Grove City Area High School - Pine Knot Yearbook (Grove City, PA)

Text from Pages 1 - 184 of the 1987 volume:

6u|uedQ Restructuring proves acutely I ntrospective The Pine Knot has long been a tradition at Grove City High School and so has the format of the book. But now, the 1986-87 Pine Knot Staff is branching into new and dynamic forms in this, the latest edition of the Pine Knot. This new format reads very much like a magazine, which makes it much easier and more enjoyable to leaf through, instead of the traditional format. Each of the four sections are divided according to season; Summer; Autumn; Winter; and Spring; making it much easier to locate an event or subject. The idea behind this change is just that, a change for the better to make this the best book ever produced by a Pine Knot Staff. We sincerely hope that this book captures the spirit of the 1986-87 school year. When you look back five, ten, fifteen, or twenty years from now, may your thoughts be turned to these wonderful days at G.C.H.S!! As rhe 1986-87 school year slipped away, each one remembered rheir special momenrs ond special feelings. For some ir may hove been o year ro open doors ond experience independence, while for orhers o year ro cling ro rhose rhings familiar and secure Feelings may hove been of victory, exaremenr, ond joy, or perhaps of loss, sragnarion, and sadness. Wharever our memories, someday we will look bock and realize rhe imporronce of rhe 1986-87 school year. And if norh-ing else, we will know whar was experienced - connor be repear ed, whar was losr - connor be found, and whar was gained -helped ro ger us ro where we ore rodoy. Enter The New. . . By Andy Fair Opening Exit The Old? Opening The end of Hot Weather means school The doors opened at 7:45 A.M. that September third morning and Nine-Hundred souls filled with new hope, great anticipation and much apprehension entered to start the new school year. After playing and enjoying the softness and easiness of summer, brains once again had to become active and enter autumn. Freshmen did not know what to expect, Sophomores were enthralled with the thoughts of new beginnings, Juniors seemed happy to open this new chapter in their young lives and Seniors thought of those past years and the new experience of college and life facing them. This year became a progressive and relentlessly renewing year, which seemed to go so very quickly. It was a year of joy; a year truly to remember forever. — Opening Enjoying Halloween festivities in the . Fall The Apprentice The seasons have rotated again . . . It is barren once more. A silence of sadness. Yet a wind of a thousand whispers brings Evil chill to the naked earth. Heavy air separates each confused decision. The breeze of honesty enfeebles my vulnerable Soul and paranoia instantly paralizes every falacy. Lover of lonliness and scarcity. Creator of denial and misjudgement. . . A temporary death and bitterness. Yet a strangely optimistic season. Good habit colored by wisdom and ideology Offers tranquility with vociferous breezes. A minute fragment of a distant utopia Signifying a divided strength. Steps again taken along familiar paths . . . Music of childhood play lingers in my presence. Clutching the quickly melting watch o f time ■ - -Cool metal seeping through my fingers As maturity becomes overwhelming. ■ Kara Wykoff Sophomore 4Mciemo Utupt cfirLUiJcy ZeiylcA Atant i kic41k} ufi t le fiAlnU.

The ream ended their regular season with a record of 16-4. This record placed them third in rhe District 10 AAA standings. It also qualified them as one of rhe sixteen reams to go to rhe stare tournament. This mokes them only rhe second athletic ream in rhe history of Grove City High School to advance to rhe stare level of competition. Throughout rhe season each girl learned from their mistakes and come back with that winning spirit and attitude. This was evident with Michelle Sreigerwold's performance during rhe stare semifinal gome against Corry. The Lady Eagles had previously lost a heartbreaking game ogoinsr West Middlesex, which would have led to a tie for rhe Mercer County Leogue Champion. Leaving rhe disappointment behind, they come bod strong with power spiking by Michelle Sreigerwokj to defeat Corry ond qualify for rhe stare tournament. They were a group of girls who definitely tried rheir best, and it all paid off! Coach Shawnee Denbow com menrs, “The nnoin ingredient of our success?

Ryon Elliot ond Dove Mowery. concentrated on golf the entire summer by doily practicing their gome or the Country Club. Doth Shown Sowers ond Al Montgomery teed off eoch doy in their dockyards to get os much practice time os possible. As the season progressed, teom dedicotion enabled Eagle Golfers to improve their scores dramatically. Another key factor for the team s success wos drive to excell. Although Ston Miller ond Mike Wholen hod earned positions os starters, rhey worked hard during rhe seoson to Improve their form ond scores. Contrary. Kent Dutler ond Curtis Ifft were not in the top six. but tirelessly practiced to drive ond putt more accurately to prepore themselves Just In cose Cooch Clarke needed them. At the seoson's beginning. Ron Elford wos nor one of the storting six. Dut. through sheer determi-notion, by midfoil, he wos swinging with rhe other top five storrers. Ron Elfords determination really mode o difference in the team s total performance . sold Cooch Clorke. Another determined golfer was Doug Donnels. As rhe number one ployer. his gome continually sharpened by seeking out ond practicing with stiff competition during pre-seoson work-outs. Coach Clorke stressed thot dedicorion. drive ond determination not only would produce o winning seoson (9-5). but also yielded lifetime divi-dends. Golf is o chorocrer building sport. It mo-tures one not to blome others for his own failure or success. 1987 GOLF Top Row Doug Donnels, Al Montgomery Ron Elford Second Row, Cums Ifft. Dove Mowery Shown Sowers, Mike Wholen. Kent Butler.

There Is Life After School. Going to school can be such a drag! A.L.C.’s. detentions, homework and even more homework adds up to a lot of pressure and stress. Students don't relish spending weekends doing extra homework. They want to have a good time. And although Grove City isn't anymore exciting than vanilla ice cream, students found some sort of activity—a remedy to spell relief from school. One variation is spelled: D-A-N C-E. Formal or informal, students loved to get down with loud music. Dances not only are opportunities for foottapping excitement, but they also open doors for flirtations socializing. Another form of relief is C-R-U-l-S-l-N-G to a H-A-N-GO-UT. Cruising is enjoyed by most high school students either on foot. or. if one is lucky, in a four-wheeled vehicle. And after taking a couple of revolutions around the featured Grove City Down Town Block , the Recreation Center and McDonald's serve as good refueling locations for bored cruisers looking for some new action. Other good ways of having fun in and out of school are revealed in our in-depth, school-wide, student survey. Results, which are located on pages 84-87. include the percentage of Grove City High School students who use acne cream, what teenagers do when their parents leave them an open house, and much. much, much more!

A Touch Of CLASSY The Grand Opening of the 1967 Junior-Senior Prom took to the skies ond sparked the attentions of couples as they arrived for the red carpet treatment of a night luminoted with a touch of class''. Colorful city sidewalks and buildings covered the hallways while a simple color combination of black and white proved to make the gymnasium a Classic. Exquisite murals along with city skylines set the scene for all to enjoy. Pages, dressed as maids and butlers, escorted each couple to their table, at which time they could choose to have their photograph taken or mingle amongst friends. As the atmosphere peeked with excitement, couples moved to the beat of Touch, due to the fact that the original band was unable to perform.

W olford 1 GIRLS CROSS COUNTRY MICHELE HIBBARD The Class Of Motto: Two Roads Diverged In A Wood, And I Took The One Less Traveled By, And That Has Made All The Difference. Class Colors: Royal Blue And Ivory Class Flower: Orchid As a member of the class of 87, I naturally feel that our class is superior to previously graduated classes. The class of 87 consists of the kids I’ve grown up with. How could I not be devoted to the people whom I’ve known since we were all knee high and toothless. Next to my family, my fellow classmates are the people I know best. Our class is a group of successful and ambi-tious people. Our past achievements have shown this, and I’m confident that our future will be bright. I rate the class of 1987 tops !” Through the process of working hard and helping each other, our class, the class of 1987, achieved a lot. Our magazine sale was the greatest ever at Grove City High as we exceeded our goal of making $20,200. With this money we created our prom A Night in Paris . Although turning our gym into a Paris street with cafes and an Eiffel Tower produced many strains, we did it! When our class put forth an effort, we could achieve anything! WE WERE THE BESTl r It was with great pride that I watched the class of 1987 pull together and successfully raise a record breaking amount of money through magazine sales. This enabled us to show Grove City High School students a first class Evening in Paris . Working with the various class officers, over these four years, has been a tremendous experience. Their unmatched style led our class through several traditional events with ease. I would like to commend the class of 87 on giving the word SENIOR a new dimension. Working hard for great success is how the class ol 1987 will be remembered Whether it’s academics, athe letics, extra-ciricular activi ties or finding ways to have ar exciting weekend, the Seniors succeed. Looking back there have been several accomplish ments of which we can all be proud. Magazine sales hit a re cord breaking level. An Eve ning in Paris” closed our Ju nior year in a style all our own The future holds greatness foi my classmates. I wish eacf one of you the happiness anc success you so greatly deserve!

Pam and Denise. Begging and bugging came into play when these three determined girls, persuaded the administration to release into their custody, the eagle suit. Wanting an eagle to cheer on Grove City High was their main idea. A display of devotion was shown as they pestered, till no end. striving to get what our teams so greatly deserved and needed. Spirit! Throughout the season, fans of Grove City High School sports witnessed a transformation from the dull and ordinary activities they had been used to. The mascot brought spirit and excitement to athletic events. Without the inspiration of these three fine young ladies the enthusiasm for the school would have been greatly diminished. Much thanks is give for such devoted spirit. THE tAuLt IS caught being friendly with Ken Ryan. The rules state, no affection in the halls! EAGLE MASCOTS PAM San tone.

Volant 3 8 69 Ski Club 4, FBLA 4 Student Expenses Pile High Teresa Roacl Money, money, money! How much has been spent the past four years? Most would say quite a loti It started as freshmen-, from going to dances at the Rec Center on Saturday nights, to scrounging gas money for the car and purchasing class rings as Sophomores, to finalizing Senior graduation plans. The Senior year was the most expensive. It started with the SA T tests. Every college bound student was required to add $11.50 to their list of expenses. Taking the SA T was expensive the fist time, but the cost doubled when taking it for the second. Other expenses increased the cost of graduation. Senior announcements, caps and gowns, and college applications robbed the wallets of most students. Senior pictures was an expense all its own. Most students had to apply for part time jobs to keep up with the continuing disappearance of cash. And even after graduation night, the spending went on. until the final departure for college. The Senior year will never be forgotten, especially the loss of a fortune. MUCH TIMt AND effort is spent filling out SAT registration forms. Barb Buck busily works to get her form in by the deadline. EXPENSES PILE HIGH for most students their Senior year. John McWilliams takes time to calculate his numerous costs. GRADUA TION ANNOUNCEMENTS WtRt a big ex pense in a Senior's budget.
