The word pepfest'' brings back many memorable highlights of the school year. The freshmen and sopho- mores will never forget that first pep- fest. As the band performed, the large crowds slowly entered and found seats in their designated areas. Freshman Sophomore orientation was what the administration called it. Actually, their orientation consisted of band members hurling paper air- planes. a big wheel driven by a crazy junior and toddler sized pampers flying through the air in their direction. The most important thing was to make sure they were made aware of their lower status. Along with orientation. many other exciting things occurred, beginning with a well received introduction of fall sports. Following this, students watched wide-eyed as the Bruinettes proved their excellence during their performance of Sunrise and the show came to a close with the band as they provided us with background to sing our traditional school song. We loved it all!!! Zany banana-eating. Par- don me Bears, Jingle Bells on danc- ing feet, music, laughter, and even fac- ulty members threatening to kill (luck- ily. our good-natured bears straight- ened their morals out!)... These were just a few of the activi- ties which made each pepfest unique and fun telling our Bears that they are always Number 1. 18 PEPFESTS Fight, light, light for victory! Anne Peterson adds her usual spirit and enthusiasm as the school song rings triumphantly through the gymnasium.
