Stuffed with splits and ready to burst: Dan Swain takes a break during Homecoming week competition. 5 5 Coming Home In Style pring has sprung, fall has fell, Homecoming's come, and it's fun as . . . well. Booths of food, enrag- ing decibels of top 40 tunes and un- countable amounts of students over the campus during Homecoming. To start off Homecoming with a bang, students came from their classes to see tempting goodies being sold by different groups of NC clubs. The French Club had their everpopu- lar croissants stuffed with ham and cheese. To wash everything down, the FBLA sold orange and banana da- quiri's. To top off this sophisticated meal, there was cotton candy avilable, also sold by FBLA. As tradition would have it, lumpia was sold to the stu- dents and alumni. To entertain everyone, Off The Wall played popular hits, and stu- dents took advantage of the music and danced to their hearts content. The Wrestling Coach, Mr. Lines showed his fellow teachers how he could strut his dance moves with no embarrassment whatsoever. As the week progressed, everyone's spirits rose. Most of the spirit lifting was during the assembly. It let every- one cheer for their favorite candidate and skit. After the freshman candidates were revealed, they went on with the first of four skits. They showed us how NC students Hstrut their stuff and get hot and thirsty in the process. Then, from out of nowhere came KoolAid to quench their thirst. The sophomores took their turn after their candidates were an- nounced. They showed their predic- tion of Saturday's game and how the Condors would send the Cardinals, Up, Up, and awayf' Once we found out who the junior candidates would be, they tried to amuse us with their version of lf I was a Condor. It was working until a chain reaction of laughter broke them all up, and brought the skit to a gig- gling halt. Finally, the candidates for king and queen were told, and the seniors went on to show how Cardinals prepare to play the Condors. They went to the man upstairs for help. Not even he could help them in this desperate time of need. So reluctantly, they went to see the man downstairs. In the end, not even the little devil himself could help Santa Cruz beat North County. he festivities continued with jug- gler Dan Meldendez. He made juggling machetes and rods of fire look easy. If that wasn't enough, he juggled balls while riding a unicy- cle. Now, that's incredible. After his spectacular feat, everyone moved outside for the announcement of this years homecoming court. icon- tinuedb . Homecoming 11
