Karen Habra from Kalamazoo Hackett looks lost in little ole' Mattawan. This past year a group of Mattawan students took part in a two-day adventure to our neighboring schools. This gives students a chance to see how the other school systems operate, and it also gives them an opportunity to meet many new people. The KVA schools include: Kalamazoo Christian, Paw Paw, Parchment, Galesburg, Kalamazoo Hackett, Delton Kellogg and Mattawan. These schools all take part in the exchange day each year. Now You Listen To Me! Matt Schuen and Matt Evers (Kalamazoo Christian) discuss the rules. What Are You Looking At? Leigh Goodman and Kerrin Hin-dinaugh (Paw Paw) are not very sociable today. 77

Looking At Choir The 1987 high school chorus has had a terrific year. With the Octet included, the choir totals at thirty students, all with fine voices. Though small, the choir represents itself well at concerts. Mrs. Overton has formed two special groups in place of the Select Choir. The Select Choir has been discontinued due to the lack of interest. These two groups are the Octet and the Quartet. The Octet consists of not eight, but nine members, due to a student transfer. It has five men and four ladies. Singing soprano are Amy Iciek and Carrie VanNiman. Accompanying the sopranos are altos Tallis Weeldreyer and Jill Russell. Tenors Kevin Hughes and Tom Shelton are joined in song by basses Mike Wilson, Brad Sams, and Derek Dejager. This group practices after school or when it is convenient for all the members. Four members comprise the Quartet. The students in this group are dedicated and devote much of their personal time to the success of the group. Amy Iciek, Tallis Weeldreyer, Kevin Hughes, and Mike Wilson are once again the members.
