Hot fun in the summertime Camps add variety to summer For many students the learning con- tinued outside of school, as they at- tended summer camps for special ac- tivities. An average day at band camp began at six a.m. with calisthenics and funda- mentals of marching the field. The band had morning practice sessions when they learned and practiced new positions of marching on the field. After lunch band members returned for some practicing on specific sections. Free time was spent canoeing, playing volleyball or playing an exciting game of boardwalk. After evening practices, special activities, such as pizza parties, lip syncs and dances, relaxed band members as the day ended. Each day at band camp brought more excitement to me, said senior band member Amy Briner. The more we learned, the more exciting It was. For the boys basketball camp, the day began at seven each morning with breakfast and a lecture by one of the coaches. Players then participated In morning tournaments. After lunch, they played more games, then focused on free time, which was spent either swimming, playing cards or just rest- ing. After dinner there were evening games. Around ten the coaches or- dered out food from fast-food restau- rants. The day ended with lights-out at eleven. It was a lot of fun getting to meet people and play against some of the best players in the state, said Trojan varsity basketball player David McAfee. Foursquare Gospel Church campers went to Wisconsin last summer. A typi- cal day began at seven with breakfast. Morning service was after breakfast. In the afternoon campers competed in sports activities. Free time was also in the afternoon. Evening service was at seven each evening, followed by Af- ter-glow . Lights-out was between ten and eleven p.m. Cheerleading camp was at the I.U. campus in Bloomington. An average day began at eight a.m. on the field with warm-ups. Cheerleaders prac- ticed cheers, chants, tumbling and pyr- amids. In the afternoons they attended workshops focusing on areas such as spirit, fundraising and squad unity. Dur- ing breaks squads purchased popsi- cles. NCCHS came in first for the most money spent on popsicles. Free time was spent practicing or resting. Eve- ning evaluations were at 6:30. Individ- ual squads were evaluated on all tech- niques, then they received ribbons for their placement. The day ended at 10:30. 10 c-

A special rose for a special occasion Kim Gooding contemplates her future during the 1987 graduation ceremony. Graduation After many years of hard work, 340 members of the senior class finally re- alized a goal and a dream as they pa- raded into the fieldhouse one last time as NCCHS students. In a matter of min- utes these students were transformed into NCCHS alumni, ready to set new goals and dreams. The ceremony opened with the tradi- tional Pomp and Circumstance, played by the Symphonic band. Class salutatorian Linda Beck delivered a message entitled, Reaching Your Own Pike ' s Peak. Senior Brenna Maloney then spoke about Hunting for Ele- phants. Paul Crousore, NCCHS principal, then presented a diploma to each graduate. Royce Wilkinson was hon- ored as class valedictorian, and Beck was named salutatorian. The flower was the white rose tipped in blue, and the colors were royal blue and silver. Something worth waiting for Suzanne 7 ig- gins, Troy Wilburn and Royce Wilkinson hold proof of completing high school. 1987 Prom Court . Juniors April Roberts. Kristy Selm.

Walk Like An Egyptian Sophomore Mandy Carpenter displays her away from home antics at cheerleading camp. Cheerleading As a senior, I really wanted our squad to win, but since the camp was so large and there were so many good squads, we didn ' t expect to win, so the thrill of winning was even greater, said senior Leigh Sweigart. At summer cheerleading camp the varsity cheerleaders took first place over all other varsity squads from across Indiana. On the final day of camp, the squads were evaluated for final competition . The top five squads in each division then competed in the final competi- tion. The top two squads advanced to National competition in Nashville, Ten- nessee. The NCCHS junior varsity squad re- ceived second place and continued to the nationals. Although the varsity cheerleaders were eligible to continue to Nashville, they elected not to com- pete. All Fired Up And Ready to Go Varsity cheer- leaders Karen Selm. Stefanie Shock. Leigh Swei- gart and Monica Stoots head off to summer camp at Indiana University in Bloomington. Kings sland Monkey See Monkey Do Sophomores Diana Horak and Chavonne Cole prove that band camp IS more than marching. Loop to Loop Many brave souis attempted this new, exciting roller coaster at Kings Island. This attraction was called the Vortex. Just across the state line, only two hours away, lay a fun-filled park full of rides, games, shops, and shows and restaurants. Many young people took time during the summer to enjoy the stomach turning rides and the different foods available at Kings Island. A famous attraction that had been at Kings Island for a couple of years was the White Water Canyon. This ride guaranteed that no one stayed com- pletely dry. Boats sailed down the riv- er, passing through obstacles such as fountains and waterfalls. The White Wa- ter Canyon was very popular during the hot summer days. One of the new attractions in 1987 was the Vortex. This roller coaster ride was full of many twisting, turning loops. Another new attraction somewhat like a roller coaster was a special movie theatre. The films shown made a per- son feel as if he was actually moving. Hanna Barbara Land was an area for children. Other areas offered rides and games for the teenagers. Adults en- joyed the rides and games as well as the variety shops and shows available on the International Street. Kings Island provided something fun for the whole family. Summer 11
