t •» • • It was fun seeing your friends all dressed up. % — Jewel Ting 12th Grade It was way better than last year ' s. A lot more people were there ! so you saw more of your friends. It was re- ally romantic, too. — Wyndie Mohn 12th Grade 11 This Time A Lifetime of Memories Complete with ele- gant dining, limou- sines and formal attire, the Junior-Senior Prom allowed students to get away and live a night of luxury. The prom, presented by the junior class, was planned months in advance. Tickets cost $55 with an ASB card and $59 without one. Upon arriving at the plush Newport Shera- ton on Saturday, April 15, couples danced to the music of Mixed Im- ages, stood in the long lines for pictures, and sampled the delicious hors doeuvres. Later in the night the Prom King and Queen were crowned. Time takes things, gives things, and creates memories for lifetimes. If time is what we make it, then the most special times are those which we cherish forever. The Junior-Senior Prom was one unforgettable moment which would last forever — it was one time which would last All This Time. A Unique dresses and sequins were the in look this year. Dancing the night away are Phil Thurman, Wyndie Mohn, Rick Wood- ward, and Kim Smis- sen. ▲ ▲ Wearing the Prorr King crown, Phi ' Thurman reigned pvei the dance.

The most exciting and fun-filled five days of Kennedy ' s com- memorative year oc- curred during the week of March 13-17. Irish Week symbolized a time for all students to come together in school spirit, have fun, and help others. Com- bining it with the Unit- ed Way Fund Drive, Dr. Stephenson added an interesting angle: He would have his head shaved if the stu- dent body raised at least $1,989! Monday was PJ-D) Day. Students wore their jammies, and a DJ entertained at lunch as a Pie-in-the-Face contest thrilled specta- tors. Tuesday, Western Day, saw Irish cowboys and cowgirls moseying around campus, and some attempted the Hi- Ho Horsey Hop at lunch. Surfers ruled on Thursday, which was dubbed Dude . . . I ' ts Beach Bummin ' Day! The pool deck was crammed with stu- dents in sunglasses, vi- sors, tank-tops, and shorts watching the Raft Relay. Green and Gold Day ended the festive week on Friday, and a new event cli- £ maxed the week — an Irish Karnival. Many clubs and activities sponsored booths to sell food or lure stu- dents to try their luck and skill at various games. The climax of the Karnival, as well as the entire week and the United Way Fund Drive, had to be the moment when Ms. Swindell carefully shaved off Dr. Ste- phenson ' s hair, for the proud Irish had raised a total of $3,305.52! 22 rish W ek w ▲▲ Faced by the possibility of a dip in a pit of muddy water, the cheer- leaders Patty Borem, Lisa Haxton, Shelly Guitierrez and Mitzi Ujiie are the first to go in when they lose to drill team. ▲ By the end of Irish Week, the Irish had raised over $3000 for the United Way Fund — more than twice as much as the total for the previous year.
