One feature that the majority of the students liked was the carpeting. The Commons, or the lunchroom, was used as a walkway, as well as a place for meet- ings. The business department was equipped with new IBM typewriters and adding machines, although some of the type- writers and desks were late in arriving. The first two weeks of school business students used cardboard boxes as desks. The Steno Block students spent two hours doing no- thing but shorthand and gram- mar for the lack of machines. Not only did the students not have desks, but also the teachers were without them. Teach- ers used a chair to store their materials. Top: Seniors and Sophomores socialize while at lunch.

It had a wrestling room, gymnastic room, re- prographics room, larger locker rooms, lecture room, conference room, and forum. There were three rooms known as the TRC’s or Teacher Resource Cen- ters where teachers have wall-hung desks. One of the new programs was the TSI period. The TSI was a unique idea which came and exited quickly. It was a fifty minute break in the middle of the day for students to attend club meetings and other extracurricular activities. One rea- son for this program was to boost stu- dent involvement in clubs. It began to create problems, though. Students, in- stead of going to meetings, would loaf around the Commons making it very crowded during the lunches. It was done away with and this extra hour was divided to add several more minutes to each class and lunch period as well as providing for a homeroom period. 5 m 111 o LL II It f t; For the first time in sixty-one years, Seniors started their final year of school in a completely new building. Although they quickly adjusted to the change, most Seniors still had reservations about the new facilities. They appreciated some as- pects, such as air conditioning, but they were quite vocal in complaining about others. Typical comments were: “They need a traffic light at the lockers;” “A purple and red auditorium . . . Gross!” and What nut decided there wouldn ' t be any windows? Kathy Phillips expressed a wide-spread feeling remarking, I think if they wanted to build a new school they should have waited until they had suffi- cient funds, because this place is totally inadequate for our needs.” Jack Edwin Ammons — Jackie Gregory Daniel Ayers — Danny (Honor Graduate) FCA — 10-12, Science Club — 9- 10, Debate — 1 l.NHS — 10-12, Varsity Club — 10- 12, Key Club — 12, Football — 10-12, Baseball — 11, Wrestling — 10-11, Track — 10, Lettered in football and baseball.

Being a Senior 10 With the start of school in August, se- niors found themselves in the role they had envied for eleven years. At last, they were the oldest students in the school. However, they were soon faced with the many minor frustrations that come with being a senior. Class-spirited individuals who tried to revive the old tradition of senior cuts in the lunch line were chased by Mr. Gray.

A senior lounge and the march through the school with the class coffin was not allowed because of fear of damage to the new school. Several com- mittees were formed to discuss senior privileges with the administration, but lit- tle was accomplished. Joyce Sue Cooper — Joyce Glee Club — 9-12.

Although no one can say for sure, here are some typical comments made by students, teachers, and administrators: “They’re unique and interesting.

It was a great year for extra-curricular activities, sports, forensics, band, every- thing . . . and a great year for the stu- dents and citizens of the community to take pride in.”, commented David Brandt about the 1976-77 school year. Seniors contributed much to making it a success- ful year. They dominated the regional champion football team with twenty- seven members, one state champion wrestling team with five members, and the baseball team with nine members. Seniors were the backbone of the Senior Participation Seniors Work With athletic program”, commented one coach. These seniors were kept in condi- tion by the three seniors of Bod ' s Inc.: Lori Poor, Dana Mitchell, and Maureen Burke. Seniors were also active in other extra-curricular organizations. Ten were involved in the international Thespians. Six were on the district champion foren- sics team. The fourteen seniors in the band and its auxilary units helped lead it to victory at the Festival of Stars compe- tition in Georgia.

In the final weeks of school, Seniors often found it increasingly difficult to concentrate on academics. May brought the arrival of cap and gowns, and district, regional, and state tournaments, and Se- nioritis. Jim Frishkorn commented, “With things like these on our minds, how can we concentrate on books!” 25 Drew O ' Bryan Parham — Drew Varsity Club — 11-12, FCA — 12, Band — 9-11, Stage Band — 9-11, Pep Band — 9-11, Campus Life — 12, Tennis — 10, Varsity Football — 10-12, All District Football — 11-12, Lettered in Band, Tennis and Football.

Of the 64 students polled, 67% were planning to attend either a 2 or a 4 year college, 26% were planning to get a job, 5% were either getting married or al- ready married, and the other 2% were undecided as to what the future held for them. Here are a sampling of the results: Cheryl Wainwright — “I plan to go to college and get a degree in pharmacy, then open ‘Cheryl’s Drugs’.” Joseph Insley — “I want to become a fireman.” Linda Gilliland — “I intend to play pro- fessional tennis.

Ac- cording to Lori Poor, “There’s a lot to do!” Those who had not yet chosen a col- lege were finally forced to come to a de- cision.

Not only were there physical changes such as the new school and new teachers, but there were also other changes occurring such as learn- ing to make decisions concerning the fu- ture. The Class of 77 made all of the ad- justments and soon became the leaders of the various school activities. Yes, it was a great year for the Class of 77.

After picking up their rings, the Juniors went straight to the Commons during the lunch blocks, getting friends to turn their rings. However, they saved turn number 78 until the night of the ring dance. In search of a fund raising project, the Juniors and class advisors resolved to re- turn to the tradition of a ring dance. Halfway through the dance, the Juniors and their dates formed a line and marched underneath a floral arch where they turned their rings the last time. The couples then formed a ring around the arch. There was a dance only for the Ju- niors as the band played “Colour My World. The ring dance was not too successful as far as fund raising, but as a dance spot- lighting the Juniors, it was a triumph.

They held several meetings with the en- tire Junior Class. At these meetings, the class colors, song, and flower were estab- lished. They decided on baby blue and silver as the colors. The song chosen was “Nights in White Satin.” The white rose was selected as the class flower. The Ju- nior Class officers were: President, Mike Kehoe; Vice-President, Karen Holloway; Secretary, Cindy Wallace; and Treasurer, Jeanne Ruark. 37 Financial Difficulties Vernie Krueger plays Linus in the play You ' re a Good Man, Charlie Brown.

The main rea- son for these financial difficulties was non-payment of class dues, although ju- nior Class Officers had several drives to collect back dues. Juniors sponsored several other fund- raising projects, among them the Ring Dance and Sadie Hawkins Dance. Sev- eral basketball games between the stu- dents and the faculty were held. Juniors sold candy and stuffed bulls and also raised money by selling soft drinks at the Varsity basketball games. Finally they were successful in raising enough funds for the prom.

They also had a Teacher- Student Interaction period in the middle of the day which was to be used for at- tending club meetings and other ac- tivities. Unfortunately, due to the lack of participation on the part of many stu- dents, TSI was deleted. When asked what her feelings were on the deletion of TSI, Rita Goode answered, “I understand the reasoning behind cutting TSI, but I think it should be reinstated periodically to see if people causing its (TSI) deletion have learned their lesson.

When asked what she thought of the new high school, Susan Downs re- marked, I think its really neat, you have a new atmosphere but you have to get used to no windows.

The Bull Island chapter of the National Honor Society, under the leadership of sponsors Mrs. June Kump and Mrs. Joan Wynn, led a concerted effort to produce a memorable Homecoming. The cooperation of the participants made the novel parade a suc- cess. On game night, activities got under way with a keynote address by Mr. Nor- ris L. Thomas, former PHS principal. Good weather prompted an overflow crowd which came alive with the playing of Hail Poquoson High” and the en- trance of the football team. At halftime the blue ribbon was given to the Freshman class for the float Beware the Bulls that go bump in the night.” The band then formed a heart while majorettes per- formed their fire baton act in the midst of a glowing, hot pink heart. The finale was the presentation of the Homecoming court. Representatives were: Freshman, Laurie Wendorf; Sophomore, Karen Pauls; Junior, Sharon Barbee; and three Seniors, Tami Ulisse, Cathy Page, and Kathy Phillips. Cathy Page was crowned Homecoming Queen by Principal R.F. Gray at the conclusion of halftime. In the homecoming game the Islander football team charged to a victory of 40 to 0 over Surrey.

Mayor Joseph Bunting commented on the meaning of the Freedom Shrine. Speaker Judge Russell M. Carneal of Wil- liamsburg emphasized the importance of the documents to our heritage. The purpose of the Freedom Shrine is to foster an appreciation of our American heritage. The replicas of these most fam- ous documents in American history were placed in the main lobby of the high school. Judge Carneal speaks at Freedom Shrine presentation. 64 The forum of the new high school was the setting of the Miss Poquoson High School Pageant. As the audience flowed through the doors of the new forum, a big red banner “Merry Christmas’’ greeted them. The theme We need a lit- tle Christmas” was carried throughout the decorations. On stage was a Christ- mas tree, fireplace, several wreaths and a Santa Claus. The six contestants entered were: Laurie Bunting, Michelle Morgan, Caroline Parrish, Carol Stanfield, Debbie Townsend and Mary Wescott. These con- testants selected Michele Morgan as Miss Congeniality. The contestants awarded gifts to emcee Reverend Clifford East and the sponsors. While awaiting the results, Marie Wat- kins, 1976 Miss PHS, gave Rev. East a baton twirling lesson. The talent award was presented to Carol Stanfield for her version of Icestorm” on the xylophone. Winners were: second runner-up, Mary Wescott; first runner-up, Debbie Townsend; and the 1977 Miss PHS, Michelle Morgan. 65 Dedication of the Poquoson High School took place March 20, 1977. The Islander Band opened the ceremony per- forming ' ‘America the Beautiful.’ ' Cindy Elmore, SCA President, led the invoca- tion. After Dr. O.E. Ware welcomed par- ents, Mr. Gray introduced the special guests. Entertainment was provided by the Mixed Chorus. Mayor Joseph Bunt- ing gave the dedicatory remarks. Dr. John Hunt, Chairman of the school board read the dedication of the building. The benediction was read by Senior Earl Miller. FHA and the PTO provided refresh- ments for the reception afterwards.

Mixed Chorus, under the direction of Mrs. Frances Ferugson, performed the Hal- lelujah Chorus. Solos were sung by Debbie Brozovsky, Kristie Wendorf, and Frances Cole. Mrs. Frances Ferguson, Choral director leads the Mixed Chorus. 67 The Holly Ball was sponsored by the S.C.A. According to most students, it was one of the best ever given. There was a very good attendance, much higher than the year before. The dance was held in the commons which was decorated with holly and other Christmas decora- tions. “A lot of hard work, effort, and deter- mination was put into last years Holly Ball. It was a tremendous success,” stated Mrs. Beverly Phillips. Someone catches Maresa Firth ' s eye. Dance-goers congregate around refresh- ment table. 68 Juniors girls opposed Senior girls in the annual “powderpuff ’ game. The pro- ceeds went for the Junior-Senior Prom.

Due to a State basketball tournament, attendance at the play was very poor. Each time we do a new play at PHS we seek new chal- lenges. We have presented a comedy, a mystery, a musical, and now, a drama. Serious drama is difficult but our actors and crew members have done very well”, remarked Mrs. Sandy Katz, sponsor. Members of the cast include: John Goren (Brad Crawford), Marilyn (Michelle Barton), Arthur (Tres Matthews), Junie Moon (Katrina Mizelle), Gregory (Kathy Martin), and Warren (Mark Matzeder). 71 YOU’RE A GOOD MAN CHARLIE BROWN Tres Mathews listens to the advice of Lucy (Kristie Wendorf ).

Weeks of late night rehearsal culminated in a truly memorable per- formance. Dale East, playing the inimita- ble Charlie Brown, seemed to create a role made especially for him. Lucy (Kris- tie Wendorf) counseled Charlie Brown on his book report from her psychiatric booth. One highlight of the presentation was a baseball game involving the entire Snoopy gang. In the grand finale the whole group sang. As Tres Mathews and Marie Fanelli listen atten- tively, Linus (Vernie Krueger) clutches his blanket. 73 Cathy Rollins takes a break in her “busy” schedule as school secretary on Senior Government Day to pose for a picture. WEEK The members of the Senior Fuzz Squad are: (from left to right) Russell Clausen, Tim Goodson, Larry Topping, Gene Hunt, Chip Rowley, Bill For- rest (school Vice President), and Mark Geissinger (Chief of Squad). With the arrival of Senior Week, many underclassmen were aware of a feeling of pending doom. The week started out fairly calm. On Tuesday, the Seniors had a separate lunch shift — free of under- classmen. This was the day the Seniors had a steak dinner. Wednesday was the day for baccalureate practice and the traditional burning of the coffin without the traditional march through the school. Thursday brought the dreaded Senior Government Day. A lounge was set up, along with a special Senior lunch line and eating area. Delinquent underclassmen were dealt with be the “Fuzz” Squad, and were often left with the mark of “77”. Thursday was also the day that Seniors “taught class. The week ended with the class trip to King’s Dominion and the Seals and Crofts concert. (Above) Arriving with a police escort, Gene Hunt, Rev. Will Boylan solemnly leads the processional as Russell Clausen gets it all on film. Russell Clausen is amused at school principal Will Boylan ' s method of dentention for a delinquent underclassman.

Before the evening was over, most of the guys had taken off their jackets and ties. Jim Frishkorn stated, “It (the ballroom) was hotter than the locker room after football practice.” Lynne Willis commented, “The dance floor was so crowded you couldn ' t move and the heat was stifling.” Everyone enjoyed the music which was by Brass Managerie. Cheryl Wainwright had only one complaint, “I wish the band had played our class song. The Senior class song was “The Theme from Mahogany.” Tommy Freeman, Thomas Moore, Cheryl Wain- wright, Lynne Willis, Gee Freeman, and Marie Fanelli make light of how hot the ballroom is at the punch bowl. 76 77 ( Hrafruatton At right: Rev.

George Colston giving the invocation. Mr. Gray lent graduates his ideas of success. He then introduced speakers and guests. Gee Freeman, Saluta- torian, spoke of the changes that had taken place in the community during his high school years. Valedictorian, Karen Jackson, then gave a farewell address to the Class of 77. The guest speaker, Rev. Lewis H. Mor- gan gave the graduation address. Bill Ayers was presented the Joe Thomas Award. Past recipient, Sheryl Moore, presented the plaque to Bill and told what it had meant to her to have received the award. 79 At least 19 graduates were awarded scholarships. The total amount of schol- arships received was over $18,000. Deb- bie Garrett received the most with $3,000 from an anonymous Georgetown Grant, $700 from a Georgetown schol- arship, and $800 from a Fellowship Award. Lynn Willis received several awards.

A slave sale and various candy sales helped bring additional funds for the organiza- tion which hoped to buy a milk shake machine for the new school. The most publicized event was the Care Free gum contest. For weeks PHS students were writing Care Free gum on any paper available. Although PHS didn’t win the contest and the concert by England Dan and John Ford Coley, the students did submit almost one million entries.

The National Honor Society also spon- sored the Ho mecoming Parade. Art Club members sponsored an Art Show for dis- play of their handicrafts in the spring. FBLA members held their usual canned food drive at Christmas and held a spring picnic for members. Candlelight Ceremony 89 FHA members were kept very busy with the club’s activities during the year. Members took several trips to the Baptist Home. Each time they took gifts for the elderly patients. There were several bake sales and members sold candy apples at football games. In addition they sol ' d stationery and cookbooks. At the conclu- sion of the year the club held the annual Mother-Daughter Banquet at which members received certificates.

The SCA held an auction in the fall and the Junior Class held an auction in the spring to raise funds for the Junior-Senior Prom. Prices were sometimes very high. Some slaves brought as much as eight dollars and were purchased by groups instead of in- dividual bidders. Slaves were forced to carry books, purses, and lunches for all their masters. Some even had to dress up for the event. Bert Whitaker praises the virtues of slaves while Mike Kehoe and Sean Rose try to keep slave Bruce Ballard under control. SLAVE AUCTIONS Joan Penn wants everyone to know she bought a slave. 94 Gee Freeman, Susan Harrington, and Debbie Garrett prepare to give speeches for the mock election. Students had an opportunity to voice their opinions and support the candidate of their choice in the mock election held in November. Polling booths were available for use. After the speeches students voted and elected President Ford as their choice in the election. Unfortunately the rest of the nation did not agree with the PHS stu- dents, as they saw in the November elec- tion, but right or wrong they had the chance to choose. MOCK ELECTION 95 Award won by The Island Echo. ISLAND ECHO The staff of The Island Echo worked hard last year to produce ten issues. The highlight of the year was winning first place in Virginia High School League competition. Mrs. Linda DuBose, spon- sor, commented, While the Echo was by no means perfect, I feel that the paper has improved in layout and copy quality. With most of the staff being graduating seniors, Mrs. DuBose felt that the new year would prove quite a challenge for a novice staff. Karen Jackson, editor-in- chief, exerted great effort to make sure production schedules were achieved. - IRGINIA IGH CHOOL EAGUE ISLAND ECHO Poquoson High School FOR its achievement is ql ' ality FEBUCETIUSS service to its school FIRST place AS evaluated by PUBLICATIONS AND SERVICES OF THE VI SCHOOL LEAGUE t HE V H s L information RGINIa HIGH SVARDEO IN CHARLOTTESVILLE.

At the Virginia High School League Publications Workshop in Charlottes- ville, the 1976 yearbook won a first place award. Meetings for advertisement sales began in Augus t. As the first deadline ap- proached, members spent hours after school every day, striving to finish their layouts. “Yearbook membership has de- finitely hit an all time low, ' ' declared Mrs. Carole Weed, sponsor. Membership in the yearbook had dwindled from fifty to seven, which caused the few people left to have to work much harder with more assignments. The basic reason for the tremendous drop was the dropping of the TSI period. 97 New leaders produced dramatic changes in the band procedures and style. Mr. Kessler, the former director at Hun- nington Elementary School, brought the band from immobile shows to moving picture field shows. At first the band was confused about the innovative program. The band had to learn new marching steps such as eight to five and left or right pinwheels. The purpose of the new techniques was to upgrade the perform- ances. Among the routines performed by the band were the formation of a Home- coming, concert formation, and moving boxes. The renovated program helped to upgrade the performances.

The band placed second in the Williamsburg Christmas Parade and the Lancaster Band Festival. In the Madison Homecoming Parade and the Kiwanis Band Muster the band was rated third. Breaking the tradition of at- tending the Apple Blossom Festival in Winchester, the band competed in the Festival of the Stars in Atlanta during April. In order to participate in the Festi- val members held two car washes and sold dozens of doughnuts. At the Festival the band placed first in the field show competition for the class A division. Sharleen West, the new ' Drum Major, took second place at the Festival in open competition for Drum Majors. Sharleen West waits for the right time to halt the drum cadence. 101 Majorettes Tammy Edwards, Martha Sykies, Danette Holloway, and Donna Silver concentrate on the routine in the homecoming parade. e Winning first place in all competition they entered, the Islander Majorettes had a superior year. At camp the Majorettes took first place in the Struting category. They earned another first place in the Williamsburg Christmas Parade. At the Festival of the Stars in Georgia, the Ma- jorettes placed first also. They were in open competition against flag corps, other majorettes, and drill teams from band of all classes. The Islander Majorettes; Tammy Edwards, Martha Sykes, Cathy Page, Julie Pride, Danette Holloway, Donna Silver and Marie Watkins. 102 The PHS Pom-Pon squad; Cindy Clark, Amy Hunt, Patsy Keating, Tami Ulisse, Martha Martin, Martha Ferguson, Kathy Phillips, Patty Quinn, Nina Whitaker, Debbie Davis, Joan Penn, and Dana For- rest. The twelve member Pom-Pon squad be- gan last summer by attending the Gold- en Eagle Pom-Pon and Drill Camp. There the squad received two superior, and one excellent aw ' ards and an overall superior rating for the routines learned at camp. In every competition entered, the squad received no lower than a second place. In Williamsburg Christmas Parade the squad placed first. At the Days Inn Festival of the Stars, in Atlanta, the Pom-Pon squad received a score of ninety out of one hundred points. The squad was in competition with Rifle Corps, Flag Corps, and Majorettes from bands of all sizes and classes. Martha Martin and Martha Ferguson practice their routine before going to Georgia. 103 Flag Corps Attending the University of Virginia Drill Camp, Islanders Kathy Martin and Maresa Firth returned with awards. Kathy won the award for the most im- proved while Maresa won her award lor the best executed routine. In April the Flag Corps participated in the Festival of the Stars, doing a routine to Grand- ioso. The size of the Flag Corps pre- vented them from winning anything in the Festival. The seven member Flag Corps competed against fourteen member Flag Corps, Majorettes, and Drill teams. The Flag Corps were in open competition. 104 Tracy Garrett executes the routine while Bonnie McDaniels and Corry McGraw count before start- ing their part. Color Guard The Color Guard began the year with a full squad. However, during the course of the year, membership dropped from six to four. Beverly Moore, head of the Color Guard, recruited new members. The purpose of the Color Guard was to announce the arrival of the Islander band. Also to carry the American Flag, the School Flag, the Bicentennial Flag, and rifles. The Color Guard; Rita Goode, Beverly Moore, Tina Fanelli, Kathy Insley, Caroline Parish, Susan Downs and Nan Hopkins.

Experience was another key factor this year. Half of the returning team was comprised of seniors and 27 of the re- turning members were lettermen. Expe- rience was also found in the coaching staff, with head mentor Olen “the Big O” Evans returning for his eleventh year and Tom Fay for his eighth year.

Larry Topping ( 4) hands off to fullback Phil Purdy ( 40). 109 The season record showed the whole team effort, and it is a sure bet that no one will forget it for a long time, espe- cially Coach Evans. The season was his best ever as head coach at Poquoson. Coach Evans was asked how he felt con- cerning this, he answered by saying, “It was great. The boys worked hard. Plus, we had the advantage of community and school support! 110 ' ' i iH � n 0F JK j , 4 W.

He attributed the winning record to the team’s unity, spirit, and the long, hard hours of prac- tice. The other J.V. mentor was Frank Jackson who was in charge of the line- man. The team’s season record was five wins and one loss. Both the defense and offense were very strong, but the defense paved the path all through the year. Another strong factor in the team’s excellent season was the team ' s lead- ership. Each of the tri-captains contri- buted to the unity and development of the team.

They presented us with more pep rallies then in past years. With the Homecoming pep rally being the favorite. Through-out the year the cheerleaders put forth extra ef- fort to present little tokens of appreciation such as candy and carmel apples, popcorn, cup cakes, lollipops to help boost the morals of the team players. Also the girls raised money by raffling off a television the proceeds from which went towards their trip to the state wrestling tour- nament. All this contributed to a thrilling and exciting year for the cheerleaders.

The Junior Varsity cheerleading squad, composed of ten members, was under the direction of a new sponsor, Mrs. Paula Gregory. During the summer of 1976 they went to cheerleading camp. Their hard work at camp paid off by winning them two red ribbons and also one white ribbon. With several games and prac- tice twice a week, the cheerleaders were very busy all year. They liked performing in pep rallies, parades, and also at football and basketball games. J.V. cheerleader Maresa Firth commented, “Cheering was so much fun mainly because of the success of the Junior Varsity teams.” Lori Wendorf demonstrates her acrobatic ability in this cheer. 117 Tri-Captains Lead the Manoeuvering around her opponent, Cathy Rollins sets up the play. From the beginning of their first game, it was obvious that the team’s intense work had paid off. They smashed Surry by fifty-two points, setting the pattern for the rest of the season. Tri-captains Gigi Johnson, Jeanne Ruark and Cindy Wal- lace led the team through the following games, where the opponents were out- scored by an average of forty points. It was not until the state championship that the team faced any serious competition. Their determination and stamina enabled them to come from ten points down in the final quarter to defeat Clifton Forge by one point. 119 Last August while many Poquoson High students were still lounging in the sun enjoying their summer vacations, the girls basketball team began grueling two hour practices, twice daily in the summer heat. It was miserable, but worth it, com- mented Susan Frishkorn concerning the long work outs. During these practices the players developed stamina and skill that proved to be embarrassing to the other teams. First-year coach Dennis McNelis also designed a new oftense and defense to suit the needs of the player material. The primary change was the in- stallment of the fast break in the offen- sive game which helped the team to out- run their opponents.

Our other fine varsity wrestlers were Mike Kehoe, Jim Rigney, John Townsend, and Bill Ayers. There were three wrestlers in the 105 lb. class by the end of the season. After Mark Purdy and Bert Whitaker were both injured, Sam Brown filled in. I 129 WINNING SEASON With a team record of 5-3, the JV Wrestlers had a winning season. Co- captains were Craig Messick and Joe Ab- ney. Craig led the team in take-downs. The backbone of the JV team was the eighth and ninth graders which included Jay White, Willie Mays, Scott Crisman, Paul Zasimowich, Will Gibbs and Billy Wescott. Coach Day invited some seventh graders to work out with the team. Even though they weren’t allowed to wrestle in matches because of their age, they gave their time and effort. When Coach Day was asked to com- ment on the team he replied, “The JV’s did an outstanding job helping the varsity team bring back the state title. I’m count- ing heavily on the JV team to fit in the varsity line-up for next year. Especially since four of the state champions are leaving.’’ 130 SCOREBOARD Poquoson 9 Va.

Although the season began with a defeat at Tabb; the team went on to easily win the five following meets. At the district meet in Richmond, the team clearly demonstrated its superiority to its opponents. A thunderstorm during the early part of the meet turned the cinder track into mud, but several Islanders took first places: Mike Kehoe in the mile and two mile, Mike Keating in the triple jump, Tim Goodson in the 440, Will Boylan in the high jump and the mile relay team.

From behind the bleachers, at almost any meet, spectators could often hear strains of strange conversations going on among the girl’s track team. “Do we have to run against a school with scabies?” “I don’t wanna drink Karo syrup. It’ll make me sick.” “Hey, Jeanne did you remember to bring a roll of toilet paper?” Despite these minor problems with scabies, Karo syrup, and inadequate and ill-equipped locker room facilities; the team usually treated the spectators with resounding victories. Although they nar- rowly lost their first meet to AA Tabb; all the other meets until district were won by seventy or more points. 137 Below: Pulling ahead of her King Willian opponent, Lisa Matzeder bounds over the hurdles to qualify for the final heat at District.

DISTRICT CHAMPS (almost) The team seemed to have an excellent chance to capture the district title. De- feat, however, came at the hands of New Kent. At Regionals new Kent won again, with Poquoson coming in third. In the bright spots of the day two regional records were set: Kathy Keating in the 440 and Jeanne Ruark in the 880. Re- venge was gained at the state meet in Charlottesville. Poquoson placed fifth, far ahead of New Kent and other teams in the region. Two state records were smashed. Jeanne Ruark triumphed once again in the 880 with a time of 2:23-6. In the final race of the day the mile relay team of Kathy Keating, Donna Jurosky, Theresa Skirchak, and Jeanne Ruark humbled their opponents with a record time of 4:08.7.; bringing a memorable end to the 1977 track season. 139 Poquoson 10 Pembroke 3 away Poquoson 6 King Queen 0 home Poquoson 26 Gloucester 5 home Poquoson 15 York 8 home Poquoson 7 Surry 3 away Poquoson 17 West Point 6 home Poquoson 9 Tabb 1 home Poquoson 15 Middlesex 2 home Poquoson 8 New Kent 3 away Poquoson 26 King William 3 home Poquoson 22 Charles City 3 away Poquoson 16 Mathews 6 away DISTRICT PLAYOFF Poquoson 13 Mathews 5 home Poquoson 10 King Queen 3 home REGIONAL PLAYOFF Poquoson 9 Central 8 away Poquoson 13 Essex 8 away Wins 16 Losses 0 take£ her time puttingon her Coach Potts SHus for shin guards.

They played Central and Essex in the Regional Tournament. The team beat Central with a score of 9-8 and won against Essex with a 13-8 score enabling them to bring home the Reg- ional title for the second consecutive year. The peerless squad was led by three excellent seniors. They were Gigi Johnson, Cathy Rollins, and Cindy Mac- Kay. Gigi, the team ' s elastic first base- man, had a wonderful season defensively and offensively, leading the team in base hits. Cathy Rollins, catcher, led the team in morale and spirit. Cindy MacKay, sec- ond baseman, developed into one of the best defensive players in the District. Karen Holloway, a Junior, led the team in homeruns. Junior Robin Insley was among the top for stolen bases. De- Lisa Roderick, Cathy Rollins, and Jackie Henley talk over the previous victory encountered as Rhonda Wheless gathers equipment. 141 bbie Diggs, another Junior, was one of the team’s best defensive players and best all around player on the squad. Sharon Pauls sparked the team with superb and dependable plays at third base. Cindy Wallace, by far the team ' s most versatile performer, boasted many honors. She was voted All District Pitcher, Most Valuable Player in the Regional Tourna- ment, and the team ' s Most Valuable Player. Sophomores, Connie Tracy and Denise Pyle instrumented the team as back-up pitchers. Sissy Wright was the only freshman starter on the team. Future starters of the team included Freshmen: Anne Goodson, Cindy Holloway, Lisa Roderick, Missy Perkins, and Terri In- sley. Each player contributed to the success of the team and brought about this tre- mendous season.

When asked about the ’76 baseball sea- son, centerfielder Jim Frishkorn sadly re- plied, “It was a disappointing season. ” Dur- ing the season, everything pointed towards a state A title, but then came the district game with the Matthew’s Blue Devils and Keith Atherton. The Islanders lost the game 2-0. Seniors dominated the field, occupying eight of nine positions. Senior Mark Geis- singer commented, “The team had a lot of unity and spirit. I think that part of this can be attributed to the fact that there are a lot of Seniors on the team who have been play- ing together for a few years. Mike Keating stretches to tag the batter out at first base. 145 Two Islanders Make All-District Base coach Joe Abney carefully watches the game. Catcher Phil Purdy breaks the batter ' s concentra- tion as he makes some distracting chatter.” 146 Despite the disappointing closing of the season, the Islanders had a good record, 15 wins and 2 losses. Coach Kimsey com- mented, “The winning record represents the strong efforts of many individuals.” One of the team’s strengths was in its of- fense. David Brandt had eight homeruns while Mark Geissinger had seven. Both of these Seniors had batting averages over .460. Other strong batters included Tim Goodson and Jim Frishkorn who batted .450 and .340 respectively. First baseman Mike Keating and center- fielder Jim Frishkorn both made All- District for the second year in a row. The only other Islander representative was David Brandt who received an honorable mention at second base. Third baseman Tony Sustare watches the batter in- tently as pitcher Mark Geissinger throws his fast ball. 147 Holloway Moore Post American Legion Post 273 American Legion Auxiliary Post 273 . . in memory of those who made it possible CHELLIS SUPERMARKET Route 17 Tabb, Va.

POQUOSON, VIRGINIA 165 ADMINISTRATION PRINCIPAL Mr. Jack Wood, B.A., Arkansas Tech University, M.ED., William and Mary College Assistant-Principal Mrs. Sandra Bunting, B.S., Edinboro State College, Math, Lang. Arts A new concept for the Poquoson, a Middle School containing grades five through eight bought many changes to the school system. The old PHS building became the new Poquoson Middle School. Mr. Jack Wood, former assistant principal at PHS, was appointed princi- pal. New faculty members were hired, others were transferred from the elemen- tary and high schools. Several teachers taught at both schools. With almost 800 members, the middle school became the largest in Poquoson. As the year progres- sed it became evident that an assistant principal -was needed to cope with so many students and their problems. Mrs. Sandra Bunting, sixth grade teacher, as- sumed the post of assistant principal in March. 166 GUIDANCE Mrs. Thelma Smith M.Ed., William and Mary OFFICE CLERK Mrs. Dryden SECRETARY Mrs. Kay Martin NURSE Mrs. Ray Verser 167 Miss PMS A new school and a new pageant. The first Miss PMS Pageant turned out to be a wonderful event for all who attended. Opening ceremony began with contestants singing “Top of the World. Contestants were judged by their talent, personality, poise, and evening gown competition. Jane Bunting was selected as Little Miss PMS. Kimmi Whitlow was first runner-up and Karen Hoffman, second runner-up. Con- testants for this category were in fifth and sixth grades. Leigh Lawson was chosen the winner for Miss PMS with Lisa Paillex coming in first place and Kerri Kolbeck in second. Contes- tants for Miss PMS were seventh and grad- ers. Rev. Clifford East was Master of Cere- monies. Michele Morgan, Miss PHS, crowned the winners. The first annual Miss Poquoson Middle School Pageant ended as a tremendous suc- cess establishing a new annual event. 168 Fonzie Look-a-Like Dance At Left: Students wait tensely in line while waiting to be judged. Below: The winners, Sandy Millan as Pinky Tuscad- ero and Michael Barton as Fonzie, beam after receiving their record albums. The Fonzie Look-a-Like Dance was a dance held at the middle school for stu- dents who wished to dress up like charac- ters in the 50’s television shows, chiefly resembling Laverne Shirley, Pinky Tuscadero, and Fonzie. All who participated in dressing up were told to come down to the middle of the gym. They formed a line and were judged by the ones receiving the most applause. The two winners received record albums. The winners were Sandy Millan who dressed up like Pinky Tus- cadero and Michael Barton who was cos- tumed similiar to Fonzie. Music was by a WQRK disc jockey. 169 Eighth grade day was a field day for eighth graders. They could come to school dressed any way they wished. They had a contest lor the best dressed. Each homeroom picked the best dressed boy and girl. Between these, the entire eighth grade class voted on the best dressed. Troy Hinkle and Teresa Hollo- way won. Teresa was dressed as an old lady. Troy ' s costume consisted of long johns, shorts, a denim hat, tie, and chec- kered jacket. They had a longer lunch period and got to listen to a stereo while in the cafeteria. Eighth graders got out of fifth and sixth periods. They were allowed to go outside and play games. Eighth Grade Day Belinda Ferguson and Sarah Watson teach Mrs. Weed s French class. 170 Art Club.

They started the year off try- ing to raise enough money to go on a year-end field trip. Members put on an October Carnival for the school and sold custom-made Valentines to the student body to build up the treasury. They de- corated for the St. Patrick’s Day Dance and sponsored an Art Show. At the end of the year they were able to go on a field trip to Chrysler Museum. Mrs. Roberts stated, They worked hard and were a very enthusiastic group.” The Honor Council had two major goals to reach at the start of the year. One was to develop an honor code for PMS. The other was to maintain an honor council to investigate and adjudi- cate possible violations ol the honor code They succeeded in developing both.

They set up election rules allowing the future fifth graders to vote for membership. The dances were a big success. Students from fifth through eighth grades attended, and the SCA made good profits. The major project was the Care Free Gum Contest sponsored by WQRK radio station.

Tom Nidiffer said, “We get the classes we are most interested in, instead of classes where you really don’t know or even care about what is happening. Also, it makes the mandatory classes more interesting too!” This year was full of many joys and sorrows for the Class of ’81. The one sor- row that will remain very real to many of the Eighth Graders was the loss of a friend and Classmate Donald Carmines. 183 T V Joy Miller and other eighth graders find art enjoy- able.

Along with the changing of the schools there came a lot of changes for all the students. Seventh Grader Rena Kent commented, “It was strange coming to school and not seeing all the older kids. 186 Lois Davis Michelle Diggs Marie Douglass Les Drane Mike Dryden Jeff Eastep Phyllis Edwards Stacey Ellis Scott Emerson Charles Evans Cindy Evans Glenn Everett Dana Ferguson Dante Firman Teresa Firman Amy Firth John Firth Sheila Firth Becky Planner Terry Floren Candy Forrest Melanie Forrest Robbie Forrest Sonya Forrest William Freeman Donnie Fulbright Steve Geis singer Heidi Gensler Class of ’82 187 Jeff Gillikin Edie Goodson Paul Gori Dwayne Graham Lisa Griswald Donny Gwalrney Russell Hackney Keith Hall Gay Lynne Haulk Debbie Hammond Karen Hardenbrook Becky Harris Brett Harrison Jackie Harvey Tim Henley Mark Herbener Janet Hogge Angela Holloway Kerry Holloway Monica Holloway Nancy Holloway Tracey Holloway James Holt Debbie Holtacker Suzanne Hooper Doug Hopkins Kelly Howard Joel Huffman Angela Huggett Chris Hunt Helen Hunt David Ingle Jamie Insley David Jacquith Gloria Jones Janel Jurosky Rena Kent Jennie Knox Lisa Kurtz Robbie Kyle Tamara Laskey Vickie Lawrence Seventh Grade 188 Seventh graders find the photographer ' s camera much more interesting than English! With a smaller number of students at P.M.S. there were more activities to suit the needs of the students. Now there were more opportunities to join clubs, go to dances with D.J.’s, and to take more advanced classes. “We’re still getting bos- sed around by Eighth Graders, ventured one of the Class of ’82, “but somehow, now, we still feel bigger!

Class of ’82 191 Sixth graders adapted well to their new surroundings although it was a unique experience to attend a middle school. Among the changes they encountered was the loss of two teachers. At mid-term Mrs. Sandra Bunting left her teaching post to assume the role of assistant prin- cipal for Poquoson Middle School and Mr. Jim Nixon left to become assistant principal at Poquoson Elementary School. Two teaching teams were assembled for the sixth grade. Team one was headed by Mrs. Peggy Martin and included Ms. Ingrid Davis and Mrs. Joyce Dail. The second team was headed by Mrs. Agatha Warner and included Ms. Joyce Alexan- der and Mrs. Mary Makris. Several field trips were planned for the year. A science field trip took the sixth grade to Rice ' s Pit in Hampton to s earch for fossils. During May the two teaching teams alternated in taking the annual sixth grade trip to Washington, D.C. In addition, the Yorktown Victory Center was the proposed site of a picnic sched- uled for June.

First place award was granted to Carol Barton for her gymnastics routine. Sonya Knur, who also did a gymnastics routine, received second place.

Two teaching teams were formed with Mrs. Byrd, Mrs. Collins and Mr. Hall being on one team and the other including Mrs. Strahorn and Miss Richardson. Fifth grade students participated in exploratory classes in art, shop and home economics. Miss Harding helped with the physical education class. Students were members of the SCA, band, chorus and they also took part in the basketball tournaments. They held a fifth grade va- riety show and participated in the chess and checker tournament. Several field trips took the students to see plays presented by the Peninsula Ju- nior Arts Series. Additional trips were taken to the Nature Museum and the Virginia Institute of Marine Science. On that trip they saw slides of marine life and had the opportunity to collect from the York River animals that could be put into an aquarium. 199 Emily Hankins Maria Harding Wade Harrington Shirley Haugen Carl Heilman Toni Hickmott Wesley Hogge Tammy Holloway Virginia Holman Gary Houck Bryan Hubbard Kelly Hunt Robbie Hurst Helen Insley Kelly Insley Chuck James David Jones Ann Jordan Tommy Jordan Beth Joyner During art class students made leather wrist bands, macrame plant hangers, color-me-cups and they did embroidery. Several reading classes presented plays. Creative writing produced many para- graphs, stories and poems. Students especially enjoyed interviewing their par- ents about their own school days. In the Exchange Club essay contest, Dawn Mor- rison won first place for fifth graders while Beth Joyner placed second. 200 ARTS and CRAFTS John Vaughn reviews the instructions on the board Kent Lawson Devin Lawson Karen Leary Susan Lester Kelly Leyland Susan Lilly Henry Liverpool Marcella Luisi Rita Luisi Tommy Mackay Dolores Mainous Mike Matzeder Charles McBride Susie McCartney Terry Miller Richard Mixon Stephanie Moore Dawn Morrison Andy Napier Heidi Nelson Nicole Newsome Laura Oakley Karen Olsen Patrick O ' Neill 201 Jerry Parks John Parrish Teresa Patrick John Pollard Ken Powell Joe Richmond Joe Riggins Valerie Roberts Julie Rondeau Phil Rose Craig Roth Kelly Ruehl Mickey Ryan Gregg Saltzberry Doug Sammons Denise Schillaci Karen Sears Ronda Seely Steve Seligman Alvoid Shackleford Not Pictured Jamie Abbott Raymond Compton Hal Darby Andrew Dyson James Edwards Thomas Garner Matt Jones Jesse Joyce Michael Kohlbeck Tracy Martin John McMinn James Muza Anita Newton Richard Perlotto Carson Rector Lynette Robenolt Michael Sather Tina Saunders Julie Silcox Richard Stephens Deborah Taylor Holly Terrell 202 Dawn Morrison Essay Contest Raymond Compton is engrossed in math.

In the end of the year ceremonies, two Poquoson High School staff members of the order of the Bull Pen Award. Assis- tant Principal Olen Evans and school sec- retary Mrs. Mildred Insley were given the award for their support of the school and the sports teams. Graduation time approached and for the graduating class Senioritis set in early. As the first class to graduate from the new school, they were very happy and feeling very special. Because of the large attendance at the ceremonies, policemen had to direct the parking and even the new gymnasium wasn’t large enough to house the people attending graduation. Joan Penn and Deedie Ferguson become unraveled at year ' s end. BULL PEN AWARDS 210 A reminder of the band ' s Atlanta trip. Triumphant Wrestling Team carries Coach Day. 211 The last day of school is always an ex- citing one for students — and for teach- ers too. Since final exams were given dur- ing the last three days of school and re- port cards were mailed home, students had little time for the usual end-of-the- year pranks and the inevitable water- guns. Seniors had their final days with Senior Week and the burning of the class coffin. At last the end of the first year in the new school had arrived and gradua- tion was over. A typical sight at year ' s end — Dale East and his squirt gun. The last day was more subdued than usual. 212 • Wmston-Solom HUNTER PUBLISHING COMPANY • North Corolino JOHN G PERRY, SALUDA, VIRGINIA R 373.7254 POQ REF Poquoson High School yearbook.
