. SCIENCE — 71 Social topics investigated in Social Studies classes Social problems is one of many courses offered in the Social Sciences at GHS. This course was designed to help teach students how to express themselves openly. Students are expected to give a one minute speech on a topic they are assigned. Mr. Martin has had some interesting speeches this year including one on the topic of eggs. “Students can do pretty much anything they want with that topic”, commented Mr. Martin. This would explain Ed Pretzel’s speech and demonstration on the proper way to egg a house. Another requirement of this course is every student is expected to give a 45 minute presentation on any topic they choose. Topics ranged from Child Abuse to BMX racing. Another course offered that stresses individual learning is Psychology. Throughout a large portion of the course students will learn how the senses effect their daily living. Each year students participate in the traditional blind walk. The purpose of this walk is to teach each student what it is like to lose a main sense. “Mr. Schmachtenberger really seems to get enthused about what he is teaching. Students just can’t help but get interested in what they are learning,” remembers Rhonda Tate. Next year the Psychology class will receive lab manuals and enjoy many new and exciting experiments. This year students had the unique opportunity to assist with hosting the Special Olympics held in Greenville. Each student was given a special athlete to encourage throughout the day and share in their accomplishments. Another course offered is Sociology, the study of human society and its behavior. Some of the topics covered in Sociology are marriage, crimes, and cultures. Even though this course isn’t involved with a lot of experiments like psychology, it still has much to offer. “Mr. Martin made every topic interesting. We learned about people and why they behave the way they do. Everyone knew what was expected of them. Class participation was important, that added a lot to the class,” commented Linda Hinton. This is a one of a kind picture as Junior Rex Higginson is working hard in his 3rd hour Sociology class. Mr. Martin's 3rd hour Sociology class concentrates very hard as they attempt to complete their tests. 72 — SOCIAL STUDIES “Look, won’t mom be proud of us!” Junior Jeff Brown and Seniors Duane Sowers, Joe Newland, and Tom Shrader cook spaghetti for 2nd hour Sociology class. SOCIAL STUDIES — 73 Studying is the name of the game as Junior, Ranay Rydell learns in her 3rd hour Sociology class. Junior Mike King sits with Seniors John Vanaman and Steve Garner as they eat their homemade spaghetti. History, Government required, other classes were electives Although at times they may seem difficult, Social Sciences provided us with just one more way of getting to know past business. Through Government, U.S. History, World History and Geor-graphy students are able to better understand the past and the present. We all know U.S. History and Government are required classes for Juniors and Seniors. However, World History and World Geor-graphy were open to all students, including Sophomores. Government classes gave the Seniors a new outlook on state and national government. They learned how the government works and its effect on the American people. A traditional sight for the Seniors is a visit from a state or local representative. This year a few classes were visited by Jim Mul-lendore, local attorney and Don Van Singel, a State Representative. They also had a visit from an ITT representative, who gave out free pencils. Once again the Juniors had two different History classes to choose from. For college bound students there was College Prep and for the others needing basic knowledge of the United States there was regular U.S. History. One college prep student feels that “the difference between the two classes is the amount of work and in College Prep it is more of an independent study.” World History is somewhat like U.S. History only it covers a wide variety of countries while World Geography is a study of the world’s topographical features. Being the new kid on the block, Mr. Swanson found himself teaching regular U.S. History and World History. The classes are somewhat similar, they both study dates and facts, however, in different aspects of the world. According to Tammy Bester “I like History because Mr. Swanson makes it more enjoyable with his sense of homor.” Taking advantage of some free time, Tracy Betteridge chats with a neighbor in U.S. History. Class time was scarce for Mr. Taylor’s U.S. History students as Edna Roberts takes advantage of time. 74 — SOCIAL STUDIES Mr. Swanson’s U.S. History class works diligently on this open note test.

Amused students listen carefully to what is being said by World Geography teacher, Mr. Chambers SOCIAL STUDIES — 75 Math skills used every , applicable one way or another i eople have been told all their lives that they will use math everyday. To help prepare students for this fact, the Math Department is able to “individualize couses of instruction for students,” according to department head Ron Carlton. G.H.S. offers a very solid Math Department and math curriculum. With classes for the nonmath oriented to classes for students entering a mathematics career. Courses are well rounded. “One of the nice things about math is basic math skills are used everyday. The more challenging classes are mind expanding. It all has application of one sort or another,” says Mr. Walthorn. This year a lucky group of underclassmen went to Hope Col- lege to compete in a math competition. Although they did not win, these students acquainted themselves with honor among other students around Michigan. Two other students should be very proud of their mathematics performance. Dave Gowans and Jeff Seaver scored highly on their P.S.A.T. test and are now semi-finalists. Mr. Sharrow enjoys teaching in the math field. “Most kids like math because they get concrete answers. Math is a favorite class throughout school because they get answers.” He has taught many courses throughout his teaching career. Math is the most fun for him because the kids enjoy being there. Support from other programs helps the math department flourish. A major emphasis in the Vo-cational Industrial program is math. They do a lot for the math department and in return, they receive a lot from the math department. Science is another field closely engaged with math. Science is built on math. Mathematics is the tool of Science. Here again they lend themselves nicely to each other. Math may seem unglamorous to many students. The staff members who teach in this department are very proud of their students accomplishments. They hope to one day gain respect that is due them. Individual assignments and problems to solve are never ending. Julie McElhaney ivorks on one of her many assignments in Math. Most students in Mr. Seaver’s Senior Math class have had him as a teacher all four years of their high school career. As Dan Burns and others know, he is readily available to help. 76 — MATH There never seems to be more time than work to do in a typical GHS math class, as evidenced by this group busily working. Thought and concentration along with analytical thinking are necessary to solve the math problems given. As opposed to other classes, there are correct answers and correct ways of arriving at those answers. Explanation of problems at the chalkboard have been done by math teachers virtually forever. Mr. Seaver demonstrates a math formula for one of his math classes. MATH — 77 Lunchtime finds many Computers I and 1 students Jim Culver, Wayne Krick, and Todd Bitner working together playing computer games. Even Mr. Carlton, the computer instructor, takes a break once in a while to play Ultima IV 78 — COMPUTER r ▼ Shift in emphasis away from programs to searching for use r growing department at GHS, the Computer class is at its best level in years. In the class itself, there are nine Tandys for student use. Scattered about the school are numerous Apple Computers for staff and student use. A major shift in emphasis has changed the reasons students seek computer knowledge. They are no longer yearning to program computers but searching for new ways to use them and where in the future they will be used. This year GHS offered four Computer I classes and one Advanced Computer class. The school’s computers are not utilized strictly in computer class. Teachers encourage students to use a word processing program to type papers. They are also encouraged to do small projects on computers. For example, the school store kept part of its inventory on the computer. Computer I students are subjected to many areas of computer usage. They learn how the computer circuitry works and became familiar with many types of computers. They also do programming projects. Anything from balancing a checkbook to drawing pictures on the screen may be required of these students. “The picture was the hardest to do but if you showed a true effort Mr. Carlton tended to give you an even break”, remembers Senior Laura Sanders of her first semester project. In Computer II students enter into the computer field in more depth. Students do many more programs in this class than in Computer I. The programs also seem to be much harder and longer than ones they remember doing. The thought of the “Computer Evolution” may scare students away from taking the class. But after becoming familiar with a computer, “the computer is your friend”, according to Senior Nanci Blackledge. Computer class isn’t all work. These third hour students use their time to relax and socialize with friends. Computers are used in many subjects at GHS, including Science. Amy Butter-worth is shown here in the science lab next to a computer used by Mr. Walthorn. COMPUTER — 79 Immensely large,busy French Club savors food and trips a n JJeing able to communicate in a foreign language is the goal of taking a French class,” says French teacher Paula Adams. In order to achieve this goal, many third and fourth year French students traveled over 17 hours by bus to reach their destination of Quebec, Canada during the Christmas vacation. During their four day stay, the students were able to finish their last minute Christmas shopping, while experiencing the French culture. This year’s French Club, which is responsible for the organization of trips, banquets, food days, and cultural experiences, was headed by Rachelle Ridel, president; Leigh Glazer, vice-president; Debbie Armock, treasurer; and Shan- non Riessen, secretary historian. The club was very successful in their candy sale which raised over $1,500 for food days, movies, pen pals, the National French Exam, the French scholarships, the end of the year banquet, and a trip to CMU for Foreign Language Day. Each year, the John Rodgers award is given to a fourth year French student who has shown a desire to learn, and actively participated in class. Connie Skinner was presented this award on Leadership Day during Honor’s Week. The $300 French scholarship was awarded to Dan Jibson for receiving the highest score on the National French Exam. Miss Adams’ classroom has an atmosphere quite different from most other classrooms. Anyone walking past the doorway of the French room can usually find students singing songs popular with young French people, playing silly games or sampling authentic French Cuisine. Junior French student Jeff Switzer probably best sums up the feelings of most of Miss Adams’ students. “French is a class like no other in that I am given the opportunity to excel as an individual. Miss Adams is a really fun to learn from, because she makes French class fun. She gives everyone the chance to get an ‘A’, because she cares about her students and she wants them to understand. Conversing independently with the teacher was one way students sharpened their French skills. Tony Zandy is having a friendly chat with Miss Adams. “There goes that darn sign again.” Amy Wheeler observes as Monica Bellinger hangs the French map back on the wall again. 80 — FRENCH French Club: Front Row: Ray Bordeaux, Shelly Robinson, Brooke Parker, Kim Williams, Stephanie Wilterdink, Pam Cooper, Kathleen Doherty, Julie Buchholz.

FRENCH — 81 New Physical Response method stresses active involvement MT .Learning another language is an asset wherever you go. and high school is the best place to start , commented Janet Sirrine. Total Physical Response is the approach to Spanish I this year. TPR as the method is called, stresses active involvement from Spanish students, with minimal grammar explanations. “TPR was better than learning from a book because it is easier to relate objects to words.” But Linda Cardenas is one exception who says. “1 already know how to speak Spanish, so the class is helping me to learn to write it.” There were not many changes in the Spanish program this year, but Mrs. Kroodsma, the Spanish teacher states, “with the influx of the freshmen moving into the high school next year big changes are planned.” In April. Spanish students traveled to Central Michigan University to participate in the Foreign Language Day held annually. For students who want to get more involved in Spanish related activities that aren’t possible during the school day, had an opportunity to join the Spanish Club. With the help of President, Linda Daniels, and Treasurer, Kim Peterson, the club had organized many activities such as the fall candy sale which helped purchase classroom materials and additional computer materials. Top salesperson, Linda Cardenas helped greatly by bringing in $167 profit for the club by selling 69 units of candy. Those who raised their fair share enjoyed a free dinner at Chi-Chi’s restaurant. In April, Spanish students traveled to CMU to participate in the annual Foreign Language Day. The trip was paid for by the club profits. During Honors Week, Meg Mul-lendore definitely benefited from the fall candy sale by being awarded the scholarship that was doubled from last years $150 to $300.

Quiet time is necessary in order for Janet Sirrine to finish this art project. It was one of many that art students created throughout the year. A sense of proportion is a necessary skill in Art. This student demonstrates by freehand enlarging of a photograph. 84 — ART Students had opportunities to show off talenart work Art classes at Greenville High School are more than just classes — they’re a lot of fun. “Art is a great class to show the skill you thought you never had,” stated junior Janet Sirrine. Art class is designed to give students some experience with fine arts such as drawing, painting, sculpture, ceramics, and a little bit of background in the history of art. “It’s a relaxing class that teaches you more than how to listen or how to read,” according to junior Dawn Irie. Greenville High School offers Art 3 and 4 classes to develop a more structured atmosphere so that students are prepared to enter “Art School” after high school. Some members of Art 3 and 4 classes can belong to Art Club. The Art Club’s main purpose is to allow art students the chance to show their work and develop more knowledge of the art field. Students had many chances this year to show off their talents at places like the Community Center Art Show last fall and the Community Dinner last March held at the High School. Seventeen students entered the county-wide Art Show at Montcalm Community College. A member of the Art Club, John Springsteen, received the Golden Key Award for his portrait of Rob Bratty. His portrait was displayed at North Kent Mall where it competed among the Western Regional Schools of the state. There were approximately 150 entries and about 30 keys were awarded. Officers of the Art Club were President Stacey Burke, Vice-President Jackie Wanink. Treasurer Mike Lutz, and Secretary Christy Jessop. The Art Club tried something new this year by selling Christmas ornaments to raise funds for a newly started art scholarship for two potential art students. Kim Cairns was the top seller. The Art Club raised $920 for the new scholarships. Dawn Spencer’s comment reflected the attitude of many others. “It gives you a chance to work with others, as well as with yourself— it’s fun!” Art Club: Front Row: Stacey Burke, Jackie Wanink, Mike Lutz, and Christie Jessop.

Something sure is interesting to Brenda Burns and her little guest in a Child and Family Development unit. “Does this go there? Derrick Switzer experiments in the field of carpentry while the students of Child Development watch him learn through trial and error. 86 —HOME EC Numerous realities of living dealt with in Home Ec classes Although many girls take Home Economics classes, there is nothing stopping any boy from taking these classes. Boys can learn just as much, if not more, than girls in these classes. The biggest three Home Economics Classes this year were Family Living, Child Development, and Consumers Education. Family Living is a semester class open to all Sophomores, Juniors, and Seniors. In Family Living, stu- dents study how people develop over their lifetime. They study the diversities of life such as dual income families, abuse, divorce and remarriage, and death. Included in Child Development this year was parenthood as an informed choice, the realities of parenthood, such as the physical, social, financial, and career adjustment one must make. Also included is selected day care centers, toys, and television programs which are appropriate for children. The highlight of the course is when the students get actual experience working with young children. Consumers Ed is a popular course for students because it confronts them with situations they will face in real life such as credit, product choices, and EFT. Home Ec. classes are for anyone interested in learning more about what their life will be like after High School. Getting to know kids is what Child Development is all about, as Tammy Riley demonstrates with child Derrick Switzer.

The members of the GHS Marching Band had begun a long line of practices for their 1986-87 marching season. The band officially began its year with the annual Danish Festival Parade and the Belding Labor Day Parade. Leading the band during parades, halftime performances, and at Ferris State Band Day. were Senior Cassie Spohn and Junior Amy Hornbrook. The band also performed at the 2nd Annual Central Montcalm Band Invitational. The band put in many hours of hard work. Not only did they practice in school, but they spent two hours every Wednesday night at Black Field. Mr. Hudson feels that it paid off, “This is one of our better bands this year. Their attitude was much better. We also had the best percussion section ever.” On the agenda for next year is the Michigan State University Band Day and they are considering some marching band competitions. Part of the Symphonic Band percussion section, Chris Christensen, Tim Cairns, Cliff Niles, Ronni Franklin, Alan Cluckey, and Kevin Christensen. Members of the Symphonic band prepare to play at Inter-lochen on June 23-24. BAND — 89 Performing, competing occupy band’s balance of school year liter marching season ended, the band celebrated by holding their annual band banquet at the Greenville Middle School. Upperclassmen held initiations for the freshmen and for next years new field directors. For the rest of the year the band split up into two bands, the Concert Band and the Symphonic Band. Other than performing at their usual Christmas, Pops, and Spring concerts, both bands participated in District Festival competitions. The Concert Band was invited to perform at the state capital this year. The Symphonic Band, who received straight ones at festival, have been asked to the American School Band District Association National Convention at Interlochen on June 24-27. Hudson feels this will be an experience for his higher band because the audience will be critical and experienced. The Jazz Band also worked hard this year. Besides playing at the Pops Concert they were invited to perform at Walnut Hills Elementary School. They were also asked to play at Davenport College in Grand Rapids. Officers of the band this year were: Dan Burns, President; Tom Meyer, Vice-President; Maris Lothian, Secretary; Lori Willison, Treasurer. Dan Burns was nomi- nated for the McDonald All-American Band and received the Jerry Martin Award. Tim Carnes also received the Jerry Martin Award and Alan Cluckey received Best Musician. This year Amy Jones received the Music Unlimited Scholarship. “1 have high hopes for next year.” said Mr. Hudson. “Although we will be weak in some areas — flute, trumpet, percussion — I feel that our low brass will be stronger.” Junior Steve Willison had much to say about band. “It gave us the chance to excel as individuals while we worked as a group.” Tami Eastman discusses with Mr. Hudson what the Orchestra will play as Phil Choi and Tammy Silowsky search through their folders.

It gives students a chance to become better performers and better individuals. Joel Van Houten. the Choir Director, was enthusiastic about this years group. The cohesiveness and group effort of the high school students was very evident. They worked well together and it was fun working with them throughout the year.” He also has high hopes for the freshman Choir students who will be added next year. They will be a separate Choir. From the selling of candles, the Choir students raised $6,000 which was used to expand the sound system last year and to buy a new computer. Junior Wendy Wheeler was very positive about the class. “It’s so much more than a class taken for a credit. I never would have discovered my potential without it.” She hopes that next year’s group will carry on the excellence that past groups have shown. Officers for the 1986-87 school year were: Mark Wheeler, President; Shawn Shindorf, Vice-President; Missy Moore, Secretary; and Wendy Wheeler, Treasurer. The Choir and the Village Green were given many chances to demonstrate their talents this year. They performed at area banquets, the Greenville Care Center, Friendship House, and performed at more assemblies, both in Greenville and Grand Rapids. Several choir students were given awards at the spring concert. Among them were awards for Best Musician: Tina Rupert, 10th grade; Boyd Condon, 11th grade; Mark Wheeler. 12th grade. Honors Week award recipients were; Mark Wheeler, Best Musician; Koralynn Wright. American Choir Directors Association and Clark Oliver Vocal Music Scholarship; and Cindy Cavanaugh, Women’s Federation Club Award. Invited to perform at Baldwin Heights, the choir sings Christmas songs to Elementary school students. Do, Be, Me, Fa, So, La Te ...

Anyone planning on graduating must take the class. Before taking the class, some students remembered gym class in middle school, and dreading having to participate in the same activities every year. In the High School Physical Education Class, however, students are exposed to a variety of sports and activities. The girl’s P.E. class took part in some of the traditional sports: soft-ball, volleyball, tennis, and floor hockey. But in addition to these activities, they also scheduled ping-pong, badminton, aerobics and physical fitness testing, and the popular favorite among students — bowling. Every Friday, the Physical Education classes walked over to the Greenville Lanes to spend the hour bowling. Students played one game, and only had to pay $.75 per game. A lot of students took gym in 9th grade just to get the requirement out of the way. So why do the others wait to take it in high school? “Because I heard about bowling and thought it would be fun,” said Senior Jennifer VanSyckle. It’s a nice break from the classroom because you can let loose.” “Besides providing fun activities, Physical Education classes provided a nice break to clear your mind. Sophomore Leonard Towne participates in Physical Education class by demonstrating his skills in jump-rope. Physical Education doesn’t always have to be hard work. The ropes can be used for something other than just climbing.

A friendly young button buck gets and gives plenty of attention at Animal Crackers Petting Farm just west of Greenville. ent diseases and how to prevent them. Soil Science is similar to Animal Science, except that students learn about different soils and climates and how different crops grow in them. Forestry teaches students about different kinds of trees, as well as how they grow and reproduce. Also covered in Forestry are different techniques of woodcutting, a woodland evaluation contest, and a land judging contest. In Landscaping, the students learn how to landscape and to practice as a team on different projects at both the high school and at the elementary schools. In Power Mechanics, students learn the ins and outs of small engines such as lawn mowers and chainsaws. The student is guaranteed “hands on training” because Mr. Bremer tests for at least 20 different skills before a passing grade is given. Too many people take Agriculture classes thinking it will be credit, but once they get in one of them, they realize that its harder than they think. W hile Science. Math, English, and Business may have 2-8 teachers per department, in Greenville High School, Agriculture is a one man department run by Mr. Bremer. Mr. Bremer teaches Animal Science, Soil Science, Landscaping, and Power Mechanics. In addition to teaching, Mr. Bremer is also the FFA (Future Farmers of America) adviser. In Animal Science, students learned about different farm animals.

Time to draw in Mechanical Drawing requires getting equipment and necessary materials ready. Mike Harm-er and Kevin Christensen are about to do so. Greenville High School has a wide variety of Industrial Arts classes. Many students find enjoyment in learning a new craft, as does Senior Rich Fisher. Drafting classes can teach students the importance of concern for detail. Corners must match and everything must be to the proper scale. 98 — INDUSTRIAL ARTS Finishing project bp deadline key goal in Industrial Arts Getting a project finished before the deadline and producing quality work in the meantime, is one of the major things that Industrial Arts classes are all about. Projects vary from training type projects that are assigned so students can learn a very specific task, tool or piece of equipment to projects that students can choose themselves within a wide range of general requirements. Students are taught theory, technique and the ever important safety precautions before trying out their knowledge firsthand. In Sheet Metals class students learn how to bend, mold, shape and weld various gauges of metal. Part of those techniques are learned while making a metal tool box. In Woods classes, students work with lathes, power saws, hand saws, planers, and assort- ed hand tools to make a project of their choosing. Many Industrial Arts students produced projects of such magnitude or quality that they competed in the annual MIES competition. The training in wood, sheet metals and drafting prepared students for other advanced Vocational classes or for use in life as a homeowner or hobbyist. INDUSTRIAL ARTS — 99 100 VOCATIONAL EDUCATION Safety glasses are required in all shop classes, whether working on a piece of equipment or not. A precision drill press is being used by Bob Heaton to drill guide holes in his shop project. Practice for the Chrysler Trouble Shooting Contest provided Gil Devries and Mike Adair with adequate preparation or the state contest in Dearborn. Voc offerings,other special programs expand the choices An envious array ot course offerings in Vocational Education exist at GHS, where many schools in large Class B categories have a relatively sparse variety. Preparation for a career in a given area is one of the many purposes of education; one of the purposes that affords excellent opportunities at GHS. Ranging from training in Distributive Education, Food Services, Automotive, Machine and Coop, these classes provide on the job training in the classroom or through a related work area in the community. Food Service trainees received experience by running the entire Ala Carte line in the cafeteria. Menu planning, cooking, serving and cleaning were all dealt with by students. Timing a meal was of critical importance to be ready for the hundreds of students who would rush the cafeteria for A B lunches. The Distributive Ed program realized a goal of significance in establishing GHS’ first school store, Supplies R Us. Everything from inventory control, marketing, cashiering, advertising, and sales to personnel management was experienced first hand. Vocational machine prepared students with a background in metals, tool die, and experience with dozens of pieces of equipment. Many students worked through coop in a related community business. Vocational Auto provided training to permit mechanics to become certified by the state. The two-year program had plenty of opportunities to apply their learning as students, faculty and staff all kept the work bays regularly filled with needs for maintenance. In the spring, the Auto II class had Seniors Gilbert Devries and Mike Adair compete in the Ply-mouth AAA Trouble Shooting Contest. After a local test, they advanced to the state competition in Dearborn, working against other teams on identically bugged 1987 cars. They finished in the top ten in the state. VOCATIONAL EDUCATION — 101 A new service for students this year was the school store, located in the back of the cafeteria. Alan Demorest displays various products available for purchase. Students enrolled in Mr. Humble's DE class produce signs or the school with a special printing press. Lee Cooper assembles type to create a sign. Mr. Schmachtenberger and Mrs. Neitzel, VOP teacher, discuss a possible project for one of the VOP students. 102— VOP. DE. COOP Moot with you New store opens for , nearly 100 work through coop .Business comes in many forms. Business training is no different. Whether it’s a co-op program, distributive education class, or a course in Vocational Office Practice, the idea is the same — it provides necessary skills for future objectives. V.O.P. begins training seniors for a career in the secretarial field. Introduction to word processors and transcribing machines is only part of the routine these seniors participate in. The girls set up a model office, undertaking various poitions in which they were expected to perform as a professional. “It’s like working in a real office. We were kept busy at all times,” remarked Carrie McKinnon. Distributive education I and II gives students another aspect of the business world. Retail sales are taught in D.E. 1 in a sense that students gain practical knowledge of the field according to Mr. Humble. In D.E. II, students seek sponsorship from an area business for which to work. Some of the students gain experience from the school store. A new idea for the class, Senior Tom Hallock assumed position of head manager first semester. “The biggest thing for me was the experience. The store gave me a chance to work with people and see if that is what I want to do,” commented Hallock. Senior John LaFond resumed Hallock’s position second semester. Looking toward future successes, LaFond stated, “Next year should really go well. We have-set the stage for a number of years of good business down there.” In the co-op program, students enter into the world of business in the field of their choosing. They assume jobs in businesses “for the training not the money,” reminds John Gates. With almost a hundred students on co-op working in retail, manufacturing and service businesses, the co-op program provided substantial learning experiences. Safety glasses being purchased by Alan Demorest rom school store employee Dan Lafayette are one of dozens of items available. Fast food employment is a major source of co-op jobs for Greenville students. Senior Dawn Ames worked at Wendys. VOP, DE. COOP — 103 Basic backgrounds pursued in many GHS business classes Accounting, Shorthand, Typing. Typing 2, and Business Law are all courses offered at GHS to students interested in pursuing a career in Business. Mr. Reed, instructor of Accounting, wants his students to get a basic background of accounting and find out if this would be a field they would consider for their career. As far as plans for the future, Mr. Reed hopes to include computers and possibly a computer lab. This, he says, will help students in quickening the pace of the Accounting class. Senior Steve Schofield “took the class as a challenge.” Not only is the class a challenge, but according to seniors Trudi McCoy and Shellee Jensen, “We enjoy the things we do. Mr. Reed helps make it more exciting with his wonderful jokes.” Mrs. Neitzel is head of the Business Department, teacher of Typing 2, Vocational Office Practice, and Shorthand. Mrs. Neitzel says that her main goal for her Typing 2 students is to prepare students with employability skills needed in the office. It’s working toward exceptional speed on the type- -writer with few mistakes, which is stressed. Shorthand is a different story. Mrs. Neitzel tries to teach her stu- M dents shorthand well enough for them to take dictation quickly and transcribe the dictation with accuracy. Mastering the art of shorthand is the goal of this student, Junior Stephanie Korson. Her concentration broken by the photographer, this student looks up long enough to glare at the camera. 104 — BUSINESS With a smile and some ambition, Terry Stein, Brian Dibble, and Karen Atkenson attack their typing assignment. Ji BUSINESS—105 Junior Brian Dibble certainly looks amused by his typing assignment. Concentrating on speed and accuracy, Bob Johnson and Wendy Chambers work on improving their typing skills. Cadet teaching, other special programs expand the choices Have you ever thought of going into teaching, but wondered if it was right for you? At Greenville Senior High there is a program designed to introduce students to hands on training. Students showing an interest in teaching are assigned to teachers seeking help with correcting papers, gathering new information, assisting students in problem areas and several other activities. Holly Lothian commenting on cadet teaching said, “Taking this class has made me decide to be a teacher. The hardest thing about teaching will be disciplining the students. I hope that I can keep teaching fun for my students and myself so I won’t burn out.” After high school Holly plans to attend Central Michigan University to receive her teaching degree. Kim Rittersdorf, who helps Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Thompson at Walnut Hills, enjoys the kids the most and hopes to go on and teach special education. She recalls the first time she assisted in teaching the class, “I was a little nervous, but they treated me with respect and curiosity. I liked it ... both teachers have prepared me for college by giving me helpful hints.” She will be attending Western Michigan College. Senior Denise Johnson said, “I just love little kids! I’m looking forward to being an elementary teacher. Heather Jensen, “If I could change one thing it would be to require cadet teachers to teach a class a couple of times. It would give us experience in the field we are training for.” Interacting with kids is her favorite part of teaching although she can’t get used to being called Miss Jensen. Heather will be attending Central Michigan next fall. Numerous other special programs expand the offerings for GHS students. Clever sayings and silly pictures were evident in the school store. DE II students got first hand experience at retailing through this special program. VOP classes offer an unusual combination of in-class training and work experience while being assigned to work or a teacher or in one o the offices. Most teenagers get the opportunity to begin their working careers at a fast food restaurant through the Coop program.

Once again this year, Mark Swanson and Roger Shenefield organized many events for the members. Varsity Club allows members to participate in activities that can be both fun and beneficial to Greenville High school and the community. Most importantly, it gives members a chance to share themselves with others, according to Mr. Swanson. As a becoming tradition, the Varsity Club started off the year with their initiation ceremonies that included such things as a scavenger hunt, crazy hat day, purple and gold day, dress-up day, and then concluded the weeks events with a Sunday morning breakfast. Christmas time brought the Varsity Club members to the Friendship House for a special dinner with the senior citizens. Some of the members also organized entertainment after the dinner. Other events included a trip to Detroit for a Tiger baseball game, a pig roast at Wabasis Park, a trip to the High School Football Finals, and a lock-in. There were also events that kept students busy during the summer months. Last summer they decided to take a day long canoe trip down the Pere Marquette River. “The canoe trip was great, it was something different and it got everyone together during the summer,” says Senior Julie Stankey. Another canoe trip is planned for this summer. The Varsity Club also organized some new events this year which included a trip to the Silver Dome to see Wrestlemania III and a trip to Cedar Point during Memorial weekend. Senior Andy Switzer, who has been in Varsity Club for two years says, “It’s been a lot of fun and it’s going to give us great memories to look back on.” Along with the same thoughts is Heather Jensen who commented, “Varsity Club has made my last two years of high school more active as well as enjoyable.” Not only was student interest enthusiastic this year, but advisers and coaches, who restarted the Varsity Club 2 years ago, were extremely busy planning and chaperoning the numerous activities at CHS. Mr. Swanson, one of the advisers, chaperoned the Sadie Hawkins dance during the fall.

Combining tasks and lecture results in Seventieth edition Qeadlines . . . interviews . . . layouts ... quotes ... captions ... YEARBOOK. Browsing through a high school yearbook—quality high school yearbook that is, one may not realize the many hours of hard work that the staff must put into this project. It’s obvious, though, that the 1986-87 Greenville Hi-Life staff has put forth the effort. As they entered their 70th year of yearbook productivity, the GHS staff had a rich tradition to live up to. This high school crew has many honors under its belt, including a special award for the 1986 edition. Last year’s staff received recognition from GLIPA (Great Lakes Interscholastic Press Association) by way of the “Buckeye Award”. (This is the highest award given to a high school yearbook and in 1985, only three were presented to Michigan schools.) Under the leadership of Yearbook Adviser John Larsen, the 1986-87 staff plugged away to produce a yearbook of such worth. When asked how this year’s staff compared to past groups, he commented, ”... the level of creativity and enthusiasm has equalled that of any staff I’ve ever worked with. It was difficult, though, to get everyone working in an area they both enjoyed and were good at while making sure all the tasks were accounted for. With only two returnees, the staff was faced with a lengthy learning process. But as the sec- ond semester rolled around, students had gained the experience they needed and work was well under way. The daily question of whether Mr. Larsen would assign a “lab or “blab” (task or lecture) gradually shifted from the latter to the former; the staff gratefully accepted the switch. The 26-member work force was headed by Editor Jody Waid and Editorial Board members Tracey Brown, Linda Hinton, Floyd Holmden, Doreen German, and Lori Willison. Heather Jensen, Eric Cardwell, and Andy Kortez editorialized the sports section. ]ody Waid dominated layout and design while Floyd Holmden and Mat Haney headed up the area of photography. After surveying GHS students, Seniors Eric Cardwell and Andy Kories compile the results. The data was then used on the graphs and charts located in the student life section. In order to meet production costs, the yearbook must sell advertising. Mr. Larsen explains to Senior flhonda Tate the procedure for selling and creating layouts. 110 — YEARBOOK Creativity with layouts is a must for any yearbook.

This is just one of the positive comments that members made. After last year’s Mayor, Mike Schmiedicke, stepped down from the position, Doreen German took over. The Council jumped into action during the first few days of the new school year. Plans were put underway to provide student tutoring and to purchase a school stereo. Both were successful. Along with four other school organizations, the stereo was purchased by the Council. It was used during lunch and was quite useful at dances and other activi- Council provides and involvement ties. Other successful events were Project Outreach, Council on Aging, and the Community Dinner. Over seven hundred and fifty people attended the March 19th dinner. The Student Council was also active in starting a Pep Club. While not many people were interested, the Council hoped to encourage more school spirit by having more Spirit Weeks. The “Second Annual Shecky Greene Memorial Skit Night” was also a hit. The skit night brought the Council added funds and provided an interesting break from homework. A new idea for the council, they worked closely with the Blood Mobile to start a blood drive. The council hoped to solicit sixty pints of blood from students and their goal was met. This year’s Council officers included Mayor Doreen German, Vice-Mayor Tom Hallock, Secretary Jennifer VanSyckle, and Treasurer Steve Drake. The position of Chief Justice was held by Matt Vaughn while Aimee Disser and Terry Slocum served under him. “I liked the responsibilities and duties that we held as Supreme Court Justices,” remembered Aimee Disser as her term neared the end. “I feel we had a successful year and hope next year’s Council does as well.” Front Row: Kathleen Doherty, Amy Laurent, Jeff Switzer, Gene Hahnenberg, Charlie Choi, Joe Loeschner, Bob Sloop, and Brian McQueen.

STUDENT COUNCIL — 113 Society’s activities range from honoring to orienting The Honor Society kept busy this year with different projects. On November 24, 1986, 26 new members were inducted into the National Honor Society by a formal candlelight ceremony that took place in the lecture study. Mrs. Karen Conrath was the guest speaker at the induction, and a reception in honor of the new members took place in the library afterward.

Although temperatures didn’t soar, the cheering and hugging warmed up the day or everyone. Precious time squeezed out for practicing and studping There are only two ways students achieve academic excellence — studying and cheating. Well at G.H.S. few have chosen the latter, and most students find it much more pleasing and fulfilling in the end to study. Studying is depicted in two ways — a chore or an art. Many students today have decided studying is a chore. It takes time and dedication to do it right. Today’s teens’ time is taken up by jobs, sports, and demanding social lives. A lot of the studying is done late at night or around other activities that seem to be more important. “After softball practice, I was always tired and studied later. It was a real pain when we had games that lasted late or double headers. On those occasions I usually found myself studying on the bus,” recalled Junior Missy Moore of her study habits. Other teens today view studying as an art. It takes ability and knowhow to be able to study. You must be willing to make the time and to use long term memory. When you can remember something years down the line you know you have truly learned something. Others feel no need to study. Doing homework, listening, and taking good notes are the only preparation they need. “Before a test, I an- swer other people’s questions. That’s my review. If 1 open a book and don’t study I do as well,” remarked Senior Casey Raymond. Others have a routine they follow. Junior Todd Bitner finds it easier to study if he’s accompanied by his girlfriend, Stephanie Korson, around 6 p.m. While studying they listen to mellow pop music and sip iced tea, and eat bake potatoes. Practice and preparation can be rough. It seems to depend on the person themselves how they study. Whether it’s five minutes before a major test or not at all, students know the method that works best for them. Although the corner of the vocational wing is dark. Miss Jodi Dewey's Art Classes often preferred drawing in the hall. One of six daily Study Halls is supervised by Mr. Larry Taylor, Social Studies teacher.

PRACTICE PREPARATION — 117 In costume for Halloween, Doreen German and Matt Vaugn await the unveiling of their mystery guests; their mothers. The end of a hard day is marked by the long awaited ring o the bell, when the students are finally released. Everybody’s Business FRIENDS SHARE In order to survive high-school, everyone needs friends to share the good times, the bad times, and everything in between spending approximately 180 days with people at G.H.S., there are numerous opportunities for meaningful friendships to be built. Friends put up with our complaints over a hard test or a boring subject and also share our excitement over earning a good grade. Within this vast mixture of personalities abid best friends, enemies, and sweethearts. “It’s exciting to be able to go to college and meet new friends, but it’s really hard to leave friends and the security of high-school behind,” stated senior Jody Waid. Friends are the most memorable and important part of high-school. The people we are close to are what we’ll remember when we’re gone. Friends make high-school bearable. Gossip, laughter, and noise fill the halls continually as G.H.S. students — friends and familiar faces — share “Everybody’s Business.” Uninterested in Senior Government during the last few minutes of class, Cliff Meyers and Scott Lincoln socialize. Laura Pentecost and Chad Thompson demonstrate just one of the joys of being a sophomore — taking part in sophomore initiation at the first pep assembly of the year.

Being a Sophomore, the “little kid” in the high school, isn’t always easy. Some of the common fears expressed when coming up to the high school are natural, but others are only imaginary. A quite common fear was that the ending of initiation was only a rumor. Even though GHS really did end this practice, many Sophomores were afraid that they’d get initiated anyway. None did, but that didn’t stop the anticipation. Another anxiety felt often by several Sophomores was that they might get lost. This is understandable because being separated by grades in the Middle School is very different from the high school. The possibility of being picked on by upperclassmen was a nagging threat to some Sophomores, but once they got used to the new school, the teasing decreased. As many found out, there were many good points to being a sophomore, as well, some physical and others mental. Some Sophomores anticipated the open campus at One of the early year exciting moments for Sophomores is participating in the Homecoming festivities. Candi Shrader and Sean Muiiendore were elected representatives. lunch time, so they could walk or drive to local stores and restaurants, rather than just eating at the school. Some students were glad to see Ala Carte as a lunch time option, instead of the three Middle School choices, which were: eat the school’s lunch, bring a sack lunch, or don’t eat! Academically strong Sophomores were glad to see a wider variety of choices in their classes. And lastly, other Sophomores liked the mixture of grades at the high school. This way, they could get to know upperclassmen, rather than have only friends from their own grade. Even though the move to the high school was a trial, most Sophomores found out that it wasn’t so bad after all.

An example of this would be Greg Tobey’s illustrations featured in the survey section of this yearbook. But there is one artist who is recognized outside the walls of GHS. Rob O'Neil has been paid for several of his art pieces, including one in the window in of Sun’s Comics and Baseball Cards located in the downtown Greenville area. Rob O’Neil is a self taught artist, “I have to be sketching something all the time if I didn’t I think I’d go nuts!” He continued, “I use to take a pencil and a pad of paper to the park. 1 would sit there looking for objects and lines to draw.” Rob O’Neil plans on attending Kendall School of Arts and Design where he will major in Commercial Art. Every artist has a style or a favorite medium that they enjoy working with. Even though Rob is versatile in his style he considers himself a realist who perfers to work with pen and ink and charcoal. Rob commented., I never throw any thing away, I save it and look for ways to improve it... it has to be exactly the way I want it!” Working on a drawing at a drafting table is enjoyable for Greg Tobey. He plans on continuing art studies through high school and college then pursue a career goals in art. 122 — SOPHOMORES Hamilton — Mullendore Jeremy Jensen Steve Jessop Charlene Johnson Corey Johnson Kim Johnson Tory Johnson Chet Johnston David Johnston Dean Jones Rob Jorden Ann Junglas Carrie Jury Dorothy Kellogg Bill Kenney Dennis King Melissa King Mike King Scott Kivela Cindy Klepper Joseph Kohn Tony Koser Robin Kraai Jamie Kutzli Mark Lafayette Sanya LaFond TYacy LaFond Steve Lake William Laurencelle Barry Laux Jerry Lebeck Bart Lillie Brad Lillie Bob Lindeman Erick Linebough Tony Linton Kelli Lipp Joe Loeschner Glen London Bob Loper Roberta Loper Maris Lothian Chris Malik David Marlin Karen Maule Shelli McLoud Bruce McPherson Brian McQueen TYevor Merren Roberta Michael Adam Miller John Miller TYicia Moffatt Scott Morel Julie Morin Greg Morrow Paul Mullen Sean Mullendore Shiela Neitzel Dawn Nelson Michael Nichols Kerry Nielsen Pressy Nieto Dan Nolf Rob O’Neil SOPHOMORES — 123 Sophomores Dennis Orr Don Orr Marty Osterholzer Kerin Paden Chris Paepke Pam Painter Brooke Parker Dawn Parrish Laura Pentecost Rod Pentoney Brian Petersen Kim Petersen Michell Petersen Cory Petross DuWayne Platt Matt Ranney TYisha Rentsman Chris Reynolds Becky Richards Shelly Robinson Erlinda Rogan Tracey Rood Mirian Rose Betty Ross Todd Ross Donald Rule Tina Rupert Sean Russell John Sabin Shawna Sage Bill Saunders Gretchen Schmiedicke Dave Schnepp Pam Schnepp Polly Schuler Bob Schuster Candi Shrader Stacey Simmons Barbara Skinner Andy Skiver Lisa Skiver Deeter Sloan Bob Solomon Lisle Sorensen Steve Sorenson Chad Sowerby Teri Stein Jennifer Stoll Jenny Sullivan Scott Swindell Mike Swoveland Star Tasker Amy Taylor Bobbi Thomas Jenny Thomas Juli Thomas Chad Thomson Jenny Thorlund Jeremy Tiffany Eric Titus Greg Tobey Billie Jo Town Leonard Towne Kelli Tran 124 — SOPHOMORES Schnepp — Zandi James Valenta Jamie VanAIstine Toby Vansyckle Todd Van Syckle Jeff Vanderroer Serena Vertz Chad Vos Karri Waldorf Kristine Wall Shayne Ward Jarrod Warner Cathy Wellman Amy Wheeler Janelle Wheelock Becky White Jeff Wiesen Kimberley Williams Michon Wilson Melvin Winright Barb Witzel Kim Wolverton Michael Youn Bill Young Tony Zandi ncouragement for all Sophomore Marty Osterholzer finds a new school a challenge but one of many that he has successfully dealt with.

Pushups were part of a physical conditioning unit. from a rough Detroit school where he was a minority in more ways than one. Not only was he one of the few Caucasians, but he was also a minority because of his handicap. Born with Cerebral Palsy, Marty has had several surgeries which have enabled him to walk. He has come a long way, but his achievements wouldn’t have been possible without his parents encouragement and patience. His father has been the greatest influence in Marty’s life, because he was always there encouraging Marty to go one step further and to keep setting goals. Following his father’s example Marty has been an encouragement for all. Manager of the J.V. football team this season, Marty was always there cheering on the Jackets even in time of defeat. Marty was also planning on managing the baseball team this season. By doing this he is earning his varsity letter. Marty’s favorite sport is bowling because “It is one sport I can participate in.” Marty is on a local league and has an average of 180. Like most sophomores, Marty has already set goals for the future. After high school he would like to attend the University of Michigan to major in psychology. He would like to work as a family counselor. Marty feels he would be good as a psychologist because he has been through a lot of experiences and circumstances that others can benefit from. Marty is very open and makes friends very easily. He likes to be there for friends whenever they need someone to talk to and listen. When Marty was asked why he wanted to work with family counseling he said, “Because the family is the most important group someone can belong to.” SOPHOMORES — 125 Juniors ig adventure Pee Wee Herman fan Kevin Christensen imitates the famous dance and has performed at talent shows and in the halls. Pee Wee Herman’s Big Adventure started Kevin Christiansen’s fascination with Pee Wee Herman. He saw the movie in September of 1985 and started imitating him immediately. Kevin has been known to do the famous Pee Wee Herman dance for fellow classmates in the halls at school and participated in the talent show his sophomore year. He did a skit imitating Pee Wee Herman featuring the dog and bike from the movie and also a “little” Pee Wee Herman. Kevin has been imitating people since the age of about five. When asked what it is that he likes about the Pee Wee, Kevin answered “He’s an individual. He shall always do things different to what society says is the proper way. Also he acts like a child, he never hurts any- one.” Kevin sometimes tires of doing Pee Wee Herman but says he has to remember how far he has brought him. Pee Wee has given Kevin a lot of self-confidence and a lot of fun. Kevin says he enjoys making people happy. Besides imitating Pee Wee Herman, Kevin spends his time studying and watching TV. He hopes to attend Michigan State University. Kevin has always been involved in school plays and enjoyed doing his first community play last summer. He played the character Jerry, which he created himself, in the play Young Dracula. He said he really enjoyed playing the part and people loved his character. Kevin knows people sometimes think he is a little strange but he considers it a compliment and describes himself as “unique”. Imitating Pee Wee Herman has given Kevin Christensen a lot of self-confidence and fun. His fascination began when he saw the movie in September, 1985.

Teacher’s kids. No they aren’t a sort of mutant. They have all gone through times when fellow classmates have teased them about getting good grades for the sole reason of having their parents teach at GHS. They also have been asked numerous times to get a copy of a test for special “studying” purposes. Julie Stankey when asked about her father, said, “It’s nice to have him around so I can get money whenever I need it. Plus it gives me a vehicle anytime I need one.” Darcey Schmactenberger added “Knowing teachers and teachers knowing you when you come up to the high school makes your sophomore year more enjoyable.” But on a more serious note, the majority of those interviewed pointed out that they thought there was more pressure put upon them to succeed in school than there is with other students. Dave Gowens summed it up with, “Our parents know how we did before we do, so there is some pressure, although I have always done pretty good in school.” Tanya Matched commented, “1 put the pressure on myself, but he puts a lot on me too.” Wendy Chambers, when asked about disadvantages, she replied with a half smirk, “I’ve always had a hard time in history and my dad’s a history teacner, that's tough!” When Darcey was asked about her father she said jokingly, “You can’t get away from him. Everywhere you turn, there he is!!” However, having Mom or Dad on the staff does have its advantages: as one faculty’s daughter put it, “You have a chance to hear all the ideas that are going on behind the scenes.” The most touching comment came from Darcey and Wendy for when asked for the best thing about having a father as a teacher they both said quickly, “Money and car are available”, at the same time. Although others sometimes think a staff members son or daughter may be beneficial in some respects, Tanya Matchett and others in that situation concur that there are some extra demands as a result.

The 1986 recipients of the Frank Barry Memorial Scholarships to the Colorado Outward Bound School were Allen Demorest and Aimee Disser. The Outward Bound Course consists of eight to eleven students and two in-. structors. These students form patrols. They will hike, climb, learn and live together for 16 of the 23 day excursion. “the first three days I hated it!”, said Aimee. “I kept asking myself ‘Why am I out here?’. It took a while to get used to hiking up and down mountains with a 50 lb. pack on your back. After we all got to know each other we made it fun. “The course is divided into four phases: Basic, Alpine, Solo, and Finals. In Basic you re-cieve instruction in technical and survival skills. The second phase is Alpine, an extended journey where you will apply the basic skills you just learned and develop a closeness with your patrol. Phase three is the solo. Solo is a time for you to be alone with minimum equipment in a natural setting. For many people solo was the highest point of their course. This wasn’t true for Allen, “For the first time in my life, I had three days of uninter- rupted time far away from everything. It was time to reflect on where I’d been, and where I was going. It was kind of scary!” Finals is the last phase of the course, when new groups are formed and they plan an expedition. “It’s a test in team work”, commented Allen. Aimee and Allen were in the same group during finals. During the second and third day their patrol became lost. “We had to be back at base camp by the fourth day and we had fallen so far behind we thought we’d never make it back. When we finally found our instructor he told us we would have to be hiking by 4:30 the next morning; it would be a 17 mile hike through mountainous terrain. We made it, and in time for a 12 mile marathon the next morning!”, quoted Aimee Disser. Aimee and Allen both agreed that the Outward Bound program was the most difficult thing they had ever experienced. But the feeling of accomplishment and success after completing the course made it all worthwhile. Rocky Mountain beauty can be a right while climbing and surviving.

Wilterdink Tony Wood Brian Zayler Angie Ziems JUNIORS --- 131 Seniors nique job Along with making more money than other teens, John LaFond’s job is one of most unique around. Tired of flipping burgers? One of the most popular ways students have found to earn money has been holding a job at one of the many fast food restaurants in Greenville. However, Senior John LaFond found a unique job with a few luxuries as well. John works for his dad at LaFond’s consignment car and RV sales and manages the lot. He began working in the fall of 1986 and plans to continue working next year while attending Davenport college where he will take business classes and attend seminars in the legal aspect of car sales. The job takes about 40 hours per week, sometimes more. He manages to make some of the time through co-op. But the long hours and hard work evidently pay off; John earned enough money from selling cars to afford his own Camaro Iroc-Z, as many GHS students have jealously noted. Another advantage of John’s job, along with the pay, is being able to set his own hours. When asked what he liked best about the job, John replied, “I like the credit hours, the pay’s not bad, and I like being able to work with different people all the time.” Even with all these benefits, as any job, this one has its disappointments. What does John like least? “When a seemingly sure sale falls through and the car doesn’t sell.” Usually, the number of cars sold per week is one or two. However, sometimes they can sell as many as 14 in two weeks. That’s quite an accomplishment, considering it usu- ally takes a week to 10 days to close a deal. One thing this type of work can teach is patience. As John said, “It wouldn’t work to be pushy out here!” And what does the future hold for John? “I’d like to either own it or start a lot of my own.” Along with making more money than any other kid in school, John also has one of the most unique occupations for a teen-ager. Auto sales work has permitted John LaFond to purchase a new Camaro Iroc-Z, a bright red auto that John proudly displays.

From ice sailing in the winter to skiing downhill on the grass in the summer, it adds excitement to the sport. Senior Brett Wickerham and his brother Brent, were introduced to the sport of water-cross two years ago by two area participants. “After being introduced, it was only a matter of time before we got a sled of our own,” stated Brett. Water-cross involves riding high powered snowmobiles, stripped of all accessories to reduce weight, across lakes. Participants compete in three types of competition. They drag race, do time trials around pylons, and “enduros.” In “enduros”, they simply keep their sleds moving atop the water for as long as possible. Sinking a machine to the bottom of a lake may strike terror into the hearts of most motor enthusiasts. Sooner or later, everyone involved will end up pulling their sleds out of the water. “Nobody goes out and doesn’t sink, it’s like riding motocross and not crashing — it happens all the time,” commented Brett. “Turning, which is the key to water snowmobiling, is the most important aspect of making the most of ones equipment during races,” according to Brett. With the skis completely out of the water during watercross racing, riders must use their weight and strength to force the sleds through tight turns around the pylons in time-trial events. Last summer was Brett’s first year of competition. After competing in events as far away as Wolf Lake, Canada, and as near as Lincoln Lake, he was able to finish 20th in the snowmobiling on final overall professional standings. A 20th place national finish in “watercross is evidence of Brett Wickerham’s ability to power a snowmobile over open water in the summertime. 134 —SENIORS Christensen — German Chris Corner Karen Costner Melinda Creasap Monica Deiters Allen Demorest Debby Denevan Gilbert DeVries Kevin Dines Aimee Disser Jeff Dorey Susan Doty Lorri Duram Cindy Eccles Richard Ehlert Mary Ellsworth Toni Enbody Roy Ferguson Rich Fisher Ted Foote Callie Foster Melissa Foster Scott Fraser Chris Fuhrman Steve Garner Doreen German SENIORS — 135 Seniors Leigh Glazer Ken Goodemoot TVoy Gough John Granzo Lisa Greenhoe Chad Haight Tony Haines Tom Hallock Matt Haney TVever Harkness Mike Harmer Karolee Hazlewood Bob Heaton Lisa Hedger Diana Hernandez Denise Hickey Todd Higgins Linda Hinton Lisa Hinton Floyd Holmden Kendra Hopkins Kevin Hopkins Lorenda Huey Sidsel Huge-Jensen Jim Jarvela 136 — SENIORS Glazer — Knipp asy Rider Horses have been a serious, almost life-long business for Senior Julie Sprague. Spare time . . . not too many seniors have any. Julie Sprague is no different from the rest, except that she spends all her extra time with horses. Julie was born into a family where horses are a part of life, and therefore learned to ride at the age of three. When she was four she became the proud owner of Miss Candy Bar, a Shetland Pony mare. Julie was only nine when she started training horses. The first one she trained was a white pony. Although her mother helped her a lot, Julie says “most of it was just instinct . Since then, she has trained several of her own horses and ponies that she rides at horse shows. Julie says that she started training horses for other people about three years ago. Since each person has their own style of riding, Julie prefers to train her own horses. Julie has also been a frequent competitor in several horse shows, since her first 4-H shows when she was seven. She places in most of these shows, where she exhibits her horses and ponies in various Western-style classes. Julie wants to go to college to study Veterinary Technology, so she can perform surgery on large animals. She isn’t exactly sure where she’ll attend classes but one thing is for certain: Julie is going to be around horses.

Making it through high school is easier for most seniors if they have the support of brothers and sisters. Compatibility, like-ability, and age are factors in sibling support. Violet Beilfuss enjoys being the oldest of three girls. Her sisters, Carla and Julie, contribute to her freedom. She also has an older brother, Carl. Five years separate Violet and her youngest sister, Julie. She asks me for advice a lot and I try to help her all I can.” Closer to her own age, Violet and sophomore Carla share a friendly relationship. Whether it’s cruising the streets together or sharing friends, they find positive rewards to their friendship. Heather Jensen shares many of the same views. Also the oldest of three girls, she finds other rewards in the relationship with her sisters. Seventh grader, Amber, being the youngest, is excluded from many of Heather’s activities. She finds it reassuring if both sisters are prohibited from herbedroom. A freshman cheerleader, Shannon relates more easily to Heather. Taking Shannon along when she’s out with friends is common for her. Though they don’t discuss personal problems, the sisters relate well. Heather’s parents are more lenient with her than with her sisters. “My parents experimented with me so I wasn’t able to do as much at their ages as they can.” Viola agrees, 1 love being the youngest but I can’t get away with what he did. He used up all the excuses.” 138 —SENIORS Seniors Mike Madlener Jeff Makowski Jolana Manino Danita Mathew Roy Matthews Judy Maule TVudi McCoy Carrie McKinnon Judy McLain Greg Merren Ron Monks Donna Morgan Jennifer Morin Meg Mullendore Cliff Myers Mark Nelson Joe Newland Julie Nielsen Cliff Niles Scott Nisonger Natalia Nogueira Doug Norman Mark Nosicka Heather Ostrowski Verena Peixito SENIORS —139 Seniors Dan Peters Bill Petersen Ed Pinckney Destry Powers Jennifer Powers Jamie Quast Casey Raymond Nora Reyes Angie Richards Rachelle Riedel Shannon Riessen Tammy Riley Robin Rittenberry Kim Rittersdorf Melani Rittersdorf Brenda Rose Chris Rule Gordon Rule Christine Russell Jim Ryers Steve Sage Tom Salisbury Andy Samann Norma Sanchez Laura Sanders 140 — SENIORS Peters — Stauffer Sieve Schofield Becky Schnepp Mary Sheldon Tina Shepard Shawn Shindorf Tom Shrader Tammy Salowski Brad Skinner Cindy Skinner Connie Skinner Greta Snyder Cassie Spohn Julie Sprague Julie Stankey Brad Stauffer nother planet Seven exchange students from different parts share similar fears and anxieties. of the world “It’s like you are on another planet with a different orbita-tion. You don’t understand, you’re confused and you want to go back.” This is how Diana Hernandez describes her first day at GHS. Diana is just one of the seven exchange students attending GHS this year. The other exchange students remembered that they had similar exper- iences. “The first day of school was scary. I thought everyone would laugh at me”, commented Sidsel Hugge-Jensen. Throughout the school year students at GHS had the opportunity to experience and learn a little bit more about the six countries (Denmark. Finland, Brazil, Chile, France, and Spain) represented by the seven exchange students. “I wanted to see for myself what the United States was like. I had heard all kinds of stories . . . my picture of the United States has changed a lot”. Marianne Koljonen admitted. Being away from your home and missing your family seemed to be the hardest experience to deal with for most of the exchange students. It’s the smells, sights, sounds, and many other things that you had never thought about before that made your home and family special”, explained Sidsel Huge-Jensen. When asked what they would say to someone who was thinking about becoming an exchange student, all answered, “Go for it! It’s an experience of a life time.” SENIORS — 141 Seniors Brian Stauffer Gregg Steffes Andy Switzer Rhonda Tate Norma Thornburg Gail Tiffany Robert Tiffany I,ee Townsend Beth VhnHoose David VanWagoner John Vanaman C.

Teaching has been listed among the top few of the most challenging and high anxiety jobs for many years. One profession that should top teaching is substitute teaching. No school would be complete without their regular crew of subs. GHS has a number of regular subs. It is quite normal to see Mrs. Shirley Kabfleisch or Mr. Doug Lowke roaming the halls. They are only two of the more frequent subs. Whether it’s a shortage of jobs or a family situation that makes subs choose part-time jobs over full-time, subs still enjoy their work. Flexibility of work is only one of the advantages of subbing. Another plus to subbing, according to Mrs. Gin-ny Johnson is “being able to compare student’s activities and performances in the different classes. Most subs share the same dislikes of the profession. Student discipline seems to be a growing problem in schools, especially for subs. It has long been a student tradition to try to “pull the wool over the sub’s eyes.” They trade chairs, attempt to cheat on homework, and talk constantly. Subs develop their own methods for correcting discipline problems. Solving the problem depends on many factors. Two of the most important are the infraction itself and the mood of the sub. Many times, the matter is settled by a harsh voice or the ability to joke their way out of it. Occasionally, students find themselves facing the wrath of Mr. Deines. “I’m always on the defensive the minute I see a consistent troublemaker,” warned Mrs. Kabfleisch. When our current subs were growing up, there was much more structured discipline. The kids were also more respectful. Every year students change and so does the art of subbing. “I guess it’s a sign of the times,” sighed Mrs. Kabfleisch. Often unknown names and faces face a substitute teacher along with substitute lesson plans for that days activities. 144 — FACULTY.

Think of one of your teachers. Now think of one of your teachers in their high school, in their high school desk, in their high school frame of mind. What thoughts come to mind? Your teacher’s educational background may surprise you ... When asked where they attended high school, all but one GHS teacher replied “in Michigan.” Mr. Gowans came all the way from Kansas, finally settling in Greenville to make his career in teaching. A few comments were made on what was thought to be the biggest difference in high school (students) today. Mr. Ingles stressed a point which was mentioned by quite a few teachers: “Kids grow up too fast.” Mr. Hannah agreed when he stated, “I wish there was less emphasis on being an adult ... when the individual is only 16 years old.” It seems many teachers believe students are rushing into life too fast. Few came up with any ideas relating to the cause of this problem, though. On a more personal level, teachers were asked to describe themselves “academically, socially, and athletically.” Surprisingly enough, many claimed to be no higher than “average academically. Mr. Cardwell admits, “I was fourth out of 412 in his class, but I won’t say from which end!” Mr. Lessard also wasn’t a great scholar. He remembers struggling a lot for his grades, therefore he claims he always gives breaks to those who try the hardest in his classes. Others fit the mold of what many imagine teachers were like in high school — high achievers. Mr. Stankey fell into the top ten as a senior, while Mr. Seaver was in the top six percent of his class, admitting that he rarely took a book home. Mr. De-Kuiper held an even 4.0 in high school — never taking any books home, either. This really hurt him in college, he struggled during his first year with a 2.0 until he finally learned to study. Other outstanding students included Mr. Ingles who was a member of the National Honor Society, and Mrs. Neitzel who was Salutatori-an of her class. Most teachers fell into the category of being very social, but a couple leaned towards timidness. Mr. Swanson admits being a social “misfit,” and Mr. Seaver revealed that he was once a “wallflower”. From an athletic point of view, about half were active in sports, while the other half were relatively uninvolved. Mrs. Neitzel stressed how lucky girls are to attend school in tne 80’s. As she recalled, “There weren’t any sports for girls when I went to school.” It is easy to see why Mr. Stankey chose his profession as he was voted “Best Male Athlete” in his senior class. Finally, teachers were asked to comment on what they feel is missing in schools today compared to what their school was like. Mr. Lessard remembers the “good old days” when donuts were cheap — long-iohns being ten cents and jelly rolls only costing a nickel. Mr. Swanson desperately longs for the return of his favorite fashion — bell bottoms! According to Mr. Shar-row, if high school was still like it was 20 years ago, that would mean we hadn’t progressed socially or academically. He believes there has to be change — good or bad — so each generation has a unique claim. FACULTY, STAFF — 147 Administration Administrators, Board members complete hectic year The Greenville Public School’s Board of Education began a hectic school year by taking bids on the planned multi-room addition at the high school for a sum that ended up being, after some required design modifications, an over $600,000 project. The addition was necessary to acommo-date the overflow of students in recent years at the elementary levels. The moving of the ninth grade from the Middle School to the High School permitted the fifth grades to move to the Middle School and cut down on the overcrowding problems. The move will begin in the fall of 1987. During the school year the Board also dealt with many other significant items. Longtime Board member Carolyn “Skeet” Slocum resigned in October to pursue a teaching degree from Central Michigan University. Previously Harold Deines was named to replace departing Rod Greene as As-sistant Principal at the High School. Matt Vaughn was selected by the Student Council to be the student representative on the Board of Education, and the Board’s active Communications Committee again sponsored the Community Dinner for various programs, departments and grade levels to demonstrate to community members their skills and talents. Having played in athletic competition as an independent for three years, the Board was pleased to apply for membership in the Seaway Athletic Conference and was accepted by other conference members. For Board members and administrators, one of the highlights of the year is Commencement, when the 1987 graduates were honored and presented their diplomas. One of the duties of Assistant Principal Harold Deines, as Student Council Adviser, is to swear in the newly elected officers during Honors Week. 148 — ADMINISTRATION, ' RD OF EDUCATION In one of the more significant endeavors of the year, the Board approved participation in a chemical health program. The Hazel-ton-Cork program consisted of a survey of Greenville’s 8th, 10th and 12th grade students to determine existence and use of drugs, alcohol and tobacco among Greenville students. The results “were very similar to other schools surveyed”, according to Chuck Sandro, Athletic Director, who has been named to direct the program involving a system of school officials, faculty and student leaders to “reverse peer pressure and make kids feel comfortable making good decisions.” Parents and clergy will also be involved in the program as well as coaches. Board of Education High School Principal Thomas Matchett addresses the audience during the 1987 Commencement on June 7 in the High School gymnasium. Randy Brunner, Board of Education member hands out diplomas during the June 7th ceremonies.

United Memorial Hospital was only one of the places that gave students experience with the co-op program.

Greenville and the school community both share some of those characteristics. Information is passed on in many ways and forms. Wanting to know and be aware of what is going on around them is a trait GHS students can be proud of. The school year of 1986-87 is one that is memorable and those memories were shared also. Whether it be an exciting sports performance, or test results, or social updates, things both important and interesting often become Everybody’s Business. 182 Jerry Mann (11) Maple Valley Tavern Bryan Marlin (11) 85 David Marlin (10) 81 Frank Marlin (10) Slates Martin 36. 37 Mr. William Martin 145 Gina Martina (11) 70 Heather Martz (10) Tanya Matchett (11) 34. 35. 61. 81. 108. 115 Mr. Thomas Matchett 145 Math 76. 77 Danita Mathew (12) Paula Matthews (12) Roy Matthews (12) Cristy Maule (11) Karen Maule (10) Kirk Maxon (11)8. 36. 37. 45. 108 MC Auto Parts 159 TYacy McCain (11) Trudi McCoy (12) McDonald’s Bill McIntyre (11) 64. 65 Mr. Duane McIntyre 146 Julie McElhaney (11) 60. 76 Judy McClain (12) 92 Ricnard McLaughlin (10) Shelli McLoud (10) Robert McMullen (11) Bruce McPherson (10) Brian McQueen (10)81. 113 Kirk Medlar (11) Mark Melton (11) 36. 37. 108 Greg Merren (12) TYevor Merren (10) Merri-Mill Motels Jerri Merritt (11) Tom Meyer (11) 32. 45. 51. 108 Katie Meyers (11) 28. 51 Roberta Michael (10) 81 Mrs. Sue Mier 146 Adam Miller (10) John Miller (10) Jon Miller (11) Vance Miller (12) Mark Moehring (11) Rob Moehring (11) Trician Moffatt (10) Mr. Richard Moll 146 Beth Monks (11) Ronald Monks (12) Melissa Moore (11) 54. 92 Scott Morel (10) Karin Morey (12) 33. 108, 109 Donna Morgan (12) Jennifer Morin (12) Julie Morin (10) 42. 81 Greg Morrow (10) Jeff Mount (11) 28. 45. 57. 108. 115 Paul Mullen (10) Meg Mullendore (12) 34, 35. 54. 108. 113. 115 Sean Mullendore (10)8. 51. 66. 76 Nancy Mullholand (11) 81. 115 Mrs. Diane Muns 11. 146 Clifford Myers (12) 70. 115, 117. 119 Everybody in the N’s Os Joseph Naimo (11) Mrs. Jeanne Neff 146 Mrs. janet Neitzel 11. 146 Shiela Neitzel (10) 82 Dawn Nelson (10) Eric Nelson 28 Erie Nelson (9) 28 Mark Nelson (12) 28 Scott Nelson (11) Joe Newland 73 Jason Nichols (11) 15. 82. 85 Michael Nichols (10) Julie Ann Nielsen (12) 25 Kerry Nielsen (10) 34. 46. 47. 58. 108. 113. 115 Eduardo Nieto (11) 57 Pressy Nieto (10) 36. 57. 108 Clifford Niles (12) Scott Nisonger (12) 28. 48 Mr. Barry Nobles 78, 146 Natalia Nogueira (12) 34. 35. 58. 82. 108 Danny Lee Nolf (10) Douglas Norman (12) Toda Norman (9) 59 Mark Nozicka (12) 32 Mark Oberlin (11) 97 O’Connor’s 160 John O'Donald.

Child Development. Everybody’s Business News by any definition amounts to reporting of things either important or interesting. Those things were reported by individuals, groups, the PA announcements, the local newspaper and other sources. Those things also are reported here between these covers, a historic report of the interesting or important events and activities of the school year. Some coverage will capture things you were already aware of; but the memory will now be captured permanently. Other things will hopefully he new to you. It is the job of a yearbook to make those things Everybody’s Business. We hope we have done that job for you. Welcome to Everybody’s Business.
