KINGSTON KALEIDOSCOPE Phone: (517) 683-2550 Xenolith. defined as a foreign fragment of rock'embedded in another rock and chosen as the '86 Kaleidoscope theme, reflects that 1985-86 was a unique year in history. Halley's comet passed close enough to the earth to be seen with the naked eye. an event that only occurs once every seventy- five years. It was a year that we would reach out for the stars both figuratively and literally. Sometimes our efforts met with success, sometimes with unforeseeable and unforgettable failure. But as the world has changed around us. KHS has had the stabil- ity to remain constant within the changes. On January 28. 1986. the space shuttle Challenger exploded only moments after launch, killing the six astronauts and one ci- vilian on board and sending a shockwave of horror across the nation. The world wide problem of terrorism abounded on the international airlines, causing Americans to think twice about travelling abroad. The safety of air travel was also brought into question by an unusually high number of plane crashes. Perhaps the most memorable and tragic of those was the crash of the charter flight which killed almost 250 U.S. servicemen. But the sky wasn’t the only place we met with hardships. The year was filled with natural disaster An earthquake in Mcaico and a volcanic eruption in Columbia were the two most damaging catastrophes, costing millions of dollars and thousands of lives. Fortunately, disaster and tragedy didn’t make up all the year’s headlines. In 85-86, we also witnessed some of the most inspir- ing and hope-filled moments of a lifetime. The Hollywood celebrities reached out staging the Live Aid benefit concert to fight against world hunger. Live Aid was followed by other projects like Comic Relief and Hands Across America. 1986 was also the 100th birthday of the Statue of Liberty. And. speaking of liberty, what was perhaps the year’s most inspiring story took place, in the name of liberty, across the ocean in the Philippines. Democ- racy and the will of the people toppled the dictatorship of President Ferdinand Marcos. He was overthrown by the people without bloodshed and replaced by a new president. Corazon Aquino. No one can predict whether Aquino will be able to restore her nation and remain in power in such trying and unstable times. But whatever happens, Aquino's replacement of Marcos represents a very proud moment for the Filipino peo- ple. Closer to home, we have also seen many changes right here in our own community and school system. Many have brought joy. and some have brought tears. And, although some of them may not seem important, they are the changes that actually have had the most impact on our lives because they are the closest to us. On the first day of the school year, the announcement that there would be closed campus angered many students. The stu- dent council presented a formal protest at the next board meeting, but it could not get the decision reversed. We all cheered when the boys’ basketball team won the League Championship for the second consecutive year and then went on to take the District Championship title. We experienced our greatest loss and shed our share of tears with the death of sophomore Melissa Ernst in a tragic car ac- cident. She will always live on in our hearts and memories. All in all. 85-86 was a very special and unique year at KHS. This was especially so for the seniors who ended one phase of their lives and began another. This Jjook is dedicated to all KHS graduating classes of the past, present and future and to the hope that they will continue to reach out for their own special stars and dreams.

We. the graduating class of ’86, have spent most of our lives as students. During those school years we have experienced the hope, joy, and tears that are unavoidable if we are to grow. Now it is time for this phase of life to end. The purpose of school has been accomplished. Now it is up to us to use the knowledge we have gained to pursue our dreams because graduation is just a begin- ning. Deb Moore. Becky Crittenden. Alisa Stark.

That first step up those giant bus stairs also represents the first step of the climb up the educational ladder. As juniors, we suddenly find ourselves only one step from the top, and we realize how much there is to do. The class of 1987 found itself in just that position. Every year the junior class inherits the responsibility of presenting the junior-senior prom. To meet the costs of this project, the junior class organized many fund raisers, including the traditional m m sales, can- dy-gram sales, and a computer date dance. The com- puter date dance was an original idea and a fun ex- perience for all who participated. Students filled out questionaires and were then matched up by computer to dance together for one song. Quality efforts by the juniors, along with the guid- ance from its sponsors, Mrs. Carnes and Mrs. Safranek, enabled the class of '87 to successfully present the 1986 Junior-Senior Prom. With this major project behind them, the juniors are all set to move on up to the top step and begin their senior year.

The class had a rock-a-thon and sold posters and mirrors. With some hard work and class participation, plans are to have many more fund-raisers and make a lot of money. Being the largest, the Class of 88 has many assets and dreams of becoming the next juniors and then seniors.

Freshmen Strive for More The freshman class is off to a great start in the senior high. In the past school years, it has shown that it is already a class of leaders and achievers. The greatest accomplishment has been in the area of fund-raisers. Fruit sales were the most successful sales project. As a result of its successful sales projects, the class treasury has grown steadily this year. The ambition and initiative of the freshman class has also allowed it to take a canoe trip. In addition, it has continually made its presence felt at pep assemblies and in the area of school spirit.

The Eighth Grade Unites Confident of its abilities, the eighth grade Class of ’90 was determined to demonstrate its strong desire for success by spending this year preparing for its impending transition from junior to senior high. It also learned a valuable lesson along the way. It discovered the importance of class unity, and through a solid group effort its Homecoming float fin- ished strongly in third place. What this deter- mined young class lacked in experience, it made up for in eagerness, preparing itself for what lies ahead.

Danny Wenzlaff. Jenny Moore and Steve Scott. As the junior high rookies started off the year, they found many changes and new exper- iences. They had new teachers and different classes. No longer were they the dominant force in the elementary. Instead they were at the bottom, working their way to the top of the high school ladder. Leading the seventh grade class was President Danny Wenzlaff. He was assisted by Vice-president Steve Scott. Funds were handled by Heather Nichol, and Jenny Moore was kept busy taking notes. With these leaders in charge, the seventh graders got off to a good start by earning $100 for their class. They hope to keep adding to their funds and to put them to good use in their future high school years.

You were so smart, definitely an honor roll student, college bound all the way. Your lovely smile could brighten anybody’s day. You were always happy and cheerful. With all of this, you were also so young, not given the chance to live your life. Why did they have to take you from us?

The Kingston team went ahead early and contin- ued to increase its lead until the 16th round, when it became math- ematically impossible for Akron- Fairgrove to catch up. Although the science team was the only one to win a match, the math team came close, losing in the very last round. This is Kingston's third year of participation in the game.

The hopeful promise of a league title disap- peared early after losing a hearbreaker to Peck 7-6. Not giving up the Cards came back to post an above five hundred win-loss record. The Cards’ season was highlighted by many exciting games and a few lopsided victories, the most memorable being Homecoming and their 43-0 whitewashing of North Huron. All in all, the season was a very productive one. Many players had an outstanding year and contributed to the team's success. Kicker Kale Koehler shows great style.

But the sense of accomplish- ment that one feels when crossing the finish line has kept the sport alive, even at a school as small in size as Kingston. During the past season the KHS cross country teams have known both victory and defeat. The girls’ team started the year off slowly. But as time went by it gained momentum to peak at the state finals with a third place finish. Two KHS runners, Lisa Meier and Lori Chantiny, re- ceived all-state honors, and Lisa Meier was also named to the Advertiser’s All-Area. All-Confer- ence first team in cross country. The guys had a more discouraging year. With only five runners they found themselves crippled by a lack of depth. With three of those runners being freshmen, they were also hurt by inexperi- ence. Showing off the stride that earned her a medal at every invitational and a position on the Advertiser’s All-Area Team and the All-State Team is Kingston's Lisa Meier. Preparing to pass a Cros-Lex and an A-F runner is Melissa Banowski. a fourth year senior. Learning to work with new team mates as well as the new coach, Mr. Leon Westover, presented some obstacles for the lady cagers. With only three seniors and two returning starters, the squad was relatively inexperienced. But. as the season progressed, the girls worked through these obstacles to pull together as a team. 6 wins and 14 losses constituted the final season record. Despite the losing record many individuals received recognition for their outstanding efforts. Senior team captain Deb Kasdorf, the top point-getter, also scored with the MVP a- ward and a position on the All-Conference first team. Kris Kotsch received the Cardinal award and honorable mention in the confer- ence. Julie Lis pulled down the most rebounds, and Alisa Stark added hustle. Going up strong.

NEW CHALLENGES PULL LADY CARDS TOGETHER 55 Junior Varsity Victories For the second consecutive year, the JV football team pocketed the NCTL Championship. Under the di- rection of Coach Alexander, the team averaged 30 points per game and achieved a 6-0 undefeated league record that easily put them in first place. In an attempt to gain yardage, quarterback Shane Campbell is brought down by two Deckerville linemen. Showing off a mount that helped them earn first place at the KHS Competition Day are the JV Cheerleaders. Inexperience doesn't stand a chance against determination. This was exemplified by the KHS junior varsity cheerleaders during the '85 football season. The path from the first practice to Competition Day was rocky and full of ups and downs. The squad was left without any guidance when its coach re- signed in the middle of the season. But fortunately, Kingston graduate and former cheerleader Annette O’Dell stepped in to fill the posi- tion. Lack of practice was often frustrating for the squad, but the girls worked through their prob- lems to cheer the guys on to a league championship and make a first place performance at Compe- tition Day. Aubrey Brewer is practicing hard for a coming game. 56 The Kingston defense faces off against Deckerville at the line of scrim- mage.

The buzzer rang, and the JV girls' basketball team had won their last league game of the season and added another victory to their win-loss record. Improvements made throughout the season on moves and techniques led these JV cagers to several victories. Their triumph over Peck represented an over-all winning season for these girls who finished with eleven vic- tories out of eighteen league games. Against Owen-Gage.

It all started way last summer when the Kingston squads traveled to cheerleading camp for a week and returned home with first place in the dance competition, the Congeniality Award, and lots of enthusiasm for the season to come. The cheerleaders finished out the year in the same style they began it with a first place finish at KHS Com- petition Day. The recognition they re- ceived at camp and Competition Day reflected the cheerleaders' outstand- ing efforts throughout the year.

It's time out and the varsity squad is all smiles as they take the floor to perform a cheer. 61 L E A G U E C H A M P S 62 From the line. Dave Green adds to his 103 points in the season freethrows. Starter Mark James, getting a defensive board, contributes to the Kingston upset victory. Don’t mess with the Cardinals”, was the attitude of the fans and players alike as the Kingston basketball team pounded home victory after victory in North Thumb League play. The Cards bettered last year’s 17-3 winning season by one game to pull off the League Championship for the second year in a row. Kingston rolled through districts in the same way, winning the district champion- ship on their home court. Their 21 game winning streak ended abruptly, though, when they lost the first game of regional play. For the season the Cards had an out- standing 21-3 win loss record. This is the best that Kingston has seen for many years. Therefore be it resolved that the Kings- ton Board of Education does hereby con- gratulate and give recognition to the Kings- ton Community Boys’ Varsity Basketball team members and coach for their out- standing athletic accomplishments. Senior Mike Megge takes a jump shot against a Marlette defender. Board of Education March 20, 1986 From left 10 right, Capt. Mike Megge. Dave Green, and Mark Reehl receive the League Championship trophy after winning in Caseville. Leading the Cardinals in their winning season were seniors Dave Green, Mark Reehl and Mike Megge. These three were the backbone of the team, setting the pace, both offen- sively and defensively. Center Dave Green was awarded a place on the All-State team for his outstanding achievement in. scoring and rebounding. He scored a total of 575 points and grabbed 246 rebounds. Perhaps the best guard in our league was Mark The Highpocket” Reehl. A grand total of Id steals. 320 points and 98 rebounds earned him a place in many coaches’ nightmares. Guard Mike Megge earned an hon- orable mention on the UPI All-State Team for his efforts. Mike grabbed 93 rebounds and scored 120 points. D I S T R I C T C H A M P S 63 That’s the Way the Senior Deb Cosway positions herself in hopes of serving up a Cardinal victory. Led by their new Coach. Marie Stoddard, the girls Varsity Volleyball team battled through a rough season. It could be said there was a lot of talent, but winning was another story. Though the year ended with 5 wins and II losses, much experi- ence and leadership were on hand from captains Missy Banowski and Deb Cosway. Banowski was on the First Team All-Conference and elected MVP by her teammates. Junior Kim Moore was elected also by teammates to receive the Car- dinal Award. The girls not only played two games a week, but often made it a 6 day volleyball week with tournaments on Saturday. In their tournament at Caseville the girls placed third out of II schools ranging from class D to class B. This accomplishment served as a great encouragement for the team and proved their talents to many spectators. Although the team will lose three players to graduation, there'll be many returning lettermen and a very promising season.

NEW HOPE As Audra McQueen serves Chris Main. De- anna O'Dell. Chris Lis. Helen Richmond, and Mary Cherniawski gel ready for the return. The JV volleyball team ended its season with a record of 5-3. With only half of the team being return- ing starters, the season was one of strong will, determination and a lot of learning for the girls. Chris Main and Deanna O’Dell both make an attempt to bump the ball over the net. The 1985-86 JV basketball team had a great season, one of the best ever, finishing second in the NCTL with a record of 15 wins and five losses. A strong desire to play defense and team basketball were reasons for its success. Four of the five losses were decided by three or fewer points. As a team, the boys averaged 50 points per game offensively, but more importantly, they gave up only 39.5 points per game defensively. 67 VARSITY BASKETBALL (Front Row) Manager Pat Taylor.

The Varsity Baseball Team won a few and lost a few in play this year. They started out well, winning the first four games. Their winning streak didn’t con- tinue though. Through the next games they either split or lost both in close decisions. The sea- son was a learning experience for the players and coaches alike. Often, teamwork was the factor determining victory or defeat. Many players excelled, assuming responsibility for posi- tions they had not previously played. And often these players carried the team.

Oth- er strong performers were Roger Warington, Paul Moore, and Steve Jacob. Despite the lack of numbers the boys team should have nothing to complain about. Max Hauxwell shows a bit of happiness in running the 3200m run. Above: Dean Sheckles finishes hard in the 800 relay. Rights Steve Jacob leading the pack in the 400m run.

Finishing their season with a second place, behind reigning League Champion Akron- Fairgrove. Although the girls team had but only a few members, they showed strong effort at the large meets. The girls had strong performances from dis- tance people Lisa Meier, and Lori Chantiny. They also showed strength in middle distance with Kris Kotsch and Anna Peter. Overall the girls had a great season. If they would have just had the numbers they could have done a lot more. 75 VARSITY BASEBALL (Front Row) Volker Lange. Jeff Reinelt. Mark Reehl. Bob David.

Traditionally homecoming week means fun, excitement, and an op- portunity for the students to get rowdy and show their school spirit. For the faculty it means confusion, chaos, and interrupted classes. This year was no different. Competition among the classes for the most school spirit took on various forms. Each class was as- signed a hall and given a state as a decorating theme. The class who best incorporated Cardinal spirit and the characteristics of its state was the senior class. Dress-up days consisted of hill-billy. Alaska, Tex- as, California, and spirit day. The senior class was named the best- dressed for the parade. The sen- iors also won the tug-of-war contest held during lunch hour throughout the week. After school there were floats to be built. The float theme was Back to the Future.” At the pep assembly held on Friday, the most spirited were the juniors. ... but the seniors win the war. Snapping a momento of his visit to the U.S. is foreign exchange student Volker Lange, as Daryl Randall and John Gusek look on from the background. Mike Megge and Debbie Kasdorf are the '86 Homecoming king and queen. The varsity football team posted an impressive Homecoming victory by white washing North Huron 43 to 0. The victory capped off an ex- citing week. During halftime ceremonies, seniors Mike Megge and Debbie Kasdorf were named Homecoming king and queen. Rob- ert Smith and Darlene Syacsure reigned over the junior high as the prince and princess. In the float competition, first place went to the freshman class. The juniors took second and the eighth grade managed to snatch up third place. The seniors ended up in fourth fol- lowed by the seventh grade in fifth place and the sophomores in sixth. The festivities wound down with the Homecoming dance held imme- diately after the game. Music was provided by SKM. Ed Trisch does his best on the obstacle course.

They received a 1st division rating at festivals. Why are the junior band members all smiles? Because they represented our music department well at festivals by receiving a 2nd division rating. Seniors Melissa Banowski. Deb Moore. Mark Reehl. Jamie Peter. Monica Tait. Kelley Scott and (Front) Becky Crittenden pose for the last time in their concert uniforms. The Jr. and Sr. Bands worked together much more than in years past. During football season, the Jr. Band performed with the Sr. Band in a half-time show. Also, for the Spring Concert both bands split up into small ensem- bles as well as performing the usual full band numbers. By collaborating their efforts, it seems the KHS bands have found yet another way to out-do themselves. Shawn Roberson. Becky Raymond. Kim Schott, and Sherri Rieck concentrate on their performance. This smiling ensemble performed a piece called 'Swingin’ Shepherd Blues” at the Spring Concert. At the Spring Concert, these talented musicians performed a series of polka numbers. Kelly Schieweck and Pam Steele give each other last minute instructions as the other color guards listen in.

This year thirteen new members were inducted into the KHS Chapter of the National Honor Society. To be considered the stu- dents had to have a B+ grade point average. From the roster of eligible students the Faculty Selec- tion Committee chose thirteen juniors and sophomores whom they felt possessed the four qualifying traits. At the induction ceremony held May 15 the inductees were made official members. 88 Students Take a Stand The student council, under the leadership of President Michael Megge, took a more active voice in the 85-86 school year than it has in the past. When the decision to close the school campus was an- nounced at the beginning of the school year, the student council rallied behind the consensus of the student body and presented a for- mal protest at a board meeting. Al- though the board did not reverse its decision, the effort of the stu- dent council represented the in- creased input of this organization. Its efforts in many other areas gained better results. All in all, the student council did a great job of fulfilling its purpose and providing an active voice through which stu- dents could voice their opinions. 7th GRADE Lonnie Stark Rob Widger Matt Webb 8th GRADE Brady Barden Jim Green Danielle Wilcox 9th GRADE Jill Kramer Sherri Rieck Shawn Roberson 10th GRADE Gary Jaster Joe Livernois Julie Lotter llth GRADE Dave Megge—Vice pres.

Alisa Stark, Debbie Cosway and Lena Fritz are on their feet cheering the seniors on to victory over the faculty. Alisa Stark and Debbie Kasdorf seem baffled by Mike Megge. dressed as his favor- ite teacher. Seniors huddle to decide on the strategy that will help them beat the faculty. Right about the time that the win- ter blahs were setting in. and KHS students and faculty alike were start- ing to count the days and minutes un- til spring break, Snowcoming came along. For a week the Snowcoming festivities provided an escape from winter boredom. The seniors came out as winners of the class basketball competition that was held during the lunch hour throughout the week. They then went on to compete against and defeat the faculty basketball team in an upset victory. It was the first time that the seniors had won against the faculty in many years. During halftime Friday night the winners of all the week’s activities were announced. The seniors came out on top again by winning the float competition and dress-up contest. But the sophomores had the best spirit signs. Dave Green and Jamie Peter were named the Snowcoming king and queen. The prince and princess were Jim Green and Danielle Wilcox. The actual Snowcoming game end- ed in victory for the Cardinals. 80-53 over North Fluron.

The setting of the 1986 Jr.-Sr. Prom was that of the recently built Bavarian Inn Motor Lodge. Prom Night '86 began at 6:30 when the Juniors and Seniors began to arrive. At 7:00 they dined in the River Rooms. The buffet style dinner was a change from the usual served meals of past Kingston proms. After dinner, pictures were tak- en by Haebler Studios. The dancing began when Be the Night the prom theme, This Could Be the Night,” was presented by D.J. Todd Hillman. Although the dancing ended at LOO, the memories of Prom Night ’86 will last forever.
