Homecoming Weeks Ignite Spirit spirit weeks for football and bas- ketball gave everyone a chance to participate. Students and staff dressed up differently each day to show their spirit for ISD. Suspend- ers, Coca-Cola, and Black and Or- ange days were most popular. Two nights before football home- coming, the Student Council spon- sored a huge bonfire to inspire school spirit. Cheerleaders chanted and players ranted and fans partici- pated in different games to show their school spirit. Despite rainy weather, a large crowd watched ISD beat Fairfield, 22-20, after an exciting game. For the first time in history ISD crowned two homecoming queens. Susan Ellis and Rachele Whiteley reigned over their court consisting of Patti Cochran, Jackie Cox, Buffie Jones, Peggy Steinberger, and Gina Trowbridge.

Thirty seniors and four chaper- ones went to Florida for the annual spring vacation trip. They stayed in an EconoLodge motel in Tampa for one week. After four years of hard work to earn enough money, they all enjoyed the wonderful trip together. They left Indianapolis on Friday afternoon, drove all night, and finally arrived in Tampa late Saturday af- ternoon. Jeff Slater, Chris Walters, Jim Frenchik, and Ann Reifel shared the driving of the school van and new ISD bus. It rained on Sunday so they went to a neat shopping mall all day. At 6:00 a.m., Monday, the entire group rode the Sea Escape bus to Tampa Bay for an all day cruise. Fishing, watching movies, playing arcade games and bingo, dancing, and watching ID become the NCAA champions filled the day. Walt Disney World had fantastic rides, delicious food, and magnifi- cent performers. Wednesday they walked from the motel to African style Busch Gar- dens. They went to Clearwater Beach the final two days and got either burned or tanned! On Saturday they departed un- willingly from Florida at 10:30 a.m. and got to ISD the next day at noon. It was a fun-filled and rewarding va- cation for the seniors! Excited Seniors Take Ocean Cruise 10 Robert Ware enjoys the sun, the sand, and the surf ot Clearwater Beach.
