Friends seeing each other again, teachers to understand, and getting back to busy schedules are experienced by everyone. The once silent halls overflow with students laughing, talking, and tuning in to the latest gossip. Student Council. Drama Club. Key Club, French Club, and many others meet together and plan new activities for the new year. Homecoming. Variety Show, and the Christmas Dance are looked forward to during the fall season. Everyone is kept busy with sports, cheerleading, games, and practices, along with social events, parties, and dances. The new year brings different experiences for all. Semester exams wind to a close and other activities such as All-School Play and spring athletics are focused on. Seniors begin to think about graduation, and underclassmen hope to be asked to the Prom. Finally, the last dance of the year brings everyone together for a final memory. As the year draws to a close, the memories and special moments that were shared, are now considered a part of everyone's lives forever.

As it comes to a dose, we look back and realize we'II never forget all the memories tied to these past four years. When we started as freshmen, we were newcomers, but throughout the years each of us took time to develop our interests and pursue our goals, now we are the leaders of Lakeshore. After this year, we will go our separate ways, but the times we 've helped to cre- ate will always remain part of us. We look at gradua- tion as not only an end but a beginning of the rest of our lives.

An evergreen was donated to our school by senior Dawn Michael's grandparents, John and Sophie Per- esky. The holiday Tree added extra spirit to the Christmas season at LhS. It was placed in the courtyard by the cafeteria and adorned with red bows, red and white lollipops with large '87s, 88s, 89s, and 90s placed on them, and silver stars.

The plot centered around well-known fairy tales like the Three Lit- tle Figs, Snow White, hansel and Gretel, and Sleeping Beauty. It began with the football players, pom pons, and stu- dents of LhS becoming frustrated with losing, doing kicks, and going to school. So, they decided to travel to Once-Upon-a-Time Land like their mommies always told them about. In Fart II of the skit, the audience was amused by Little Red Riding hood, Tin- kerbell, and others in comedic epi- sodes. The act ended when the hand- some Frince refused to kiss Sleeping Beauty. After being ridiculed by the wicked witch, Sleeping Beauty (played by Toby Marsh) asked in a shrill voice Is there a Frince in the house?''

As freshmen, the class of “88” started out at LHS with a little over 300 members. Since then, they have declined to a small, but strong, 240. Now that there is only one more year left, they’ve started anticipating the big “senior” year by planning their “special events.” Their first year, “magic bows” were sold to start their treasury. Business went on through the sophomore year with the selling of cheese and sausage packages. This year, they contin- ued to raise money by selling magazines. The class has raised a little over $6000 for the Junior-Senior Prom, the main goal in high school. Of course, the juniors did more than just work hard on their fund-raiser. Some took to the stage in Variety Show for the Junior Skit; “The Nerdlywed Game”, and some starred in a “California Raisins” commercial. In summary, the past three years at LHS have been filled with fun and laughter, and with loving and caring people who made each year special. Next year, they’ll be looking forward to ordering graduation announce- ments, senior class keys, the Prom, the ever- popular Senior Skip Day, and moreover, graduation.

Right: Me- lissa Hoffman and Yvonne Grassl en- joy some humor in band. This year’s sophomores, led by class advisor Mrs. Johnson, left their mark where traditionally only upperclassmen excel. The most memorable of these victories was capturing first place with their homecoming float depicting their winning theme “Hawaii.” Their float had an active volcano that spewed smoke and balloons amidst a tropical paradise. The highlight of every sophomore year is ordering class rings. For five weeks, the school was buzzing with excitement over which ring to choose. Battered booklets and plastic sizing rings were seen everywhere. Finally, Jostens came, and the final orders were made, and in five weeks the rings were delivered. The “After Five” collection was very popular with the girls, while the “Achiever” was the most popular with the guys. The class fundraiser was selling frozen pizzas. “It was kind of a unique idea, and they sold surprisingly well,” said one sophomore. This money will be used to sponsor the Senior Prom next year. Class officers for the 86-87 school year were: President — Jill Koebel, Vice President — Derek Sotnyk, Secretary — Ellen Buchalski, Treasurer — Julie Starbuck. The Student Council Representatives were Joel Arbanas, Tina Hoffman, Randy Helling, Jenny Karger, and Lisa Ziebarth.

Being a freshman takes a lot of getting used to. The adjustment begins the first day; finding classes. Until the routine is down, all the other students can tell who the freshmen are. They wander the halls looking at room numbers, walk into the wrong classes, and have problems reaching the top shelves of their lockers, the upperclassmen amuse themselves by sending them “to the pool,’’ collecting rent for the lockers, and yelling “zoomies,” as freshmen speed down the hall. Eventually, the daily routine becomes the same as everyone else’s. Most freshmen take at least English 1 2, Algebra 1 2, Biology, and either gym or band. During their first Homecoming, the freshmen finished an impressive third in the float competition. Other exciting times include Christmas Dance, spring break, and finally, summer and the end of a long year.

HADCDUND BAND Angie Hawkins and Mike Schuur practice for marching festival. The flag corps practices for the Indepen- dence Day Parade. In July the marching band was selected to represent Michigan in the 4th of July parade in Washington D.C. Besides going to the nation’s captial, they stopped in Philadelphia to march in a parade. According to the students, it was worth all the hard work. Aside from practicing and marching in the parade, the band students were allowed free time in both cities to see the sights. Many of them were able to view the Liberty Bell and Independence Hall in Philadelphia. In Washington D.C. they toured the Capitol Building, and Arlington National Cemetery. This year's Lancer Marching Band participated in the Independence Day Pa- rade. marching festival, the home football games, and the Blossomtime Parade. Led by drum major Bart Czech, the band received a first division at marching festival. This performance was enhanced by the rifles, who received the “Best Squad award.

The Choral program has undergone many changes in the 1986 1987 school year. Two new choirs; Male Chorus and the Harmon- ettes. were started this year here at LHS. All choirs participated in the Christmas. Spring, and Pops con certs. The Spring Concert featured the music that was performed at the MSVA Choral Festival. The 2nd Annual Pops Concert was held on May 14th and consisted of the popular songs of today performed by soloists, ensembles, and the choirs. Michigan School Vocal Association’s (MSVA) District Festival was held in South Haven. Concert and Chorale Choirs participated in this festival. Concert Choir received a rating of II and Chorale Choir went for comments only. Lakeshore Singers and Harmonettes performed in “In The News.” the 1986 Varsity Show. Lakeshore Singers performed their version of the Elvis Presley favorite. Jailhouse Rock. Harmonettes performed “Big Spender”, from the smash Broadway musical, “Sweet Charity”, with a little help from some of the male members of the faculty. This year was a record year because many students tried out and participated in MSVA’s Honors Choir. Thirteen students went to Oliver early in the Fall to try out for Region B Honors Choir. Ten out of the thirteen were accepted; Holly Hetfield. Jenny Steffens. Dawn Bierlein, Melissa Gilreath, Ann Lehue. Regina Hartwig, Erik Gilreath. Steve Johnson. Aaron Niemi. and Jim Lopez. Out of these ten. seven were accepted into State Honors Choir, where they performed at the Hill Auditorium at the University of Michigan. This was the third year that Concert Choir participated in the Southwestern Michigan School Vocal Festival sponsored by West- ern Michigan University. It consisted of 1250 students attending an all day rehearsal and concluded the evening with a performance at Miller Auditorium. Seven students from Lakeshore were accepted into the festival Honors Choir; Jim Lopez. Aaron Niemi, Steve Johnson, Dawn Bierlein. Ann Lehue. Regina Hartwig. and Holly Hetfield. 61 SCRCCSE This year’s musical. “Scrooge” was performed by the Concert Choir under the direction of Nancy Spitters. “Scrooge” was presented at Win Schuler’s as a Christ- mas Dinner Theatre. “Scrooge” is a musical version of the Charles Dicken’s favorite “A Christmas Carol.” Ebenezer Scrooge Is a stingy old miser who has no compassion whatsoever for his fellow man. Scrooge’s former business partner. Jacob Marley. comes back from the grave to warn Ebenezer that his afterlife will be In grave danger If he does not change his attitude toward mankind. Marley also warns Scrooge of three ghosts that will come and visit him that evening; the ghosts of Christmas Past, Present, and Future. After the visitations of these three ghosts. Scrooge changes his entire outlook on life. He sees the good that people can do and not necessarily the greed In people. The performance was proceeded by a dinner of Cornish Hen provided by Schuler’s. Then the audience was treated to a bit of Christmas Spirit and entertain ing theatre. “Scrooge” was a fun experience for everyone. The Urchins counter clockwise: Anissa Henkel.

KNIOLA: LAKESHORE'S A.D. Dennis Kniola, LHS athletic direc- tor and assistant principal, received the honor of being named the Michi- gan Interscholastic Athletic Adminis- trators Association s Region-6 Ath- letic Director of the year. Mr. Kniola was nominated by fellow AD's and was chosen by the selection commit- tee for his region which includes southwestern Michigan, Grand Rap- ids and Kalamazoo. Mr. Kniola was also one of the seven candidates for the MIAA state athletic director of the year award. This past March, Mr. Kniola stepped down as athletic director, but remained on as a full-time assis- tant principal. Mr. Jim Sanford is re- placing Kniola as athletic director for Lakeshore.

VARSITY SOCCER VICTORIOUS The Lakeshore Lancer soccer team, finishing with a 16 3 1 record, had an exceptional season. The Lancers started their season hot, winning their first twelve games and earning the 2 ranking in the state. Two big wins over St. Joseph high lighted the streak, ex tending the Lancers' re cord against the Bears to 7-0. Unfortunately, the Lancers lost their next game to Holland Chris- tian, the eventual state champions. Lakeshore dominated its opponents, outscoring them 90 to 32, an average of 4.5 to 1.6 points per game. Much of the team’s sue cess came from its depth. A balanced scoring at- tack was spearheaded by Kasewurm, Bunnell, and Foust. Fernau, Williams, Sanders, and Nus held down the defense. Over the past two years, the Lancers have earned a 34-4 1 record, with three of the losses coming to state champions or run- ners-up.

( I i The Lancers perform the “weave before the regional Vytas Sukys and his younger brother John were the master minds behind the success of the Lancer soccer team. Over the last two years, the pair have guided Lakeshore to one of the best records in the state. While Vytas provided leadership from his head coaching position, John gave the team its spark. Though these two did a lot for the team, Vytas still gave most of the credit to his team. “You players are the best I've ever coached, he told the Lancers at the soccer banquet. “Every one of you has a lot of talent, and you'll go far. At the din- ner, Vytas also talked about next year's team, though ten starters graduated this year, he still feels that next season’s Lancers have potential.

Over the last three years, Paul Kase-wurm and Fred Fernau have been stalwarts on the Lancer soccer team. This year, Fred was named to the Class B All-State team, while Paul received honorable mention recogni- tion. Now seniors, both have been three-year starters. Fred, the destroyer, was the team’s best defensive play- er. While Fred used his pow- er to intimidate opponents. Paul beat other players with his quickness. Playing cen- ter forward, he scored thirty goals. He now holds the Lakeshore single season and career scoring records. Like the entire Lancer team, they were at their best when the odds were against them. Sophomore Scott Ciboch, one of Lakeshore s best re- turning players, makes a long pass against St. Joe.

The very name stirs thoughts of the putting green, holes in one, caddies struggling with bags, and more. To the four seniors on the Golf Team, it means having memories that will last a lifetime. John remembers the team fights that cleared the fairways, while Mike remembers hitting a hole in one of the 220 yard 2 at Hampshire Country Club. Rick fondly remembers beating both Eau Claire and River Valley at a dual meet at Pipestone Creek. Gary remembers hitting balls over the clubhouse and into the pond, and he also remembers trying to get struck by lightning.

The 1986-87 season was a rebuilding year for Lakeshore Football. The Lancers posted a 2-7 season with wins over Coloma, 22-21, and Lake Michigan Catholic 20-19. Offensively, the Lancers had a good passing combination in quarterback Jim Korican and wide receiver Bill Gooding. Together they teamed up for 271 yards and 4 touchdowns. Be- fore sidelined with injuries, Tom Anthony had an impressive 3 touchdowns and Sean Phelan rushed for 131 yards in only three games. Run- ning back Darren Murphy led the team in rushing with 383 yards and was followed by Jim Lakey with 143 yards. The Lakeshore defense was led by Peter Brooks, Ken Tollefson, and Matt Cluff. Together, the three compiled 242 tackles. Tollefson, a three time All Conference player, and Cluff re- ceived All State recognition for the 1986 season.

A TIME FOR Domination is the perfect word for the girls' basketball season this year. The Lady Lancers became the team with the most wins in Lakeshore's history by ending with a 24 1 season record. The team started out by winning the Tri- City tournament, then moved on to finish the regular sea- son with a perfect 20-0 record. One of Lakeshore's goals was to win the Districts, and they did just that by blowing past St. Joe, South Haven, and Coloma. Lakeshore went on to defeat Gull Lake, but ended up losing to number two ranked Wayland in the Regional finals. Many team records were broken this season. The Lancers averaged 57.2 points a game, a new high. Also, the Lancers held their opponents to an average of 31.4 points per game, shattering the old record. The leading scorer was Bracken- ridge with 581 points. Other leaders were Paarlberg with 174 rebounds and Gathright with 108 assists and 95 steals. Briney was a close second with 104 assists this season. The recipient of the most improved award was Lisa Hudak, a six foot sophomore forward. The most valuable players were seniors Julie and Michelle. Front: Amy Becher, Anne Clem, Julie Mix, Michelle Gathright, and Kara Knuth.

The team’s motto was arete , meaning ex- cellence, striving to be the best. Michelle ended with 10.6 points per game, while Julie averaged 23.2 points per game. Coach Jim Maier finally achieved his first District title in his eight years of varsity coaching. Coach Maler’s record increased to an impressive 128 wins with only 46 losses.

Along with that were many records set, such as a new defensive record by holding each of their opponent to just 21 points. They also set a new offensive record of 51 points per game with a 72 point game scoring high. Lisa Ruhl was the team’s most valuable player with 218 points.

Coach Craig Warner talks to his fellou team members during a time out. Julie Brackenridge was chosen the yearbook’s fall sports season outstanding athlete. During her high school years, Julie has participated in basketball, volleyball, and track. Her fall sport is basketball, on which she has accumulated a total of 1207 points for her career. She is the highest girls’ career scorer in Lakeshore’s history and has broken many individual records. Chosen as an All-State basketball player this year, Julie has been recruited by Princeton University to play. Besides basketball, she was also chosen as an All- State volleyball player and is an accomplished runner with area leading times in the 880. Sports are only one part of Julie’s high school years. Julie will also graduate in the top 10 of her class with a 3.97 G.P.A. When asked about her most memorable times in high school, Julie replied, “Winning regionals in volleyball. I’ll never forget the look on Connie Mensinger’s face.’’ Along with the fine athletes of 1987, there were also many outstanding athletes from years past that have in- spired us. Lakeshore’s fall sports have produced many players that have gone on to play college and even pro sports. In football there is a long list of graduates that have gone on. Mike Mason, in 1977, went on to play for UCLA and was recruited by the New Jersey Generals, a pro football team. Dean Clem, an “83” graduate and All- American Lancer player, went on to play for Grand Valley. Women’s basketball has produced such players as Jody Rabbers, who played at Grand Valley and then at Texas Women’s University. Lancer graduate Sue Kunkel went on to play for Notre Dame. These and many other athletes have encouraged the Lancer athletes of today. AN EVEN TIME Bruce Blalock jumps at center for the opening tip. Rob Ackerman shoots two of his total 100 points of the year. Kirk Bunnell, a 53% free throw shooter, shoots two. In the tenth year of Jim Sanfords’ coaching the Lancers went 11 and 11. It was a year to struggle, especially early, and a time to rebuild. Dave Stauffer led the team with 199 points and Joe Friesl had 166. The most memorable game was at Cassopolis, a very tough place to play, but a win for LHS. The strong bench was the teams’ greatest asset. The team went on to win 6 of the last 8 games. Coach Sanford said, “it was a very satisfying year because of improvement throughout the whole year — espe- cially without any size.’’ The outlook for next year is good because of the number of Juniors that are returning. Their experi- ence, along with some outstanding JV players who had an 18-2 record, should produce a winning season. Dave Marcade shoots one of his 70 free throws this year. Front: Mgs.

The team finished well in other meets, too. They finished fourth at both the Three Rivers and Sturgis Relays, and they captured second place at the Otsego Relays. Accord- ing to the coach Dennis Brueck, “Everyone worked hard all year and showed a lot of improvement from the previous year. This year’s seniors were Joy Thomas, Julie Brackenridge, Sue Snyder, and Mary Beth Nosotti. All of them made important contributions to the team and will be missed, but the returning members are looking forward to next year.

At the Lakeland Conference meet, Lakeshore earned 2nd, wrapping up an overall 2nd place finish. Much of the team’s suc- cess was due to new coach- es Terry Bohr and Jeff Wa- genmaker, who worked the Lancers into shape. The 3200M Relay team of E. Johnson, B. Frish, J. Simon, and R. Helling and the 1600M Relay team of R. Ed- wards, E. Johnson, J. Si- mon, and D. Edwards quali- fied for State.

She went on to Northwestern University to run. Jody Rabbers, a “76” graduate, played at Grand Valley and went on to win the NCAA softball championship as a member of the Texas Womens University team. Chris Knapp, a “71” graduate, went from CMU to play for the White Sox and the California Angels. Lakeshore’s athletes would like to follow in these athletes footsteps. tMitm The Varsity cheerleaders have had a very successful year. The season began at a cheerleading camp. Long hours of practice resulted in a first place award for the week, plus firsts in creativity and performance. Varsity was now eligible for Nationals in January. Other summer appearances included performing at the Berrien County Youth Fair, winning 1st place and $400, and receiving 4th at the Allegan Fair. Front: Emily Barsuhn. Jill Richter. Chelly Bo- hanek.

The cheerleading clinic helped younger girls to learn more about cheerleading skills, cheers, and sidelines for try-outs. Finally, national competition was at hand. Preliminaries were January 29 and finals on January 30. The requirements were a one and a half minute dance along with a formatted routine.

The Junior Varsity Cheerleaders started off on the fast track. Last summer they sold raffle tickets, and held car washes to raise money. Part of the money went to- ward a Camp which was held at Hope Col- lege for three days. They won 1st place in the competition and went on to Nashville, Tennessee on Dec. 26- 31st, where they placed in the top twenty. These Cheerleaders cheered for more than thirty football and basketball games. They practiced twice a week for two hours or more at a time. Each practice was hard work, but was worth it for the school spirit and competition. The girls sold programs at home Varsity football games and cheered at the Homecoming game with the Varsity Cheerleaders. Terri Gast was their advisor for the year. 4.

The freshmen rahs also made hall posters to raise school spirit. The freshmen went to Ferris State College for summer camp for four days. There they took Grand Champi- onship and qualified for Nashville. The freshmen had great experiences and hope to eventually be state champs. 11 109 TIME FOR KICKS 2.

The standing ovation received by the 1986- 87 Lancerettes at the St. Joseph-Lakeshore game was a reward well deserved. The busy season was brought to a close with this final regular season performance. Tryouts for the 1986-87 pom pon squad were held in April of 1986. The new squad immedi- ately began holding practice to prepare for camp. The girls traveled to Calvin College Au- gust 11-14 to attend Badgerette Pom Pon Camp. It was a grueling four days, but was worth all the work as the Lancerettes received several awards including; 2nd place in their class, 4th place in originality routine, 2nd place senior kickline, a spirit award, and first places each day in the routines taught by the Badgerette Staff. The squad accumulated enough points to be invit- ed to attend the Midwest Invitational in Chicago. Since the uniforms for the squad were getting old, the girls set a goal to buy new uniforms. They held several car washes and rummages in the summer and their biggest money-maker was the carnation sale at Homecoming. They also sold shakers during soccer and basketball games, held pom pon clinics for little girls in the summer and fall. While preparing for basketball season, the Lan- cerettes participated in the Varsity Show. They got wild in their routine to, “Jungle Love.” They also attended a competition December 7 at West Catho- lic High School where they did quite well. Several individual awards were given as well as a 2nd over- all and 1st in their class. In January, the Pom Pon Squad attended a Re- gional Competition in which they placed second and were Invited to State Competition in March. They also competed at the Silverdome In Pontiac. They received a trophy for traveling the farthest distance. The squad was under the leaderhsip of advisor Debbie Adler, Captain — Andrea White, Co-Cap- tain — Amy Godush, Secretary — Donelle Moely, Treasurer — Cathy Garbuschewski, and Scrapbook Maker — Heather Levi.

So this year, a Pep Club was formed to spread spirit throughout the school. 2. Banners were a bright addition to the Lancer gym during games. They were also found livening up the bleachers at soccer games and the walls of the halls of LfIS. 3. Support ran high for our Lady Lancers, as well as the guys, during their successful season that took them undefeated until Regionals. 4. By the look on your face Rob. it seems as if the Pep club spelled your name wrong. PEP PEP PEP PEP This year, a new club was formed at LHS. The Lancer Pep Club was founded by seniors Jennifer Vander Meer and Dawn Michaels. ' 'After spending most of our Junior year making banners and stuff for games by ourselves, we decided it was time to get others into the spirit and add some help, stated Dawn. Mr. Kniola offered to be the sponsor of the group, and a charter was drawn up by the two girls, Mr. Reilly, and Mr. flumes. Soon, organi- zational meetings were held, and dates were cho- sen for the first few gatherings of the club. Every- one was welcome anytime the group met. Turnouts were great, and LfIS was brought up-to- date and to life with banners encouraging atten- dance and spirit for our favorite Lancer teams! Problems arose, though, early into the basketball season. Supplies became limited, and meeting times with high attendance became scarce. For a First year dub, the Pep Club had a strong start and a good response, which will hopefully become another strong tradition here at LfIS in the years to come. Club Members included: Kristi Miller, Emily Barsuhn, Ellen Buchalski, Julie Starbuck, Kathy Schuur, Debby Coffey, Shannon Bailer, Mi- chelle Frens, Kristin Vidt, Ellen Williams, Leslie Graefen, Melissa Friend, Julie Sanders, Tricia Yetzke, Tracy Carter, Anissa Henkel, Sue Snyder, and Doug Morse.

Carey Buczwinski was Editor-In-Chief of this year's paper. Carey remembers many hard days and nights finishing the layout for the paper as deadlines crept closer. Carey said, Til remember laying out the homecoming issue alone when the electricity went out in the storm! Dealing with surprises such as that, and an ability to get the job done well was the major strength of this year's Editor. Other thoughts on this year's paper came from Edi- torial Editor, Veronica Bevilacqua. She said of this year, It was fun and interesting. I did my best.'' Aaron niemi, Staff Writer, said, The strenuous daily sched- ule was really fun and rewarding.

They chose the theme It's Our Time. '' The editor was Dawn Michaels. Mo- reen Mye was in charge of the Senior Section, and Marcie Briney was in charge of Sports. Being a member of the Driftwood staff is hard work. Many hours of thought and work go into the layouts, stories and captions.

Ac- tivities began in the summer with the annual Art Fair. The Key Clubbers as- sisted Kiwanis by working at their brat- wurst stand. In July, several dedicated members visited brain damaged chil- dren at the Mary Freebed Hospital. They spent the day foot painting, cooking dinner, and holding relay races. Once school started, the club began holding meetings every Wednesday morning. The officers which led the meetings were: President — Tina Steiner; Vice-President — Gary Soren- son; Secretary — Cathy Garbus- chewski; Treasurer — Rick Frohock; and Pointskeeper — Moreen Mye. At the beginning of the year, they started a program to help the handicapped chil- dren of the area. Every Friday, four or five volunteers would held the kids en- joy an afternoon of bowling.

The Student Council actively represented the other LtlS students this year. Every other Tuesday morning at 7:15, the Council members met in the library to discuss the needs of the students of Lakeshore High School. Council members spent many hours throughout the year reviewing and discussing the ideas for fundraisers submitted by each club. They had to decide if the fundraisers were appropriate and could be approved. TIME FQR BEMQERflEY Freshmen Officers — Ed Cayo — Vice President.

The Council members kept busy during Homecom- ing heading the float committee, holding the King and Queen elections, sponsoring the Homecoming dance, and sending out invitations for the Homecoming festiv- ities to the alumni of LHS. In addition, the Council played a large part in producing the Variety Show. They selected Randi Frice as the director, and they helped her choose the best acts to create a successful show. The choices were great, and the show was a smash hit all three nights. In a different light, the Stu- dent Council showed the school's concern for others with their highly successful blood-drive. Because of the hard work they spend on publicity for the blood- drive, they received more donations than any other year. During the school year. Student Council ran a snack bar for the students during lunch. They also installed vending machines in the student lounge. From the money raised through these, they purchased a stereo for the snack bar to make lunch more enjoy- able for the students.

LAKESMORE YOUriG LIFE Young Life has been a part of Lakeshore High School for the past 6 years, and this year was its best yet What is Young Life? Well, it has club meetings, but you can't join it. Anyone who'd like to, attends whenever they like. This year more stu- dents than ever before joined. Club meetings fea- tured music, skits (always ridic- ulous and sometimes funny), and a short talk about the Chris- tian faith by an adult leader. The goal is to provide a clear, rele- vant look at Jesus Christ and en- courage participants to make their own choices about Christianity. Young Life 's summer trips to Frontier Ranch in Colorado and Castaway Resort in Minnesota gave 26 members a week of good times and great memo- ries. But, Young Life is not just a program and activities; that's not even the best part. Friend- BRINGS THE GOOD Left: Leader Pat Wright giving a club talk.

Starting the year ofT with the election of otTicers. John Holbrook took charge after he was elected pres- ident by an almost unanimous vote. The club then began to understand robotics through the Hero 1 robot that was donated to the school. Unfortunately, Hero could not keep up with the strain of High School and was disabled shortly into the first semes- ter. The Computer Club then repeated their past fund- Mark and Rob give John a little shock. Mark Garlanger. Rob Lamunion. John Holbrook, and Doug riehrig make-up the Computer Club. raising suc- cess with the an- nual Com- puter Match- ing Ser- vice that was held shortly, before Homecoming. Using a special program on the schools Apple computers and the surveys that students turned into the club, people were matched with the most compatible persons in the survey. Members of the club learned various data processing skills during this and also about the specific algorithms that make the matching progtam work. The money that they raised was used to buy educational software for the school 's computer. Later in the year, the club began experimenting with teleprocessing which might lead to the school opening a computer- ized bulletin board system during the 1987-88 school year.

The Science Club this year experimented with one of the newest and most promising developments of the century: the laser. Throughout the year, the members performed experiments with lasers and sound. To enforce these principles, the club visited Whirlpool to watch lasers used in industry and manufacturing. In addition, the members of Science Club toured Argonne national Laboratory. This is a highly advanced federal laboratory that features an atom-smasher. The scientists shoot atoms through a donut-shaped tunnel at high velocity. The collisions of the atoms produce new elements, which the scientists name and study. This showed the Science Club members what a modern scientist's job consists of. Finally, the members were prepared for the last project After months of study and many experiments, the Science Club sponsored an after-game dance, featuring their own laser show. They raised about $200 for their efforts. When asked to reflect upon the year and why he participated, president Steve Petros said, I'm interested in learning more about science, and it was a chance to have fun learning through participation. 128 ERA - RED ARROW REALTY, INC.

MARY ELLEN BOLDT CROWNED MISS BARODA On a cold Sunday afternoon, Lakeshore Auditorium was the site for a celebration. A Musical Salute: Michigan's 150th Birthday was the sentiment behind the 1987 Miss Baroda pageant. Oh What a Feeling was not only the contests theme, but was the title song to which the 11 beautiful con- testants showed their lively personalities with an exciting opening dance. Following in was a Trivia Party where each contestant presented on Michigan. Entertainment was pro- vided by the Benton Harbor Rap Choir who performed the Blossomtime Calendar of Events. Two dance numbers were also performed by committee members. After the contes- tants displayed their poise, grace, and beautiful dresses, the judges selected a new Baroda court in a silent elimination process. Last years Miss Congeniality, Maria Engel, passed on her crown and banner to Karen Brueck, a Lakeshore senior. Then, second runner-up 1986, Tena Hercik passed on her crown and banner to Connie Schmaltz, a Bridgman senior. Since last years first runner-up, Velva Schroeder, was a con- testant again this year, Traci McGrath crowned the first run- ner-up. Lightening struck twice for Velva as she was again chosen first runner-up. Finally, Traci McGrath handed over her crown to Mary Ellen Boldt. The new Miss Baroda plans on attending college and participating in athletics. ENCHANTMENT 1987 Miss Baroda Mary Ellen Boldt shows her poise.
