Students are busy during the summer n Camps, vacations, and workshops occupy students The 1987 Trojan summer was filled with many activities. For example, many attended band camp, kicking camp or wrestling camp. Cheerleaders practiced their cheers while the yearbook editors prepared this year's yearbook. Still others were at Boys' and Girls' State, the various Governor's schools, and sports camps. Some students also very generously gave part of their time to help at some of the various handicapped camps around the area. Even the faculty and administration were busy preparing for the new school year. Still more students took on the tasks of part-time employment at some of the businesses in Millington and Memphis. Besides working with the school and around the community, there was still time for some fun-going to the pool, picnicking in Shelby Forest, traveling to the beach or Europe, or attending church camps. Another big hit throughout the area was baseball. From the summer league teams all the way to the U.S. Olympic team, which practiced and played at Legion Field, there was much to be seen. Some students went to Libertyland while others just went to parties or other social events, but the summer was exciting and fun. In the end, once again it seemed that something that was moving by so slowly sped past so quickly, and summer was over. So now everyone just has to wait another year for that glorious time to arrive again, but until then, may MCHS have a great school year! 12 ACTIVITIES

Activities fill students’ summers USA Olympic baseball team arouses community spirit Summer was a lime to learn and pursue special interests as well as take vacations. This summer's many camps offered students diverse experiences. Our many summer students gave their interpretations of their camps: Omar E. Rabuco described band camp- We learned new routines and discovered what the new members will contribute. Robert Hemmings added this state-ment- This has been the best band camp since I’ve been here. I.eigh Ann LaBarreare had this to say about her camp, also attended by Greg Ritter-“I attended the Senior Scholars academic camp at Centre College in Danville, KY. and studied the use of computers in Chemistry and Physics. John Mitchell commented on Boys' State-“350 boys from Tennessee attended Boys’ State on the Tennessee Tech campus to study Tennessee government. I develojl ed many friendships and hope to see the guys again someday. Mary Kincaid remarked-'‘Governor's School is great because it offers so many diverse opportunities, classes like Video Documentary, Poetry, and Comedy. Lisa Swihart also discoursed on Governor’s School-’’ I learned more than just logic; I learned about human ideals, feel-ings. These quotes reflect the unique experiences of the students, both academic and extracurricular. Their portrait is not one of tedious study, but of challenge and excitement. While visiting Germany.
