Hope’s Heritage Makes History Hope, Indiana's 150th birthday celebration started with a vesper service on June 29, 1980 and went through July 5, ending with the final showing of the pageant Through Heritage Our Hope.” Each day of the celebration was set aside to commerate an aspect of Hope's heritage. On Women's Day, the feature was a program starring Beverly Nye of the Bob Braun Show. Old time clothing was also judged during this day. On Youth Day, David Burton, Shawn Thayer, Jeff Gearhart, Troy Trimpe and Jeff Smith were Keystone Kops. Their duties included checking for appropriate buttons which gave men the right to shave and women the right to wear makeup. Anyone not wearing the buttons was dunked in a water trough or hit with a shaving cream pie before being thrown into jail. The fourth of July was Homecoming. A picnic in the town square with then Governor Otis Bowen as special guest was the attraction of the day. Senior Linda Anderson commented, The most spectacular day of the celebration was the fifth of July with the fireworks and grand finale.” Darla Everroad found the pageant to be her favorite part of the week. No matter what your favorite activity was, the entire celebration was an event which will go down in Hope's history books, concluded David Golden. Sesquicentennial 25

Ideal Setting Hauser's 1981 Jr.-Sr. Prom was held at the Commons on May 9 at 8:00 p.m. Other than a rainstorm which ruined the work many people had put in by washing their cars, the prom went smoothly, said Shelly Kanouse. Silver stars and balloons hung all over the Commons to help accent the well carried out theme “Keep On Loving You. After the crowning of King Scott Maley and Queen Michelle Gommel, the band, Monarch, played the theme song for the king and queen's dance with their court. A red banner trimmed in silver tinsel hung behind the band to enhance the atmosphere. The colors of the prom were red and silver; I think the colors along with the theme made an ideal setting, Lori Hart commented. The theme of the after-prom, Las Vegas, was also carried out well. The traditional games were played in the gym, only there was a difference. “One hundred dollar bills were used instead of tickets. When enough money was raised, students could exchange their winnings for prizes which included card decks used only once in Las Vegas casinos. The food, music and atmosphere combined to make this a memorable evening, stated Teresa Klann. Junior Mark Sneed attempts to ring the saddle horn to gain more $100 bills to buy some prizes. Members of the prom court are: First runners-up Shari Beck and Bryan Finke, Queen Michelle Gommel and King Scott Maley, third runners-up Joe Whittington and Laura Wasson and second runners-up Carolyn Jackson and Ben Miller. 26 Prom
