Waist deep water, digging through small holes, bats above your head, blind fish at your feet, pitch darkness. What does this sound like? This describes what Kris Franklin and Gary Clark encounter while spelunking. They got started from the teaching of Gary's uncle, who has been spelunking since his youth. The reason I enjoy caving is because of the adventure, said Gary. Exploring caves was just a part of the reason for going. Along with looking at the different formations in each cave, there is the feeling of the unknown. “There is always a hope of finding something new and valuable, said Kris. “There is one cave at Duck Creek, which according to legend has stolen money hidden it it. It would be great to find something like that. Although they found adventure in these caves, there was also physical work and responsibility involved. Endurance was a must while spelunking, some of the caves are about four miles long. They take the better part of a whole day to walk, crawl, climb, and scoot through them. Responsibility is also a requirement for spelunking. Someone must be notified before going into a cave in case of complications. There is also the responsibility of contacting the owner for the use of their property. Spelunking with its adventure and responsiblity, could help for future careers. “It would be nice to continue this hobby as a summer job working with Department of Gigi Gearhart, Heather Herron and Phillip Rose walk through displays. These activities and warm weather brought a record crowd to Hope. Amy Moore sells apple butter to help raise money for the Hauser Junior High Historians. They made $ 180.00 which will be used for trips. I • 4 « I (flit 1 4 1 % i ‘ »44 i Natural Resources, said Gary. These boys have gone to many caves in the past two years and have never been seriously injured. They plan to take a group of friends, who have shown an interest, and explore 39th St. Bedford Cave which is a beginner level cave. “I enjoy spelunking very much and I want other people to enjoy it too, commented Kris. Kris Franklin and Gary Clark prepare to enter Newbern Cave. They have explored eight different caves since the summer of '84. 13

OLD AND NEW Taking time out from all the action; Jennifer Seim, Theresa Mayes, Kristy Abies, and Kim Dillingham sit along Washington Street to get a good view of the annual Heritage Day Parade. Jim Christy and Rob Elliot sell popcorn to raise money for their proposed band trip. A New Tradition Last year something new was added to the 1985 Hope Heritage Days: the first annual Hope Heritage Days Classic. The Hauser Cross Country team hosted the new event with teams from Morristown and Triton participating. The classic was the idea of Coach Butch Jordan, who put a lot of time and effort into making it successful. The in reason for this race was to gain some new exposure for the cross country team, said Coach Jordan. I hope to see this become a tradition at the Hope Heritage Days celebration. The race course consisted of 3.1 miles starting at Hauser and going through Hope. About 25 volunteers were used to block traffic while the runners passed by. The race would never have come to fruition if it weren't for the volunteers which consisted of parents and former runners, said Coach Jordan. The Hauser Cross Country teams, both varsity and reserve, defeated their opponents with the reserve scoring a perfect score of 15. Ribbons were handed out by the varsity cheerleaders on the bandstand and T-shirts were given to the top ten varsity runners. Plans for the 1986 Heritage Day Classic include expanding the field to eight teams. “I hope the crowds enjoy the races of years to come as much as they seemed to enjoy this race, ended Coach Jordan. Hauser fans onxiously await the finish of the first Heritage Day Classic. Varsity and reserve teams both won with the reserves attaining a perfect score of 15. 12

YEARBOOK Donju Taylor awards Mr. Dave Irvine a free yearbook certificate for creating and setting up the props for the convocation. David Hancher yanks seeds out of a pumpkin that was used as a decoration for the Masquerade Ball. The pumpkins were put in the library hall windows to set an eerie mood for the courtyard. Christi Selzer, Kris Clarkson, and Tammy Artis learn to draw layouts utilizing a computer program. The program did not allow for artwork so few layouts for the book could be done with the computers. Jason Wilson and Pam Hancock draw layouts for the ad section of the yearbook. They also wrote copy and captions as well as taking photographs. 14 Jetstream
