lmost anything goes P .ir-- A' N? lrish students enthusiastically participated in an entire week of zany activities, exuberant events, and outrageous outfits around the theme of The Great American Pastimes. Traditionally, the spirit lived on thru a fun and frolicsome week focusing itself upon the appeal of the unusual, Spirit Week and students competing for fun and prizes in wild and wacky events. The activities matched the per- severance: a frisbee throw, a skate- board competition, a balloon shave, a rootbeer chug-a-lug, a marshmallow stuff, a trike race, a disco contest, a pudding feed, and a Volkswagen push. The weeks activities were brought to a close when the winning team was announced at Friday's assembly. Spirit Week '78-'79 had a little added surprise incorporated within its framework . . . Almost Anything Goes. A colossal com- petition in which the Irish clubs competed in a vivacious and fun fashion. Photographs: 7. Sharon Gas! racing down the homestretch. 2.

race for spirit -1 ,nv The events were very challeng- ing . . . a wet water balloon toss, an amusing dry-land skiing, an obstacle-packed amoeba race, and a tripping eight-legged race. Scores were tallied and the win- ners were determined. The winning team consisted of Steve Wilson, Scott Evans, Lisa Evans, Debbie Chavez, Chris Omata, jeff Bissell, joe Weber, and Rhonda Russell representing Band Two. Of the S100 entry fees from A.A.C,., S75 was added to their club's treasury. Placing second was Ski Club, they received 5525. Five days and nights of excite- ment, frustration, and unforgetta- ble fun made Spirit Week '78 one of the most successful ever pre- sented by the Student Council at Kennedy. Anticipation built up through the entire week until it drew to a close Friday -the night when the big rival football game against Cypress culminated the week's events. Photographs: 1.
