Dead Bugs, Cookie Monsters, and Double Dutch Bus Munchkins For every home game in the 1981- 1982, the various teams received the yells and encouragement of a Pep Rally. The Freshmen were “‘Hot;” the Sophomores “Had Their Own Kind of Spirit;” the Juniors “Have More Class;” Seniors “Did It Better.” Cheerleaders began preparing for the Fri- day pep rally at the beginning of the week; their ideas were taken from a spe- cial cheerleading camp the girls attend- ed during the summer at University of Richmond. Other ideas were kicked around until everyone liked one; Mrs. Wronowiecz, one of the sponsors, helped with the brainstorming. When there is something to be done, cheerleaders spontaneously practice after school, and there is a mandatory prac- tice every Wednesday from 6:30 until 9:00 p.m. — or until the work gets done. The results were the pie in the face for Dr. Comerford, a S.T.R.I.PRE.S. march, yell- ing contests, Gong Show, munchkins rid- ing in a Double Dutch Bus, and raising spirit for the teams. For the students, it was hard to sit in a shortened sixth pe- riod and wait for the Pep Rally. SENIOR GIRLS, Patti Needham, Colleen McBane, Su- san Smith, Robyn Ramer, Elizabeth Poole, Kristi Sim- mons, Dianne Chapman, Susie Matson, and Lisa Wells, send a message to North Stafford, and the Wol- verines listen. 10 Pep Rally JUNIOR VARSITY hockey players have to act like ‘dead bugs” whenever or wherever a varsity hockey player yells, ‘Dead Bug!” -
