Wzzfzwf Wm Mme foe... Weekends - to most students it meant no school for two days. but it was a chance for people to enjoy themselves or try to earn a living. Many students went to the games to cheer on Lancer sports teams, sup- port Lancer Productions. and many other school activities. while others were forced to go to work. While jobs ranged from cleaning to retail. many people enjoyed their jobs for reasons other than a weekly pay- check. People could make friends through their jobs and often met people they never would have met before. Others decided to go to the mall and participate in their favorite hobby - shopping. To some, this meant spending the day walking around and trying to find the perfect outfit. while others simply res- tocked their closets. The saying that when the going gets tough. the tough go shopping was true, as many hard earned paychecks were blown that way. lt didn't really mat- ter what you did onthe weekends as long as you got to do something that you wanted to do. The worst part of the weekend was Sunday night. That was when many stu- dents finally pulled out the books and started to cram in one week- end's worth of homework in just a few hours.

The yearbook staffs' everyday outspoken member. Jerel Lee. is finally forced to shut up. Figuring out what places to go to get ads. Keith Loeffelholtz writes down his agenda for the day. Cleaning out the file drawers for the upcoming years' ads, Darren Smith and Amy Anderson. two of the business editors. work together as a team. As the annual summer yearbook workshop 2 pproached. Mr. Len Cockman and five students. Lori Smith Jerel Lee. Jeff Collins. Keith Loeffelholz, and Chrissie Fink headed for the University of Northern lowa for the three day camp. Introductory skills were taught and basic ideas vi ere formed through mini-courses. Such courses included. lay rut and de- sign. copy and captions. photography, and a humorous What Not To Do course headed by Mr. Cockma 1. The staff members and Mr. Cockman put together ideas and brain- stormed for the three day trip and the theme was created from the idea Jeff Collins had. Starting on September 1. 1987, eighteen staff members joined together with their advisor in the new facility, complete with a classroom, office, and darkroom. Students decided who should do what. and where to put exactly what they FIFTY-SIX wanted in the book. A group brainstorm for ideas to build the theme helped to input each persons different taste. Lecture and creations of layouts showed how to do what had to be done by March 1, 1988. As the year progressed quickly, the Shield was produced slowly. Meeting the deadlines seemed impossible and miss- ing them was inevitable. Although a few staff members and Mr. Cockman pulled together and devoted hours after school and home to rush in the majority of the book by February 20. 1988. There is a lot more work involved than what most people see in the end of may. Each picture must be cropped and labled. then placed on a page, each page must be drawn with a separate idea, copy and captions have to be written, and information must be found and arranged. All of which is easier said than done.
