Let’s Meet Our 1987 Homecoming Queen, Pam Evans On Friday, September 18, 1987, during a special ceremony at halftime, Senior Pam Evans joined an elite club by being named Homecoming Queen. What are some of the things that make Pam an excellent choice for Queen? Pam is very involved with Ne-shannock. She has been class treasurer during all three years in high school. Prior to that, she served as a Student Council representative. She has been a cheerleader since 9th grade and served as captain during her senior year. She also belonged to various clubs and organizations. But what makes Pam the perfect choice is her friendly attitude toward everyone. She always has a smile on her face and a kind word for everyone. That’s what makes a Homecoming Queen. Homecoming 15

Homecoming Pam Evans Is Crowned Queen On Friday, September 18, the Neshannock Lancers played hosts to the Big Red from West Middlesex. But, more importantly, at least as far as some people are concerned, Neshannock celebrated Homecoming. Three girls from the sophmore, junior, and senior classes were chosen in elections about two weeks prior to the Homecoming game. Of course, they experienced the general hoopla that always surrounds the Homecoming court. But, as the game drew near, nervous expectations came as well as the girls worries about such things as their hair, their dress, whether they would fall off of the car they rode, etc. The big evening arrived and everyone was concerned about the rain that had fallen during the week. While the field was not in condition to be used, the court did get to ride around the field, and walked to the front of the stands on the track. Tensions mounted as the drum roll played. The stadium cheered as Pam Evans was named the 1987 Homecoming Queen. After receiving the queen’s flowers and tiara, Pam took her traditional ride around the field, then exit-ted the field the a throng of people waiting to congratulate her. Congratulations to all of the girls who made up the 1987 Homecoming Court. 14 Homecoming

Homecoming Dance This year, for the first time, Neshannock’s Student Council decided to hold its Homecoming Dance on the Saturday following Homecoming. Because it was a first time event, some people were somewhat skeptical about it. But, by the time the dance came about, everyone was anticipating what would come about. Because the dance was semi-formal, Student Council decided that a band would be appropriate. Phil Bretton’s band, “Highway 61”, provided the music, another plus since many people wanted to see Phil. Those in attendance rocked the night away as the band played their tunes. Later in the evening, the Homecoming Court, led by Queen Pam Evans, was introduced, then led a dance just for the court. It was a special evening, enjoyed by all, and one that should become a tradition at Neshan-nock. Thanks to Student Council for making the new Homecoming Dance a rousing success. 16 Homecoming Dance
