From Homework Pads to a 312 Page Book The book began in summer staff meet- ings over potato chips and dip, its begin- nings scribbled in old homework pads. Miraculously the notes were expanded in- to spreads, which were eventually transferred onto rough draft layout sheets. The forces behind this effort were 24 students who transformed into journalists by the last deadline, February 15. The staff began with a small number of experienced students, the smallest ever. Graduating seniors gave departing pep talks and nervous wishes of luck. Even the advisor, Mrs. Deborah Mayer, was anx- ious But the staff set out to produce a book their fellow students could be proud of. 312 I OCCURRENCES STAFF Policy changes were made, and good or bad, the staff united to support them. Staffers also supported each other, whether to print a last minute picture, tell a joke to break the tension, or offer a shoulder to cry an. ln the midst of changes, progress was made. Pictures were scheduled and taken, rough draft layouts were transferred onto quads, and deadlines were met, sometimes late at night. The book took shape. Now that the 1982 OCCURRENCES is com- pleted, each staffer feels compelled to turn the pages with every reader, personally sharing their own perceptions of Pinellas Park's catching up. Fortunately the book tells the story just fine. But the story could not have been told without people who gave freely of their time and talent. The staff extends sincere thanks to Mr. Ron Binns, representative from Taylor Publishing Company, who didn't think twice about working on Satur- days or helping with last minute page directions. Thanks are also extended to Bryn Alan Studio photographers Paul Baker, Ed Beaty, and Bob Sullivan, who were only a phone call away for photography assignments. From potato chips and dip to quad packs and grease pencils, the OCCURRENCES staf- fers caught up to their goal of producing a 312 page book.
