The actual float building, while not entirely free of difficul- ties, proved to be enjoyable to all. Freshman Julie Stewart commented, When the seniors tried to bomb our float with water balloons, some of the guys were running around like mini-G.I. JoesI Held at Tina Lasater ' s house, the float building process took approximately nine hours, spread out over the two days preceeding the parade. Although the construction began late, contributions from Mr. and Mrs. Bunyak helped the work go smoothly. The dedication of the freshmen and sophomores also proved to speed construction along and, despite all the hard work, the atmosphere remained relaxed and friend- ly.

The scared feelings at the beginning of school year. The people Freshmen commented on each of these things when asked what they thought about North. When school began freshmen weren ' t sure if they could ever have a good time at North. The campus was so big it was confusing, commented Kathleen Hansen. I was really nervous, Kim Noon added. There were so many people! As freshmen adjusted to North, they began to find things they liked. The freedom ' s fantastic! commented Stacey Richman. We could never go out to lunch in junior high, or arrange our own schedule either, added Emily Elders. As the school year wore on, freshmen noticed another thing that appealed to them - the people! Said Hansen of the older kids, They ' re a lot of fun! They ' re more sure of themselves, added Elders, and they have their own cars, too! Richman seemed to sum up the freshmen ' s thoughts when she said, It ' s an exciting experience! • • Concentrating on the activities at hand, Ellen Strzelewicz, My Hanh Tran. and Duane Bnckel watch as Transylvania Day ' s lunchtime activities untold.
