JUNIOR CLASS Junior concessions, bake sales, and picking corn kept the junior class busy this year, preparing for the Ju- nior-Senior Prom. Many of us were active in sports, chorus, band, FFA, and FHA. But we still found time to participate in money-raising pro- jects. We the class of 1982 reflect upon “The Way We Were”, and look forward to our senior year. Craig Anderson, Lisa Anderson, Holly Casper. Alan Cass, David Christensen, Marily Elling- son.

Mark Swenson Todd Waldow As we entered the halls last August, we realized that our time at LPHS was quickly coming to an end. We all had mixed emotions about graduation and life in the real world, which was approaching quickly. Everyone looked forward to the good times that were in store for us during our last year of high school. Our last year at LPHS gave some a “last chance” to take part in that one activity that was forgotten in the first three years. Sports like foot- ball, wrestling, basketball, gymnastics, and track occupied a lot of time for some. Other activities like drama, music, publications, FHA, and FFA were appealing to others. Our senior year made us realize that this was the last time we would cheer or compete as a Diver so we would have to make the most out of it. We suddenly remembered 1978 when we en- tered LPHS as “little freshmen”, always on the look-out for the seniors. The lessons learned in our first year will always stay with us. As sophomores we learned more. We learned how to stick togeth- er. By the time our junior year came we felt we could handle anything. The long hours of work from August to April to prepare for prom were fun for all. “An Evening in Paradise” will always be remembered as one of the best nights of our high school years. Our senior year will never be forgot- ten. The sporting activities, class get-togethers, trip to Pierre, State B’s, prom, and all the other great times will always be in the back of our minds. There was never a dull moment during our last' year. We ventured to see movies like “Caddy- shack” and saw disco die. We also saw the assasin- ation attempt on Ronald Reagen, and the coming months after ex-Beatle John Lennon was slain. The Iranian crisis also came to an end in ’81. By the time graduation rolled around, we real- ized that we no longer would be together as a group. We looked upon it as a both a sad and happy occasion. We had our chance to leave our imprints on LPHS, and we hope everyone realizes our accomplishments. We hope the classes in the future will stick together and have things to re- member like we do. We will always remember Lake Preston and the things our small school taught us. We will always say with pride, “I graduated from Lake Preston High School.” And in the years to come, we will always treasure the joyous memories of LPHS. 7
