What did the students of NCHS do outside of school? In the summer, many people swam with the swim team, or just on their own. Many students played Legion baseball with either the Midgets or the Juniors. Many of the students enjoyed playing golf at Wildwood. Some students rode the trails on their motorcycles, or three wheelers. Four wheeling was also popular. Many of the outdoorsmen enjoyed fishing on the river or on their favorite pond. In the winter, many students joined the youth bowling leagues on Saturday mornings. Also, hunting and trapping was very common. Some students rode thier snowmobiles when there was enough snow. Some students went skiing at Colorado. The students of NCHS were very busy besides all of the school functions that they were involved in. So, you can see that the students had a hectic schedule outside of school as well as while they were attending classes. Clockwise from top: “Snooze, you lose!” This could be a phrase for Mike Ragland as he takes a nap in computers. “The Three Musketeers!” Vicki Sudman, Tracy Lockwood and Angie Rogers. “Causing trouble?” Tammy Farris, Patti Wilson, Siobhan Hummel.

United Seniors!! United Seniors. Take a look at the first letter of each word and a person comes up with “us”. This two-letter word perfectly describes the Class of 1986. It may sound rather simple, but the word “us” is actually complicated when it comes right down to it. This word means unity, togetherness, closeness, and caring, which also means the Class of '86. How do the seniors look at each other as a class? “We stick together and care about each other,” said Dawn Goff. “We’re a class of unity and we have a lot of fun,” said Russell Ferre. “Our class is not one of I’s, but of we’s,” said Scott Reins. The Class of ’86 is a group of over-achievers. Over three-fourths of the class have been involved in at least one organization, or sport sometime during high school. The class has also excelled in academics. College-prep courses such as: Math A, Physics, and Anatomy and Physiology have hit record high amounts of students taking them. Does “us” still sound simple? The Class of 1986 is not made up of individuals, but of a group that will always be bound together through bonds that are invisible to any other class before it and after it. “We are the class with class.” Angie Bender Laurie Benzel Paula Allen Robin Bando Joe Barton Robert Boehnke Chris Angel Mike Barrett Teresa Bates John Bryant 6 Seniors
