Jr. Sr. Prom and Banquet The 1979 annual Junior-Senior Banquet was held in the banquet room of Oney's Restaurant and the men's restroom, at 7:00 p.m. on April 28th. In keeping with tradition, the dinner was sponsored by the Nehalem Valley Community Club. Mr. Don Bradley, senior class advisor, sang several songs, accompanying himself on the guitar. One of the two songs he sang was a John Denver song, ''The Eagle and the Hawk,'' from which the words of the Senior class motto were taken. Complimentary and encouraging words were passed along to each of the Seniors by Junior class advisor, Mr. Jim Wilkin. The banquet was well attended by Juniors and Seniors, as well as faculty. Those present were: Seniors Mark Jackson, Betsy Davis, Janice Reeher, and Tana Hill; Juniors Connie Rinkes, Pat Potts, Paul Burnett, Skip Jensen, Scott Frazier, Marcy Layman, and Debbi Wood; faculty members Mr. Jim Wilkin, Mr. Steve Johnson, Mrs. Dennis Wilcoxen, Mr. Don Bradley, Miss Alice Crino, and their escorts; Superintendant Bernard Adamson and School Board Chairman Herb Rodgers and their wives; and the Nehalem Valley Community Club President Loretta Hale and her husband. ''Come Sail Away'' was the theme for the 1979 Junior-Senior Prom. The juniors started decorating 28 days before the big night in order to be ready in time. In keeping with the nauticall theme, sand candles, fish nets, treasure chests, sand castles, a waterfall, and a sailboat decorated the community hall. The six- piece band, ''Dreamer,' ' supplied the music. Because the prom is one of the most special occasions of the year, ''formal'' summarizes the dress and atmosphere for this year's prom. Skip Jensen and Pat Potts added to the formality by wearing tuxedos. Miss Crino announced King and Queen, Mark Jackson and Tana Hill as prom chairman, Marcy Layman crowned Queen Tana, presenting her with a bouquet of flowers from the Community Club. To finish off the evening of festivity, members of the Junior and Senior class celebrated with a breakfast in Astoria, stretching the evening out as long as possible.

Mini Courses In an attempt to offer classes not available in the regular curriculum the P.T.O. came up with the idea of having mini courses. The student council approved the idea and May 16, 17, and 18th were the dates set. One of the truly unique aspects of the experimental program was that its development was a combined imput of both students and faculty. Faculty and members of the community taught the classes. A wide variety of courses were offered, including archery, cake decorating, trapping, gun safty, tennis, bike touring, pottery, football, cooking for non-home ec., welding, disco dancing, golf, chorus and others. 1-Mr. Lonergan shows his archery form while Neil Vandehey looks on. 2-Ward Vandehey gives the camera the eye as he slices into the pizza. 10 Mini courses
