Then what happened? -- At Fall Fest, senior Randy Pennington talks with junior Valerie Hale near the cheerleaders booth during fourth lunch. Azetifvities Rob Connelly. Rob decided to weigh down his balloons, so they wouldn't float away, so he used the goldfish he won. Unfortunately for the fish, it wasnit quite heavy enough and it drifted off into the sky. Rob waved goodbye with a heavy heart, as he wasn't pleased with the'idea of being a fish murderer. So a good time was had by all at the festival, except of course, for the goldfish that flew over Mesa. Another exciting event at Mountain View was the Fall Fest, with loud music, and a wami sun this event had it all, including Lizard Shakes. The lizard shakes, were made by the students from Neil's Place, and word had it they were delicious. Junior Chad Andrews 1? said he was really surprised, It looks disgusting, but it tastes great. The SIMM Club sponsored a pie throw with Mountain View fac- ulty as targets. Thad Decker, who had a pie thrown in his face, said, It was an exhilarating experience. I love hav- ing whipped cream in my hair and shirt, and in fact feeling like a walk- ing can of Cool Whip. Stacy Beinholt said, HI marked it on my calendar the day I found out about it, in fact this is the most fun I have had all year!

Many teenagers started their weekends at home on the phone planning or confirming their evening's adven- ture. F r i d a y nights during football season found cars full of students and par- ents heading for t h e f o o t b a 1 l stadium.They waited in lines andfilledthe bleachers to watch th e M o u n t a i n View Toros strive for victory. After the game, either a celebration or a time for consolation was found at Mc Donalds. After a late night, students were given a chance for some long awaited sleep. Senior Chad McAllister said My weekends are nocturnal - I party all night and sleep all day. This was true for a lot of high school students. Even those who worked kept their school spirit alive by participat- ing in as many school activities as possible, such as, Toro Family Fest, Fall Fest, school dances and club activities. Saturdays were spent shop- ping, washing cars or getting ready for a date. The night may have con- sisted of just about anything and usu- ally did. Sophomore Brad Henderson said he and his friends did anything as long as they had funlv Junior Shelley Franzmeier said she and her friends enjoyed Cn1isin' by Dick's Drive-In or sneaking into after hours at Devil Housef' Senior Amy Franco said her favorite thing to do was go to the 1 sexi, .s- movies. Sundays were a time for rest in many cases. It was a time to catch up on sleep or catch up on homework. Also, there were times for family get togethers. There were days when a student could see their parents, brothers, and sisters who they hadn't really talked to all week . They were times to catch up on all of the happenings that one might have missed in the past week, and a day to find out if he was grounded for the next week because of missing his curfews over the weekend. In many cases a weekend was filled with family, friends, laughter and good times. They were memories of part of a student's high school years that should be cherished and never for- gotten, for they cannot be replaced.
