-.X ,s 4 OT HAOS YEARBOOKXNEWSPAPER We talk, laugh, and play our own version of 'Wheel of Fortune' until about 5:00 pm, then we order pizza, and finally get down to business at around 6:0Of' As an editor of the year- book, Jr. Jennifer McQuaid seemed to be describing a party more than a yearbook deadline. Although it seemed like all fun, much work was put into the making of a yearbook. Yearbook was special from other classes because it gath- ered a select group of people to- gether to work for the same goal. Yearbook adviser Kathy Daly said, The students are the reason I teach yearbook . . . We have more of a chance to talk to each other, which is im- possible in other classes? Some students developed their friendships over the sum- mer. Returning members, usu- ally the upcoming editors, spent one week at a yearbook camp. The camp, located in Santa Cruz, California, allowed stu- dents to learn from each other. Every person who attended the camp agreed it was a fun way to produce a yearbook with people from all areas. The newspaper staff also had to deal with the same frustra- tions as the yearbook staff. Sr. Janet Stifflear functioned both on the newspaper staff and as co-Editor for the yearbook. She said the most prominant differ- ence between the newspaper and yearbook production was when the final product was seen. Janet said, In newspaper the paper comes out every three to four weeks. There is a lot of satisfaction, but the pleasure re- ceived after four or five weeks is minimal. With the yearbook, there is one final product. The excitement of seeing seven months of hard work finally come to life is undescribablef' The hard work on the news- paper staff paid off, too, as they received three national awards and one state award for The Scout.

Sr. Thor Nelson said, I have never worked so hard in any class in high school as this one. But the hard work pays off in both the final publications and the friendships I acquire. The Editor-in-Chief, Rob Hixson, didn't realize all that went into the making of an award winning newspaper. He said, I never thought the pro- duction of a newspaper was so complicated. The first few weeks of newspaper were over- whelming, but I finally got used to itf' Journalism may not have been for all people, but these students seemed to have a spe- cial talent: a talent for writing, designing, or taking pictures. By using their talents, they were able to publish products that they and the school could be proud of.

EADY? KAY. The varsity cheerleaders had a goal. The cheerleaders want- ed more than the position of a runner-up, they wanted to win the state competition. The idea and goal of a state championship was on every- one's mind. Everyone has their own opinions, and everyone's so seriousll' said Sr. captain The- resa Duncan. 'gThe different opinions give a great deal of va- riety to the routine, however, it also causes tension between squad members, said Jr. Mi- chelle Dveirin, another captain. The time involved in cheer- leading was very demanding. Theresa said, No one appreci- ates cheerleaders, and yet the coaches, teams, and fans expect so much from us. Michelle agreed, People don't realize that cheerleaders have other abilities than just putting on a skirt and jumping up and downf, The sophomore squad also prepared for the state competi- tion. Working together for a CHEERLEADERS long time during the summer and preparing for competitions brought our squad closer to- gether as friends and taught us to accept each other's differ- ences, said Soph. Jennifer Schreck. Their hard work paid off, for in the summer competi- tion the sophomore squad won a superior award, the highest giv- en. S The sophomores supported their teams as well. During Homecoming week we wanted to show the teams that we had spirit, said Soph. Jill Pepper. The squad decorated locker rooms and gave candy to help motivate the teams. Although the freshman cheerleaders did not participate in competitions, they played a very important role in support- ing freshman athletics. Fr. Tess Chapman said, Cheerleaders help support the team and re- present the class. It's satisfying when you know you've helped the team win.
