Monday was the beginning of the special dress up days to help boost the school spirit. People arrived at school that day dressed as if it was a bright and sunny Hawaiian day. Tuesday was a rather goofy day, as the OHS students were shown what a real nerd looked like. Wednesday was backwards day and Thursday saw many bed sheets as everyone dressed Toga. The school spir- it was flying high by Friday, red and black day. For the first time in twenty-four years, the Sen- ior Varsity Club members were unable to build the traditional bonfire due to uncooperative weather. However, the pep assembly and Senior class sup- per were still Thursday evening. The assembly began with coronation of the King and Queen. Then flowers were presented to the coaches before they gave their inspiring speech- es. Adding to the night's activities, the cheer- leaders performed a skit based on different fairy tales and led many games involving the OHS stu- dents. The pom pon girls dressed as ruffians per- forming to the song Street Beat.
