Therpinnr. ml Stn!! d monrlmle inno ation: Thespians began the year with their annual Pool pool at Advisor Vi Watson's house. A first occurred when a completely surprised Vi won the pool and was tossed fully clothed in the pool. Said Vi of her dunk- ing, I had no idea it would be me, but it was kind of refreshingf, Senior Thespians began Christmas festivities by decorating backstage with balloons. The fun contin- ued at the Christmas party where gift exchange pre- sents were placed under the tree for Santa to hand out. Four Thespians, Tony Clark, Patti Diamond, Cindy Harmon, and Jon Maynard, visited New York during Christmas vacation. While there they saw Broadway shows, watched the ball drop in Times Square on New Years Eve, and generally explored Manhattan Island. Becoming a Thespian consisted of earning 10 points of five hours each through acting in or working on shows. The annual convention gave Thespians a chance to meet Thespians from all over the state as well as a chance to participate in workshops ranging from makeup to mime. The year ended with the Thespians Awards Banquet, where all those involved with shows were honored. Art Staff aided its members as much as it aided the school. While theatre and rally were requesting post- ers and banners, the staffers were getting practical experience in the graphic arts. According to Staffer Nancy Ebell, You learn things you wouldn't other- wise learn in a regular art class. Students learned responsibility by having deadlines, quality levels, and requests. lt gives them a real job situation, said Advisor Kris Martens. Gne of the largest jobs was the LexfVerdict mural and also a 25 foot banner for the Hilton Hotel courtesy of Art Staff. The results of the Art Staff's endeavors could be seen all around the school.
