We just go to school.” On what seemed like just any oth¬ er Thursday, students displayed little yellow signs saying, “Fm going.” It was time for the annual Campus Life Burger Bash at Gosnold’s Flope Park. Over 250 students from area high schools gathered for an afternoon of games and food. They consumed over 600 McDonald’s hamburgers delivered by fire truck. “The Burger Bash was really a great time for everyone involved. The best part was watching my friends play games in the grass like kindergart- ners,” said junior Stephanie Ingram. “The month ended in a flurry of signing yearbooks as the 1986 Toma¬ hawk finally arrived. “It was great to finally get the yearbook,” said senior Patti Worth. “It brought back so many good memories of last year. I hope this year will be as much fun.” September

Spirit reigns Homecoming game high point of month ctober was a month to “get into school spirit,” “to go to some great football games,” “to really enjoy Homecoming, Spirit Week, and all the fun,” “to order class rings,” “to go to Charlottesville,” and “to watch the leaves turn into autumn co¬ lors.” October meant Homecoming and all the attendant activities. First, Spirit Week offered students oppor tunities to dress as their favorite character, sup¬ port their favorite college, or reminisce on ’50’s Day. The climax of the week was the pep rally Friday, the parade at 5:30 p.m., and the game against War¬ wick Friday night. “I felt Spirit Week was a week to go all out and have fun. I was upset that many people did not participate. I think it was a lack of communication and the students did not know about it. Next time, they should publicize it more,” complained junior Stephanie Ingram. Despite the 12-0 loss to Warwick, Homecoming gave classes and clubs a chance to come together and express school spirit. Seniors swept the compe¬ tition, winning the“Most Participation during Spirit Week,” the Spirit Jug at the pep rally, and First Place in the float competition. “It was fun being in the Home¬ coming Parade, but Homecoming would have been better if we had won the game,” said junior Beth Wither¬ spoon. Workshops and field trips ranked high on the list of activities for October. Journalism students attended two workshops, one at Great Bridge High School in Chesapeake, Virginia, Octo¬ ber 4, and the annual Virginia High School League Publications Workshop on the campus of the University of Vir¬ ginia in Charlottesville, October 25 continued on page 19 ' 7 CROWN THEE.J” Kim Chlaramida crowns the 1986 Homecoming Queen, Yvette Cor¬ mier during the annual halftime show at the Homecoming game.
