It is a turning point in our lives that will mark our futures forever. We are departing from the familiar confines of the classroom in search of our place in the world. Some of us will choose to pursue a higher form of education while others will join the graduates of yesteryear in America’s work force. However, no matter what aspect of the future that our decisions hold, we must continue to strive to become the best that we are able to be. We must continue to make our goals challenging and struggle to reach them despite the mountains that obstruct our pathways to success. Finally, we must always keep in mind that success comes not only from the state of mind but should grow from our hearts as well. Together we have struggled through four years of high school to reach a goal in our lives which we can all be proud to have attained. As we leave high school and enter the next phase of our lives, we should carry with us a sense of pride and determination, as well as many wonderful memories from our high school years. If we keep this sense of pride and determination throughout life, we will be able to conquer all of the obstacles life holds for us and lead suc- cessful lives. May you continue to seek the knowledge that will not only enrich your lives but the lives of those you meet as well. Set your goals high. If your mind can con- ceive it and your heart can believe it, you can achieve it! People SENIORS 1. “C’mon, kids, let’s get it together! 2. The Senior Gass float. 3.

We pause to remember the special times Old homecomings, parades, and proms Our first days here as the freshman class And the other three years now gone. We remember when we got our class rings Skipping school and getting caught Grad Nite, Bahamas, and unforgettable times Our last year here has brought. We shared talks, dreams, and laughter And did so much together They said we’d grow up, but we always thought These days would last forever. Now it’s time to go separate ways And no matter how hard we try The tears slip out as we turn to tell All our special friends, “Good-bye.” 20 People — Ally Senior superlatives were voted on by the members of the Senior Class.

Deadlines, blurry pictures, no pencils, and no quadpacks all made creating this year’s book quite a challenge. Without Mrs. Blair’s patience and guidance — “We have one more week until deadline; I hope you’re all finished” and “Okay y’all, we still have not sold enough ads!” — the staff would have never succeeded in making this year’s book the best memory yet. 70 Organizations 3 1.

They participated in various activities, a few of which included sponsoring their annual fall Blood Drive, collecting over 600 kinds of toys for their Toys for Tots project at Christmas time, and hosting both the fall and spring district meetings at MCHS. Officers this year were as follows: President — Tommy Reeves, Vice-President — Allyson Gardner, Secretary — LaWanda Coody, and Treasurer — Leanne Browning. 72 Organizations 3 4 1.

This year MCHS was lucky enough to have both a Beta Bowl team and a Brain Bowl team. The Brain Bowl team was for those students who were interested in answering trivia questions on a competitive basis but were not in the Beta Club. The Beta Bowl team consisted of only students who were in the Beta Club and also had this same interest. The Brain Bowl team was very active competitively and won many awards. The Beta Bowl team was equally active and, aside from winning many other awards, placed second in the district Beta Bowl competition. 1 5 6 1.

This year’s Band faced much adversity because they were such a young group (it was the first year in Band for half the members and over half had been play- ing their instruments only two years or less), but they all pulled together and learned to work as a cohesive team. They made an overall superior rating at all contests, doing especially well at the Sunbelt Invitational Contest in Moultrie, Georgia, where they made it to the finals. At con- cert contest, the MCHS Band received a superior on stage. As always, the “cool marchers” continued their memorable style. Overall, this year’s Band has learned more about life than about music! 3 Left Page 1 1986-87 MCHS Band 2. Band camp had strange effects on people. 3.

The girls ate, drank, and slept basketball during the season while Coach Lankford “drilled” the team.

I looked at you today, and saw the same beautiful mouth that made me cry when you first smiled at me — When you were a baby. It was not long ago, that I held you in my arms long after you fell asleep and I just kept rocking you all night long. I looked at you today, and saw my beautiful daughter — no longer a baby, but a beautiful person — with a full range of emotions and feelings, and ideas and goals. Every day is exciting as I continue to watch you grow, And I want you to always know that in good and bad times, I will love you and that no matter what you do or how you think, or what you say, You can depend on my support, guidance, friendship and love every minute of every day — I love being your mother. 178 Advertisements SALES RENTALS SERVICE REPAIRS B S Equipment 400 S.

It seems like only yesterday, you were only a tiny girl sitting in that rocking chair, singing yourself to sleep. That chair was so much bigger than you, or at least that’s how it seemed ... but look at you now, the time has come for you to take or make your place in this world. You’ve grown into a beautiful, wise young woman, and I know whatever you choose to do you will accomplish it with success. May God be with you always!

Our Annual Staff has tried to capture a few of those precious moments for your memories. The dedication and efforts put forth by the staff were unsurpassed, and I thank them for a job well done. Also, without the guidance, love, patience, and understanding of Mrs. Ann Blair, our dreams would not have been a reality. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts, and we wish you the best! It has been a wonderful year, and I hope you enjoy this 1986-87 Macohi Yearbook as much as we enjoyed helping to make time stand still just for you. Much love, Mary Bess Johnson 216 I •�
