Looking forward, looking back 1989 was a special year; it marked the one hundredth anni- versary of statehood for South Dakota. 1989 — the South Dako- ta Centennial. What a wonderful opportunity for looking forward, looking back ! What a wonderful opportunity for looking back, with pride, at what we've accom- plished, and forward, with antici- pation. at what lies ahead! At LHS, as for South Dakota, 1989 was a special year. And it was the special occasions — both happy and sad — that made the year memorable. Excitement was in the air as George Weisser and Polly Kindel- spire were crowned Homecom- ing king and queen But that ex- citement turned to dismay as the football team was crushed 36-0 by the Herreid-Pollock Express. The Pirates rebounded, however, and made the playoffs for the second straight year, only to watch a 12-0 halftime lead disap- pear into the frigid wind of a No- vember night in Castlewood. The girls' basketball team suf- fered through a difficult season, but the boys capturedHJ-j§ff first district championship in six years, only to fall to Wilmot in the open- ing round of region play at the Barnett Center in a game in which nothing seemed to go right. -Ia4989 Rhonda Reis represented LHS st the state Snow Queen Right Students head home after a busy day Above Right: Alice Kundert speaks about her South Dakota heritage to elementary students in a visit to promote the South Dakota Centennial.

They hoped and prayed that the new administration would finally begin to win the wars against drugs and crime and poverty and illiteracy, South Dakota farmers too looked ahead to the planting season with optimism, hopeful that abun- dant winter snows meant the end of the terrible Drought of '88. And, of course, at home the Class of '89 looked to the future with hope. LHS's centennial graduates looked to tomorrow with the con- fidence of knowing that theirs 1989 — a year to remember. And a wonderful opportunity for looking forward, looking back. 2 Opening
