The Spirit Club relaxes between cheers. Students take a break from cheering during halftime. The dream of every athlete is to have a successful season. To help athletes achieve their goals is the main reason behind Spirit Club. This year, the Spirit Club was active in many ways to help promote the spirit necessary for success in sports. They were responsible for Homecoming, posters, a few pep rallies, and maintaining spirit throughout the year. Jennifer Chapman and Kelly Hadan were elected early in the year to act as Spirit Club representatives. 98

Megaphones In Motion - The 79-80 cheerleading squad risked their lives to raise spirit with stunts. From top to bottom, left to right; Sue Mettenbrink, Sherri Christensen, Brenda Eilts, Melissa Anderson, Lisa Chapman, Regina Crapson, Tracey Crook, and Sandy Cure. For eight Northwest students, the dream of being a cheerleader became a reality when they were tapped at a Spirit Club banquet in the spring of 79. For these girls, cheerleading started immediately with 5:00 a.m. practices. These were preparing them for a year of cheering and for a clinic they attended in Lincoln. While at clinic, they were awarded with four ribbons and many lasting memories. Northwest first saw the girls at a pep rally with the infamous Wizard Of Oz skit. From then on they represented their school dur- ing football, volleyball, cross country, boys and girls bas- ketball, and wrestling. Sue Mettenbrink flashes her braces after a Viking victory. Lisa Chapman watches tensely during a close game. 100
