CHEERS! Consisting of three juniors and three sophomores, the girl's varsity rally promoted lots of spirit for the girls' basketball team. The rally did something special during the sea- son called 'Secret Sisters , each girl on the rally had two girl bas- ketball players and they sent them a little something each week for good luck. Some of the things they sent were: candy, flowers, stuffed animals, cards, and balloons. The rally had a lot of fun doing it, and the basketball team enjoyed their little gifts. The girls also worked hard on signs for the gym, dance routines, and cheers. Being on girls varsity lets them gain experience for future years for top rally posi- tions.

SOMETHING NEW The selection and composition of the 1985-86 junior varsity rally dif- fered from the past years. Rather than select the squad in the spring when the varsity squad was chosen, it was decided to hold separate tryouts just prior to basketball season. These tryouts were open to freshmen, soph- omores. and juniors. Eventually, a squad of eight girls was selected to support the J.V. basketball team. This rally consisted of three juniors, one sophomore, and four freshmen. In previous years a separate freshman squad was chosen, but a squad which combined upper classmen with un- derclassmen worked out extremely well. The J.V. rally was led by two ex- perienced juniors, Tammy Olson and Dana Overstreet. Olson acted as the squad s captain. Although the other six girls were newcomers to cheer- leading, they improved rapidly and impressed Mazama students, faculty, and fans with their skill and enthusi- asm. The junior varsity cheerleaders were a valuable and impressive part of the MHS rally program, and the members of this talented group are almost certain to be a vital part of future Mazama squads.

Telling their team they want two more points is Lisa Hoff and Kristy Patzke. Lisa and Kristy being freshmen cheered both J.V. and freshmen basketball. The 1985-86 flag team showed excellence and determination in the process to entertain Mazama sports fans. The group started the 1985-86 school year with five members that worked all summer at car washes, bake sales, and garage sales as well as other fund raisers. They worked hard to raise the $700.00 plus that was required to attend the USA flag camp in Santa Cruz, California. This was the second time that any Mazama flag team pursued attend- ing a camp. After returning from the four- day camp, the five members showed that they had learned praise and appearance tips, as well as complex skills and routines. By football season the small group entertained the crowd in a big way with flashy, top-of-rhe line rou- tines. The five member team was cut to three during the season, even so, the quality performances con- tinued throughout the football season and parades. Over-all the team was a success through the good and hard times. Junior Varsity Rally, Flag Team-133 ----------J FLAGS FLY HIGH FLAG TEAM: Tammy Vincent. Yvonne Ouellette. Tracy Santos.
