Pirate Pride Lives On :SS 'Q Pep Rallies are one of the biggest events of the year. lt's a chance to yell, scream and get rowdie. One of our best pep rallies was when our faculty decided to become cheer- leaders. lt was the laugh of the century. Our teachers and football players cheered in competition. Our teachers won. Our teachers performed a cheer called Kawasaki - llWe ain't bad and we ain't cocky, we're gonna run over you like a Kawasaki-zoom zoom! Another type of pep rally experienced by the student body was the movement of the cheerleaders and band through the halls performing cheers and playing music. Looking on anxiously two seniors, Sue Holstein and jessica Taylor check out the scene at the Astro- naut Pep Rally, Keeping to the rhythm of the beat, Tina Woods and the other flag corps members perform a routine for the student body raising the schools spirit for the Rockledge game. Preparing to perform their appointed task of flag- ging down pirate fans, jackie Woods, Kim Rivett, loanne Mohrmann, Dee Dee Batien, Debbie Myhre, Tina Woods, and Una Petitt wait anxiously for the signal to begin. 28!
