Only the bell could separate Steph- anie Matzgannis and Shawn Fleenor and send them to class on time. ACTIVITIES 5 Free at last! When the bell signaling the end of the last hour of school rang at 8:30 on Wine Uo underclassinen heaved a sigh of relief. They raced for the school and lib- rary parking lots or took to the pavement to begin ten weeks of freedom from classes. This period of teen- age liberty is more commonly called “Summer Vacation.” The summer was a hot one, and beach lovers, sun worshi- ppers, and surfers took great delight in the blazing sun and cloudless days. They were frequently seen roaming the beaches, arms filled with chairs, coolers, floats, and radios, looking for just “the spot” on the over-crowded beach. Junior Tracy Butts com- mented, “I went to Virginia Beach almost every day this summer. Sometimes the beach Born to Skate. In the sky, senior Don Firman shows his skateboarding skills by skating a half-pipe. 6 Summer was so crowded, I had to wait for someone to leave so that I could take their spot.” But once found, the spot was often abandoned for the salt spray of the water. Senior Steve Forrest admits to being guilty of this. “I love the excite- ment of paddling out on one of those rare days when the surf is really great,” he says. Going to the beach may sound pretty easy, but was often more difficult than anti- cipated. Senior Jackie Windley agrees. “Stacey (Robbins) and I went to Croatan almost every Satur- day and Sunday until we were too scared to go. We thought our cars, Bessie Lou and Bessie Sue, were going to break down in the tunnel and cause a back-up for miles.” But there is more to summer than lazy days frol- icking on sunlit beaches. Working was a way of life for many high school students who saved their money or spent it on indispensible ex- tras such as clothes and cars. Senior Melanie Kirsch said, “I worked at t he Original Cookie Company for part of the summer and saved the money I earned for a newer Calas Summer was also a time for traveling to visit family or friends, and students could be seen cruising the country- side in the backs of their par- ents’ cars or in their own. When asked how she spent her summer, junior Amy Alexander replied, “I went to see two friends who live in North Carolina that I haven’t seen for four years. Then I went to visit Clare Bartels, who moved to South Carolina last summer.” Geraldine Flynn said, “I ...rare days of really great surf ife’'s a Breeze spent this summer as an ex- change student in Greece. I had such a great time, I can’t wait to go back, and if someone asks me about it, I could go on for hours just talking about the people I met.” Family reunions often play a part in family vacations. “I went to Colorado for a family reunion and got a four-year- old boyfriend — my second cousin!” confessed Michelle Iacobucci, sophomore. As September 8 drew closer, students were caught in a whirlwind of confusion. From shopping for the latest back-to-school fashions to or- ganizing last minute back- yard barbeques, students were seen rushing frantically from place to place, deter- mined to see the summer out with a bang. Catch the Wake. Freeboarding is a hobby that takes much skill and ef- fort. Senior Steve Forrest enjoyed this activity in the Poquoson River. Splish-Splash. The last day of school, Senior Amy Martin enjoyed splash- ing in a stream at Surrender Field. Summer 7 We may not have an Eiffel Tower, or a gorgeous bridge, but what Poquoson does have are people who have known each other for many years. Poquoson is a small town. There are no movie theaters or malls. There isn’t that much for a teenager to do around here on weekends. Some people may think the city is a loss because it is mis- sing these things, but many students in the school see Poquoson as a “tight-knit community,” says junior David Stowell. David moved to Poquoson one and a half years ago. “When I first moved here it was tough to get to know people because everyone was in little cliques. After I finally got to know people, I had a really good time and I’ve had Throw it in. During Mama’s basketball guards Mrs. Judy Townsend as she tries to pass the ball to a teammate. ame, Diana Pope _..close-knit community irds of a Feather fun ever since.” Junior Jennifer O'Donnell, who moved here a year ago, agrees with David. “It’s weird because everyone knew each other, and it seemed like everyone was related. They all had their own group of friends and it was hard to get involved.” People who have lived in Poquoson for many years agree with the newcomers sometimes. “It’s so small that everyone has already made their friends and newcomers feel locked out,” says Matt Mendez, junior. He has lived in the city for 10 years. But Poquoson also has many advantages related to its size. “It’s good because you have a lot of friends that are really close. You get to know everyone and everything the Cardiac that’s going on. It’s so small that you can feel involved in the community,” says Matt. Junior Randy Freeman, a “Poquosonite” for 10 years says, “I like everything about Poquoson except the flooding and the mosquitos. But other than that I like living in a small town because of the slower pace. You really get a chance to get to know your classmates.” “It has its advantages and disadvantages. I don’t like it because I don’t know what it is like to go toa different school. But it is nice because I get to know just about everyone here,” says junior Laura Milton. Senior Susan Gardner says, “It’s weird because I’ve been going to school with these people since elementary school and now I have to leave my friends and go to college.” There are many positive aspects to growing up in a small town other than the friends you make. “Acad- emically it’s better because of smaller classes, better com- petition and specialization by teachers,” says Randy Davis. Junior Kevin Weis says, “It’s a close-knit community. You're close to a lot of dif- ferent people. In a sense it’s like a big family.” So if you judge Poquoson on its night life or its cultural advantages you may not be impressed, but there is more to a town than its sights. A town is a group of people, and many of the people in Poquo- son are happy right where they are. What’s so interesting? The commons is a great place to gossip between classes.

Coach Steve Tyndall yells to run faster and faster. Out of breath, Joan Smith replies, “I’m not used to all this running, I haven’t done this in years.” As practice for the Cardiacs started two weeks before the game, the mothers appeared to be a little out of shape. For some mothers, this was the first time they had ever played basket- ball. The mothers of the girls’ basketball team agreed to play against their daughters. The proceeds from the game went to pay for sweat- shirts for the team. “It was interesting but I’m glad it’s over and I'll never do it again,” observed Rebounding Rita Smith. “Tt was hilarious to see them running down the court, but we also appreciate them being out there,” commented sophomore Diane Smith. The game brought a lot of participation and hysterics from the fans. The mothers were not left without cheer- leaders. The Rocking Rah-Rahs, mothers of the cheerleaders, cheered on the Cardiacs to the finish. Cheerleader Becky Bradshaw observed, “The cheers were a little old-fashioned but it was nice to have my mom there.” The girls beat the Cardiacs 54-8. Junior Kari Townsend replied, “I had fun and I hope they do it again next year.” We've got spirit yes we do. We've got spirit how bout you? Spirit week was long awai- ted by many students. Senior Karen Moore said, “I was also excited to finally wear my toga.” Popular days were 50’s-60’s day, Costume day and toga day. The week began with 50’s- 60’s day. Students came dressed in poodle skirts, bobby socks, and tie-dyed shirts. Senior Tracey Ken- nedy replied, “I thought it was a wonderful, harmonious experience. Fellow brothers and sisters participated to make this day peaceful and loving. We should have more days like this, so more students can show their in- nerselves. My true innerself is a flower child and I got to dis- play it vividly. My last words are, Peace be with you and God loves you.” Costume day was the day when most students part- icipated. “I thought it was cute that we all got to dress as the Wizard of Oz and it also helped show school spirit,” commented senior Terry Baugh. Homecoming week came to an end with seniors wearing She wonderful, harmonious experience ock 'n Roll Week their togas and underclass- men wearing school colors. As the activities came to an end, it was time for the Hom- ecoming game to begin. The 50’s and 60’s Home- coming theme was evident as the floats rolled past the stands during pre-game. The senior float titled “Yakkety Yak, Dukes don’t come back” won first place. See Homecoming, p. 12 First in Show. The float built by the seniors impressed the judges, who awarded it the first place prize. Julie Abrams watched as the float passed her by. 10 Homecoming On the Warpath.

Homecomi Homecoming Seniors Amanda Martin, Bonny Rollins, and Amy Hawkes were presented dur- “ing half-time. The Home- coming Queen and winner of the crown was Bonny Rollins. When asked how she felt, Bonny replied, “I was ner- vous, excited, scared, and cold all at the same time! All I could think about was my family and Jon (Check) up in the stands watching. The other two senior repre- sentatives were such good friends of mine that it wouldn’t have mattered who was crowned! But it was still a great honor.” “The highlight of the game was when Mark Jenkins sco- red,” commented player John Aronson. The fans respon- ded with the resounding fight song. Although the Bulls lost the Homecoming game 42-7, it didn’t dampen the spirits of the Islander fans who looked forward to the annual Home- coming Dance. The end to the week of cel- ebration was the Homecom- ing Dance. Decorations from the senior hall were provided to capture the spirit of the previous week. Decorations included top hats hung from the ceiling, a shredded sheet which said, “Friends are for- ever,” and clubs and activities rosters were placed on the wall. “It was a good idea using the hall decorations and a nice way to end the week,” re- plied senior Matt Regan. Eager students entered the dance and immediately heard their peers chanting the lyrics to popular songs, such as “All Cried Out.” Senior Tonya Juhl observed, “This was the best Homecoming Dance in the last four years.” The 1987 Homecoming Court.

Spirit is everywhere, not only in pep rallies but also in games and clubs. Senior Jeff Dickson commented, “Everyone in this school has a lot of spirit. It shows in all of the atheletic events because so many students participate.” One way students showed their spirit was Red, White, 14 Spirit _..the growing spirit is evident pirit on the Loose and Blue Day. This day was a way for the school to celebrate the 200th anniversary of the Constitution. Senior Kristy Chaney said, “I thought that Red, White, and Blue Day was a neat idea. I think that too many people take the Con- stitution for granted. Many people showed patriotism and dressed up. I’m glad that I was a part of it.” Another way spirit was de- monstrated was dress-up day High Stepping. The Homecoming pep rally was kicked off by sopho- more Sherri Perok. Poquoson Raisins. “I Heard it Through the Grapevine” was sung during the Halloween pep rally by varsity cheerleaders Amanda Martin and Jennifer McGlohn. for Halloween. Junior Dani Bellis commented, “Most of the students participated on dress-up day. It really indica- ted how much spirit the students have.” The enthusiasm that was portrayed at two consecutive pep rallies was so tremendous that the spirit stick was awar- ded to the entire student body. Senior Yvette Freeman said, “The senior class has tried very hard to get the rest of the student body involved. At pep rallies, school dances, and football games there were always participating sen- iors around.” Senior Valerie Hatton summed up school spirit by saying, “The growing spirit is evident as you walk through the halls. I think that the un- derclassmen have shown much more spirit than in pre- vious years. But of course, the senior class has the most.” : dressing up for Halloween.

Jello Wrestling The chilling sensation of standing in the ice cold mixture, the pressure from the stands, the determination to win if I could only shake the fear and keep my legs from buckling. These were just a few of the thoughts that raced through my mind as I stood facing my op- ponent in the ring of Jell-o. We were competing in the main event for the Battle of the Bods. We advertised the week before with posters, costumes, and announce- ments. By the time the night arrived those of us competing felt sure we'd have lots of support from our friends. Jennifer McGlohn, my tag team partner, had a classic case of nerves. Even as the others competing from Poquoson marched victoriously out of the ring, Jennifer and I felt only a little better about our chances. Bruce Rosenbaum, the coordinator, had re- peatedly reminded us of our safety rules. Brad EEC a i Arts gp cde a a re Borders and Matt Regan, our managers, had drilled us with strategic moves that would dev- astate our competitors from Tabb’s cheerlead- ing squad. Finally the moment arrived and Jennifer and I were escorted into the ring. Only five minutes later we were victoriously led away. We had tinted green skin and green memories of our adventures as Jell-o wrestlers. | Spirit 15 | As the ceremony was about to begin, a hush fell over the crowd. Each couple anxiously awaited its turn to be in the spotlight and cross the bridge. As Andy Howard, senior class president, announced each junior, for just a moment a most precious ring was turned for the 89th time. It was a night looked for- A Perfect Fit. Excitement goes along with eae the class ring. junick ward to with great anticipa- tion. Junior class vice pres- ident, Dan Jones said, “The whole night was a big success because everyone had such a great time. The decorations were splendid due to the aid of the junior class.” The com- mons was decorated in hues of peach and teal. Adding that special touch were gold ...well worth the wait and silver class rings hung from the ceiling, each bearing the name of a junior. Off to the side were candlelit tables for two, where couples could take a relaxing moment from the night’s excitement. Jenny Forrest remarked that “The time taken out to decorate the commons was well worth the effort. It was a very special night and will be remembered by or Just a Moment everyone.” As the evening progressed and the music came to a halt, couples reluctantly parted from the commons. As Nancy McCuistion commented, “For just a moment, it was a night where we laughed until we had to cry, and we loved right down to our last goodbye.” Danille Trombetta was pleased when the Herff Jones representative pla- ced her ring on her finger.

Before an go to the dance, junior Melissa Willis pins a corsage on her date, senior ) enny Discenza. Ring Costs “Attention all juniors, the Herff Jones re- | bresentative will be here on Tuesday during doth lunches to take ring orders.” To most juniors’ surprise, the cost of a class ring 1s on the rise. Junior Dale Williams said, “T can’t believe that my ring cost almost $200 and it was just the basic ring. I can’t imagine how much it would have cost if I had got it through a jeweler.” According to Barclay and Sons Jewelers in | I Coliseum Mall, there is approximately a one hundred dollar difference in boys’ and girls’ class rings in gold and fifty dollars im sil- verplated. Junior Angie Clausen bought her class ring from a jeweler. “I got my name, year of graduation, school shield, and scales of leadership all for $225, and I still don’t think that was a great deal.” A few juniors didn’t purchase a class ring. Junior Scott Drumheller is one. “I decided not to get a class ring because of the price, but of 1 do someday decide to buy one, I'll get ut through Herff Jones because he can always work you a good deal.” No matter what the price or which manu- facturer, the class ring holds the highlight of the junior year. Junior Nancy McCuistion commented, “Years down the road when I look at my ring, it will be a symbol of my high school years and a reminder of all the good times.” Ring Dance 17 INXS Swiss Colony La Vogue Battle of the Bods U2 Hofheimers REM Living End Miller and Rhodes Sting J22d Oe What do all these things have in common? These are activities that students part- icipated in outside school. These activities consisted of jobs, concerts, and Campus Life. Jobs gave students a chance to meet new people and take on more responsibilities. Senior Stacey Overbay said, “It makes school a lot harder but when I finish at the end of Keep 18 Out of school | Smiling. Always cheerful, senior Bonny Rollins smiles as she straightens the rack. She worked in Siitehes at the Coliseum Mall. the week, I feel like I’ve ac- complished something.” Whatever the reason for having a job, students benefit- ted from it. “Working is really fun but sometimes takes away from school activities,” com- mented senior Yvette Free- man. Students gained the knowledge and experience needed to face the working world after graduation. On Friday nights, students enjoyed being entertained at concerts by REM, U2, Sting, and INXS. Junior Tom Kostoff replied, “It was just as fun waiting in line as it was at the U2 concert. I expected too much though, that’s why I was a little disappointed.” Concerts let students see their favorite groups perform. “The day before the REM concert, I had an opportunity to get tickets. I’m glad I didn’t pass up the chance, the con- cert was great,” observed senior Brad Borders. Another activity that students participated in was Campus Life. Meetings were heldeateis2 (apsiiemshatpe Campus Life director, Car- Iton Deal commented, “The meetings are a time when dif- ferent people from different high schools and social groups can get together, ex- perience unity, and laugh at stupid skits.” Members were busy with meetings, flag football, and attending special functions. Two functions that were a big hit were the Battle of the Bods and the Living End Ski Trip. Battle of the Bods was the .. Jobs, concerts, and Campus Life fter Hours first activity which highligh- ted Jello-wrestling, musical pies, and sack races. The Liv- ing End Ski Trip attracted 500 members from different high schools to the Poconos in Allentown, Pennsylvania. When asked about the trip, senior Carol Evans replied, “The Living End Ski Trip gave me a chance to meet new people and enjoy the winter break.” Campus Life stressed personal faith for its teenage members nationwide. Life was not confined to the four walls of the school; students found plenty to do after 1:55 p.m. Senior Erika Jewett oberved, “It seems like there’s never enough time in the day to get everything done.” _ Picture of Concentration.

A familiar question that echoed through the halls was “What are you doing over break?” Christmas break offered time for family, friends, en- tertainment, and relaxation. This break appealed to each student in a different way. “I sat around and reminisced with my relatives,” commen- ted senior Richard Vaughan. Some students traveled to far-off places like Canada, Hawaii, and Pennsylvania. When asked what she did ... vacations, activities, and socializing n The Spirit over Christmas break, senior Beth Ballman replied, “I went to the Poconos for the Living End Ski Trip and when I came back, I spent time with my friends.” Even though Christmas break was a little bit shorter, it still gave everyone a rest be- fore they had to come back for the new year.

He loves me, he loves me not.” Have you ever been caught saying these words to yourself as you pluck the petals from a flower? Although we have all played this age-old game at one time or another, love, whether it be puppy love or the real thing, often times isn’t something to be taken lightly. The many feelings that ac- company a relationship are usually mixed between inse- curities and pressures and the overwhelming excitement of romance. Senior Amanda Martin agrees, “It’s great se- curity knowing that someone 22 Dating cares and will be there for you, especially on weeken ds.” Although relationships can be confusing and even scary sometimes, many students feel that all the hard times are worth their relationship. Says junior Nancy McCuistion, “I think that when two people can work out disagreements it can sometimes help strengthen a relationship. If the relation- ship is strong, it can survive any hardships that come along.” While some prefer a last- ing, dependable relationship, others feel that the single life provides more excitement. “I don’t like being tied down to one person. If I meet some- Hand in Hand.

Break-ups are also a part of relationships. Sometimes, break-ups become a reality long before either half of the couple would like. This type of break-up is often painful for one or both of the people involved. “I guess it’s just a part of life. It hurts you a lot, but you have to get over it. You just have to remember the good times,” explains junior Dan Jones. Although break-ups are a tragedy for some, others feel that variety is the spice of life. XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO he Dating Game Sophomore Cindy Gurganus commented, “I think it’s more exciting to date a lot of people instead of tying myself down. If I have a variety, things don’t get bering.” There are many different aspects of relationships. Dif- ferent people want different things out of a relationship. However you look at it, a re- lationship is good for boost- ing the morale, supplying companionship, and _ provid- ing security and excitement. Most people agree that al- though the single life may be more exciting, being part of a couple definitely has its own rewards. I Knew You Could Do It.

Good Morning PHS. Using this phrase, Junior Dan Jones captured the attention of his peers during his speech for SCA president. 24 Elections “May I please have your attention for the morning an- nouncements. The 1988-89 officers are...” To run for an SCA office, there are several require- ments that must be filled. First, a mandatory petition must be filled out and signed by 25 of the contestants’ peers. Then, those who wish to run must give a speech be- fore all the eligible voters who then vote for the contestant of their choice. On March 22, the officers of the 1988-89 SCA were an- nounced. Dan Jones was elec- ted to the position of pres- ident after his challenging speech on school spirit. The title of vice-president was cap- tured by Shawn Nadeau, who captivated the students’ atten- tion by stripping to PHS box- ers and a T-shirt with his slo- gan, “Nate for VP.” Betsy Borders secured the title of vote for me recording secretary with her slogan, “Not the Average Joe.” Laura Milton was elec- ted as corresponding secre- tary and David Britt as trea- surer. For class elections anyone who wishes to run for office faces similar requirements. They must have 25 signatures from members of their class. Then they too must prepare a speech. With spring break the week before elections, candidates had time to prepare their speeches and psyche them- selves up. Some of the most dynamic speeches were given by the sophomores. Tina Meyers competed for the office of treasurer. She amused her class with a por- trayal of Mister Rogers. Tina’s basic description of her duties in fairy-tale land won her the majority of votes. Sophomore Neil Lambiotte ¥ i he Right Choice will head up his junior class in 1989. Neil explained in his speech his versatility as a stu- dent. His basketball repre- sented his athletic ability and the glasses he wore symbol- ized his intelligence. Neil claimed he will use the char- acteristics to lead on the class of 1990. Although the sophomores came prepared, junior An- drea Forrest rapped herself to victory with an accompani- ment by Richard Pena. She will serve as the vice-presi- dent of the class of 1989. The speeches were just a small task in terms of what lies ahead. The speeches also gave the students a chance to see inside each candidate and hear their intentions for the upcoming year. “Thank you and that’s all for your afternoon an- nouncements.” February 2 — Music assembly; Basketball, Gloucester 3 — Wrestling, Kecoughtan 4 — Competency testing 6 — Wrestling quad; Basketball, Norfolk Christian Take It Off.

As students walked into the gym, they saw Red Cross vol- unteers, crimson colored lawn chairs, and the terrify- ing faces of their peers. These volunteers were pricking fin- gers, taking temperatures and pulses, and recording health histories. Some students were caught wasting time at the cantina but were soon reprimanded by Zeola Fox, cantina chair- person. Others were found trying to console their friends. When asked what he thought about giving blood, senior Erick Grube replied, “Since this was my third time, I knew what to expect and I did it to help someone else. this was m Y first time Onating Blood You never know, I may end up saving my own life.” Red Cross volunteer Sean Ryan stated, “Today has been very successful, prosperous, and organized.” Approximately 125 stu- dents gave a pint of blood, which turned the blood drive into a huge success!

As the school year nears an end, students begin to get restless. When you think about it, Spring break is a way for students to relax, catch some rays, and get ready for the fourth quarter. Junior Eric Rohlfs describes it as, “It’s a way to break away from my parents and also breaks the monotony of life.” Getting away from school and parents is one way stu- dents relax. A few lucky ones got the chance to travel. Ju- nior Kerry Hodgkins went to visit friends in Canada. He says, “I saw friends and got away from my parents.” Spring break is also an ex- cellent time for groups of friends to get together and go places. Seniors Stacey Rob- it's almost over bins and Jackie Windley went to Florida over the break. They said, “Being together in Florida was great. With no parents we kept our own hours and did whatever we wanted to.” For the less fortunate ones of us who have to stay in town for the break, other activities have to suffice, such as in- dulging in a favorite pastime. pring Break Some of the most popular ones seem to shopping, sleep- ing in late, and taking in a movie. Whether you went out of town for the break or just hung around the house, Spring break is a promise of what is to come. After the break comes the realization that summer and freedom are just around the corner. Did You Hear? The Tan-a-Rama Hotel in Nags Head occupies seniors Bruce McEwen and Brad Watkin’s Spring break.

CAMARA! AC- TION! Now this may not be an in- troduction for a play, but for many actors and actresses of the plays Arsenic and Old Lace and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court this is the feeling they get before walk- ing out on stage on opening night. Karen Cunningham, a se- nior who was in the play A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court, expresses her feelings about this by saying, “I was really nervous on opening night until I had a fit of crying and then everything was fine.” The productions of Arsenic and Old Lace and A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court were put on by students who auditioned for the various parts. In the production of a play, not only are the actors 30 Theatre and the actresses important but the people behind the scenes should be given credit. The stage crew has a number of jobs they must perform. Lights, sound, and scenery all must be taken into account. Many people work long and hard to accomplish the effect of transporting a spec- tator to a certain place and time. Junior Mary Rogers, who is a veteran of the play, says, “For me, being backstage is wonderful. I get to see everything that goes on back- stage. The actors and actresses are wonderful and I get to see them before and after the play.” Tryouts for Arsenic and Old Lac e were in late September. The actors and actresses had a scanty two months to mem- orize their lines. The play op- ened on November 19. The play itself was a com- Taken? Taken? Taken?!? When the King’s sister arrives in Camelot, the trouble begins. Queen Morgan, played by Aura Metcalf, lets everyone know, including the wizard, played by Andy Howard, of her displeasure in the Queen’s decision to give up her room to another guest. edy about two old women who kill single, young men out of pity. Throughout the course of the play the char- acters form an interesting web of mayhem and murder. The tryouts for A Con- necticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court took place in late February. The cast had the same amount of time to learn their lines as the other cast. Two months may seem like a long time but any cast mem- ber can tell you it goes by like a snap of the fingers. Earl Woodruff, a senior who has been in a number of plays, says, “After you have been in a few plays, you start to know what to expect from the audi- ence and from the other ac- tors. Your lines just start flow- ing and coming to you when you need to say them...hope- fully!” This play was held on April 21, 22 and 23. For A standing ovation reak a leg A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur’s Court was a science fiction comedy play. It re- volved around a young man named Hank who traveled back in time and visited King Arthur’s court. He modern- ized Camelot and saved the court from being overthrown by Queen Guenever’s sister Queen Morgan during his visit. Plays are an interesting way to meet people. Freshman Aura Metcalf, who is a new- comer to the plays says, “I had so much fun! Working with the seniors was great! I’ll miss all of them but I’ll be back.” The plays help a person to grow and show them a little peep behind the fantasy world. The next time you are in a theatre watching a play, wrap yourself up in a little of that fantasy and see the magic behind it all. He’s coming to, Mother! When the Connecticut Yankee arouses from unconsciousness, his family, played by Mindy Hoenes and Hope Insley, tried to awaken him. Brian Sander was in a dormant state after having been electrically shocked. Tie him up, Doctor! Finally realizing the truth about his crazy brother, Mortimer who was played by Earl Woodruff, is tied up by Brian Lamp- recht and George Ford in order to keep him from going to the police.

From the hallway you hear sounds of despair and distress. Later you hear the roar of an engine, the close of a car door, and the ring of a doorbell. As your frantic mother yells to you, cameras illuminate the house. Is this a wedding? Of course not, itis ONLY Prom! Every junior and senior awaits that one day in May, when it is their night. Ques- tions are asked throughout the hallways between classes: “Who are you going with? What color is your dress? Where are you eating?” The evening’s activities draw closer and closer with each passing tick of the clock. After eating dinner at the Radisson, you are ready for the big event. You see your friends stand- ing in line for pictures as your Classy Evenings. Candlelit dinners and conversation with close friends make Prom seem perfect.

Elegant restaurants and fancy dinners are part of Prom night. Seniors Trisha Miller and Greg Casey shared a virgin daiquiriat the Radisson. Prom Costs All that for just one night. Prom can be very expensive. Buying a dress, renting a tuxedo, and paying for dinner can all add up. A Prom dress could cost anywhere from $80 to $100. Senior Heather Smith spent $269 on her dress. “I worked across the street from Tiffany’s and I saw the dress sitting in the window and I just had to have it,” said Heather. Some popular places to buy a prom gown were Tiffany's, Susie’s, and Merry-Go- Round. Another expense for the Prom is renting a tuxedo. An average tux cost around $60 a might. With tails and other accessories it can a ee ee make the price go over $100. Once you're through paying for that you still have to pay for dinner. Many couples ate at the Radisson Hotel, Fisherman’s Wharf, and Ship’s Cabin. After all the expenses are paid and Prom might is over ask yourself, “Was it worth all that money?” Prom 33 Prom Awakening you from your —— daydream is the faint voice of ——junior class president, Vin- cent Gallerani, welcoming ev- eryone to Prom.

Although it is over, the image and memory of Prom will last with you and your friends for years to come. Oh What A Night! Every year a couple is nominated for Prom Court. Nominees Lenny Discenza and Suzi Wallace chatted with friends after the ceremony. Moments Together. Dancing prov- ides the chance to talk for those wish- ing to escape from the crowds.

Although Prom itself has come to an end, there is still much to be done afterward, includ- ing senior breakfast. With food and beverages in front of them, senior Donna Herbener and her escort watched those on the dance floor. ee oe ' Talent Show The lights slowly dimmed and the voices died down. The speaker, Mr. Tim Smith, welcomed the audience to The Second Annual PHS Talent Show and the program began. There was quite a variety of talent in the show. There was everything from piano play- ing to singing to rock bands. Eventually the judges had to narrow the 13 acts down to the best three. Senior Lisa Ferguson and junior Ange Ins- ley were awarded third place for their duet on the clarinet. They played various pieces from the Voxman Collection. Second place went to junior Jennifer Lewis. She sang “I Could Have Danced All Night,” which is a selection from My Fair Lady. Jumor Chris Fuller took first place. Chris played an original composition on the piano which he entitled, “Midnight Rain.” Soundsation, also known as the Jazz and Show Choir, did an opening act called “You There in the Back Row.” At the end of the pro- gram they performed the show which was used at competition. As the last musical note died down and the curtain fell, people started to leave. The Second Annual PHS Talent Show had come to an end. Another end-of-the-year event had been completed. The gym was filled with the echo of clapping as the se- niors entered two by two, wearing their well-earned caps and gowns. The seniors sat down in the seats provided for them on the gym floor. Following the seniors’ ex- ample, the underclassmen took their seats on the bleachers, and prepared fora long assembly. The student body looked forward to re- ceiving awards that they had worked hard all year to achieve. 36 Awards Assembly The awards assembly be- gan with an SCA presentation given by senior Matt Regan. Many awards were presented, ranging from athletics to aca- demics to perfect attendance. Among them was the Ex- change Club Student of the Year, which was awarded to senior Matt Regan.

The Valedictorian of the senior class, Mark lacobucci, and the Salutatorian, Monica Gaines, were recognized dur- ing the assembly with a stand- ing ovation by the student body and faculty. As the two and a half hour assembly progressed, the stu- dents clapped and cheered for their fellow students, in spite of the heat and stuffi- ness that seemed to hang in the gym. The awards assem- bly finally came to a close with the senior banner being tradi- tionally handed down to the junior class, from senior class president Andy Howard to junior class president Vinnie Gallerani. A standing ovation. Being accepted into the Bullpen is a distinctive honor. Senior Monica Gaines was the only student recipient. It’s about time.

Their instrumental talents psyched the students for the skits to follow during the Class of ’88 Senior Skit, titled “Television.” The practices and pre- parations for the show began over one month before the big day. The stage was dec- orated to appear as a wide screen TV with the words SONY across the top of the stage and controls on the wall. Carol Evans and George Ford portrayed a father and daughter spending the day watching TV and arguing over what to watch. The two seniors announced which skits were next and joked be- tween the shows. The entire skit contained several musical shows like Christy Lee on VH1, two rapping shows, and the girls of Hee Haw spreading the latest rumors. There were also skits of the students’ fav- orite shows, such as Divorce Court, Buglight Zone, and the Awards Show. Seniors ...fun inside and out enior Day Laura Ward and Bruce McEwen announced the re- cipients in each category of the Senior Superlatives and awarded them with some sort of trophy representing the trait they possess. After the skits were done, the seniors gathered on the stage to unite in the singing of the class song “Friends.” Jenny Oakes said following the skit, “The song represents what our class stands for and believes in.” Baccalaureate practice in the gym followed the skit but the pool party was held the following week because of rain. After all the English and Government exams were turned in, seniors filtered over to the public pool. There were hotdogs, chips, drinks, and cake for the seniors to snack on between football, frisbee, and chicken fights in the pool. As the school year came closer and closer to an end the students were able to enjoy the privleges of being a senior with the memory of a great senior day. Sun, Finally! On their second try, the seniors got to catch the rays at the public pool. Darren Defendeifer and Tracy Pugh watched the activities going on around them. Play Time. Water frisbee is a popular game for the seniors who braved the cold water. John Sylvia used the frisbee to throw water on an un- suspecting friend. 38 Senior Skit and Picnic Small Talk.

I had to rethink what was wrong. It was graduation, the goal I had set for myself 12 years ago. I had accomplished it, but what was this creepy sen- sation eating away at my soul? As I readjusted my eyes to the bright light coming through my bedroom window, I slowly regained my memory of the previous day’s tragedy, the unexpected car accident that took the life of classmate Gail Motter and seriously injured Amy Fisher. I felt as though graduation would never get underway. We were fortunate that Mother Nature was so kind to us by not having a cloud in the sky and enough breeze to keep everyone cool. As we lined up in our place for the walk in, I looked out on the football field and thought I'd never make it that far without passing out be- cause of nerves. Judge G. Duane Holloway was the special speaker that caught our attention with a recollection of his high school days at Poquoson many years before. Holloway summed up his speech by saying in re- memberance of Poquoson, “,..the skies are always blue and it only rains on warm sunny days when you want it tos After the diplomas were given out and the tassles turned, the recessional began. This time I cringed at the sight of the walk back to ...the skies are always blue emembering the gym. It was so short com- pared to the walk in. It was a reminder of all my high school years, dragging by slowly until my senior year, then picking up speed to the point of no slowing down. As my line began moving I felt two tears roll down my face. One I suppose was for my classmates that were not able to be with us, and the other was for all the work and good times in high school that were only memories now. In Memorium. In honor of classmate Gail Motter, the graduates wear black ribbons. Amy Hawkes helped Trey Umstead pin his ribbon to his gown. Almost Over. The list of graduates seems to never end. Cathy Van- Dervort approached the stage for her diploma as the line got one closer to the end. 40 Graduation LLL es ess ss seen Last Minute Jitters. The weather is always a factor at graduation.

That means no more homework, no more waking up at six o’clock EVERY morning, no more high school! Wait a minute. My high school days aren't completely over yet. I still have beach week to look forward to. It won't be long now — there’s the North Carolina state line. I wonder how this tradi- tion got started? Well, I know that my sister went to Nags Head after she graduated and that was 12 years ago. I’m sure things were really different then. There’s our cottage, we’re finally here! I can’t wart to see how we fit 13 girls into one cottage with all their luggage and only two bathrooms! Today wasn’t just an ordinary day at the beach. The most hilarious thing happened to T. J. Foy. He ventured out into the ocean to rescue a lost beach ball. As the ball got further and further away so did T. J]. The lifeguards weren't too happy to discover that they had to save him, all over a 99 cents ball! We also decided that we couldn’t walk by that haunted house one more time without going inside. The twin boy and girl who lived in that cottage were killed at the same time. He drowned and she was struck by lightening while flying a kite. It’s really an eerie place, especially at night! So much for a good nght’s sleep! I'll never get to sleep with all this noise. I can’t believe all these graduates are crashing at our cottage. This week really is more that just sun and fun. It’s one last chance for us all to spend time with each other and relax before we have to get back into our jobs — and then it’s off to col- lege! I'm really glad we have this week, but it makes me realize that I’m going to miss everyone...I'll probably even miss high school.......nah!

Trying to climb out of the pit of defeat that had been en- gulfing them, the football 46 Football team found it even harder to reach the next rung with their loss to Arcadia, 21-8. The confidence of a sure-win against Arcadia showed in the first half as they lead 8-0. The lead, however, didn’t last long as the Firebirds burned them for 21 points in the second half. “The loss of players and the inexperience of the youn- ger ones played a dominating role in the defeats we suf- fered,” Tracy Pugh said. The pit got even darker and darker as they lost to state-ranked York 23-0, and state-champions Tabb, 42-0. Northampton didn’t show any signs of relief as the team slipped further down losing 51-9.

The football team never made it any further up the ladder as they dropped the rest of their games to Tabb, Bruton, and Gloucester.

There’s a new wave, there’s an old wave. There’s a curly wave and a surfer wave. The new wave is in the cheerlead- ing squad, which now has a varsity and junior varsity squad for fall sports and a dif- ferent varsity and junior var- sity squad for winter sports. This change allows more girls to participate by forming two squads of twelve. The JV squad consists of freshmen and sophomores. The JV squad began their season with three hour prac- heer For Six tices in August. They prepa- red themselves for the up- coming football and basket- ball seasons. The cheerlead- ing squad was led by two cap- tains, sophomore Tara Whitney and freshman Van- essa Patterson. Since the squad was new they had to pull together to teach each other chants and cheers. They performed their new chants and cheers at the first JV football game on Sep- tember | at Gloucester. The JV football team prepared for this game and others that fol- lowed by practicing two hours a day from five to seven. “Although they lost this game, our kids got better and better. Even though they weren't winning games, it showed on the field,” said coach Don Ward. Steve Alexander said this about their second game against Tabb, “We played great in the second half and managed to score twice. They just scored too many times in the first half for us to re- cover.” Quarterback Jim Alexander agreed with him and said, “We came on strong near the end of the game but couldn’t quite seem to get it into the endzone. We were 1n- timidated by them in the first half and couldn’t quite re- cover.” Evan Bryant summed up the JV football season by say- ing, “Our season was a suc- cessful one because we learned and gained experi- ence about football and most of all we enjoyed it.” JV Football and Cheerleaders 57 The two opponents silently shook hands and braced themselves for the blow of the whistle and the chance to lunge at each other. This scene marked the start of another wrestling season. Wrestling is a tradition that has made a name for itself. No matter if it’s a dual meet, quad, or state, the community and the student body are al- ways there with their full sup- port. The wrestlers captured a P ower Play 16-0 record, which set the team with high expectations for the state tournament. The adoption of two new coaches set the wrestlers in vigorous training. The coaches motiva- ted the boys to keep them in condition for their weight class. The team consisted of 12 wrestlers, with a forfeit at Heavyweight.

The wrestlers captured first in the district, and second in the region. The team wrestled their way to the top, taking ten wrestlers to the state tourna- ment, where the team fin- ished third overall. Indi- vidual wins included Casey Irwin (98), Bubba Ferguson (132) and Jon Hirsch (138). Each took third place in their respective weight class.

They then separated into four groups and worked on the floor, beam, bars, and vault alternately. In December the girls leaped and tumbled their way to the first meet. The first meet was against Denbigh and York at York High School. The team placed second, only 1.6 points be- hind Denbigh. Individually, Alystra Little placed second all-around, with Amy Fisher behind her in third place. “The team improved every meet,” stated Coach Gemmill. “By staying optimistic and enthusiastic, we made it to districts and regionals, which were held together,” stated sophomore Stacey Philbeck. Alystra Little finished second on floor and third all-around. The team accumulated ninety-five points which put them in fourth place.

Sophomore Shawn Nadeau found his highlight when the team played Portsmouth Catholic, by hitting the win- ning basket. He had not scored a point the entire 31 minutes and 57 seconds of play. With three seconds showing on the clock and down 52-51, Nadeau showed his poise and gunned a six- footer, the winning basket. The most memorable per- sonal highlight would be Todd Lawson’s. He stands only 5 foot 10, but had a bigger appearance on the court this day. Lawson scored a career high 45 points against Portsmouth Catholic, breaking the school record for points scored in one game, and the new school rec- ord of three-pointers with 10. Chuck Sack recalls the most memorable highlight as a team. It was when they played York for a second time. “There was no individual who out-performed the others,” Sack stated. The Islanders were down by 30 points dur- ing one point in the game, but came back and gained more respect in the York River Dis- trict, losing only 74-68. Varsity Boys’ Basketball. Front to Back.

Tradition has changed and the varsity cheerleaders are no longer a squad of 20. There will longer be girls qualified to cheer on a varsity squad cheering for a JV game. Led by an enthusiastic new coach, the fall varsity cheerleaders began organizing for the new season. To start off the season, a professional cheerleader from the National Cheerlead- ers Association taught the 64 Cheerleading Revived Spirit squad many exciting routines and cheers, such as “Yes we’re moving,” “Let’s go,” and a spirit dance. When daily prac- tices began, coach Danette Zasmowich had several rou- tines of her own to teach, like the dance routine to “Tricky.” The squad got started right away On a new pom pon rou- tine and teaching the new members of the squad the old cheers. The girls had to be de- voted from the very begin- ning, since there were two football games and three bas- ketball games before classes began. Fall captains Lisa Shelton and Jennifer McGlohn pushed the squad throughout the season to encourage them to do their best. Jennifer McGlohn felt that, “The squad worked well together promoting enthusiasm and spirit throughout the school.” On November 10-17 an- other try-out was held for the winter cheerleaders. At 8 p.m. that Tuesday night, twelve lucky girls were cho- sen. Within the first week of practice two new captains were chosen, Amy Hawkes and Trisha Miller. Along with new captains there were als two new coaches. They wer Karen Shepherd and Lesli Ferguson. The winter cheerleader cheered for boys’ basketba and wrestling.

JV Basketball and Soccer 67 trive To Win The whistle blew, and the chase was on! I rolled for my life, with four pairs of muscle- bound legs in hot pursuit. Boom! The powerful kick of Chuck Sack sent me flying to the other end of the field, where I received another painful kick that sent me into the goal. Another point for my boys! The soccer season started out pretty well; my boys trampled Phoebus 2-1, and smeared Northhampton 16-0. But then, in a surge of bad luck, the guys lost a scrim- mage to Churchland 3-0 and a tournament to Cox 3-0. But these disappointments served only to spur my guys into ac- tion, and out of the next fif- teen games, we won eleven and tied one. My boys then went on to beat York 4-1, but lost to Tabb 2-1. This game that we were now in the midst of was amaz- ing. There were fifteen min- utes left in the second half, and we were tied with Glou- cester 0-0. Then an astound- ing sight had the shocked spectators to their feet. Just as it seemed that the game would end.in a tie, Richard Vaughan headed me froma corner-kick into the center of the goal, setting off a stun- ning string of five more goals over the course of the next ten minutes. The crowded stands went wild with cheers as we beat Gloucester 6-1. By this time, my boys were pretty confident, and it looked as though we just might secure the district or even the regional title. The guys’ first district game op- ponent was York, and was not a difficult one. We beat them 4-1. The second district game was against Tabb — an all- time rival. This game was one of the best yet. Tabb scored early on — in the first ten minutes — and held on until the last fifteen minutes of the second half. At this time, the score was evened up by player Kevin Weis. The score held steady ata tie, and it looked as though the game would go into over-time, but in the last few minutes, Tabb managed to push through the defense and win the game 2-1.

The game remained a tie through the end and went into overtime. It stayed tied throughout overtime, and the game went into sudden death. Still, neither team scored and we continued into the next phase — shootouts. It took two sets of shootouts — with five shots per team — for Tabb to win the game 2-1.

The cold winter chill is still in the air and the courts still have the last winter snow to be cleared from them. With defeats to only Mench- ville, Tabb and Franklin in Regionals, the season wasn’t a losing one. “We worked really hard this year and accom- plished a lot after losing five of the top six players. We still managed to be second in dis- trict and a trip to regionals,” said junior Mark Boucher. The team had to make this season a rebuilding year as they gained six new players on the team with three vet- erans. Junior newcomer Tray Matheson gave his thoughts on this by saying, “Tennis was anf UnmexDcrience.-Goach Spain wasn’t only a coach to us, but also an instructor to improve on our tennis skills.” The most successful indi- viduals on the boys’ team were the number one doubles team of Pat Anderson and troke It Bruce McEwen. Anderson and McEwen won district and regional competition and placed second at the state finals. On individual competi- tion, Anderson was number one seeded on the team, los- ing only twice during the reg- ular season, both times to Tabb’s Kevin Kittrell. He made it all the way to the finals in both district and re- gional tournaments, but lost to Kevin Kittrell again in very close but decisive matches. Sa a ht ti ti i is ia Be pi Smashing Great Hits. To get the proper angle on the ball, senior Pat Anderson positions himself to smash his York opponent’s return. In his match against the Falcons, Anderson won number one singles 6-1, 6-1.

His skills and quickness weren't enough to catch the Tigers as the team lost 1-8. The team lost the district tournament to Tabb, but was runner up, which propelled them into regionals. They en- tered competition against Franklin and lost 5-4. “The matches were too close, I don’t think the season should have ended here,” said Mark Boucher. Pat Anderson shared his attitude by saying, “The hard work paid off in the end for everyone.” Boys’ Tennis Record 8-4 Menchville York Tabb Gloucester Bruton Bethel York Tabb Gloucester Bruton Warwick Franklin Boys’ Tennis 73 “Attention girls’ tennis team, practice will be held in the gym after school due to the bad weather conditions.” Un- like the unpredictability of the weather, the tennis team’s victories became very predict- able.

The season opened with a match against Franklin on home court. For each match the top six players of the week would play and Coach Win- stead picked the three dou- bles teams that would play. After winning eleven of the thirteen matches the team ad- vanced to the regional tour- nament. The sun was shining, there were no clouds in the sky, and absolutely no chance for rain. The girls were excited as well as nervous. They were at the regional match, about to play Forest Glen. The singles teams played, followed by the doubles teams. The score- keeper tallied and re-tallied the scores of the close match. After an anxious wait, the scorekeeper announced the regional champions. Poquo- son defeated Forest Glen with a score of 5-4.

Girls’ Tennis 75 T ake The Field From the beginning of the season it looked like York would be our number one contender. Grueling, long practices and plenty of extra effort got us in shape for our first game with York, on Sat- urday, April 16. Coach John Kain said, “This game was just a skir- mish in a big war. We have to face them twice more this year.” Determined to win this game we really strove to try our best. Even though we lost to York, senior Kevin Burton, our number one hitter, led the team to a 7-2 record at midseason. In 29 appear- ances Kevin collected 16 hits, including three doubles, two triples and a homerun. Besides the game with York we still had an outstanding record in the district of four wins and | loss. We found that we must meet York one more time for the district tournament. For our last game of the season we defeated the Falcons with a 4- 1 victory and won the York River District Championship.

Mr. Dave Nelson’s govern- ment classes set up and held a mock election. Students, grades 9-12, had the oppor- tunity to voice their opinions for either the Democratic or Republican candidates for party nomination. Students in his class were assigned the duty of finding out the candidates’ statistical background (age, family, education, religion), as well as their political background, which included platform is- sues. After this task was com- pleted fact sheets were made up for the primary. These fact sheets about the candi- dates were posted through- out the school, giving all the students a better understand- ing and brief history of the candidates to be elected. Sen- iors Len Discenza and Matt Regan were in charge of pub- licity for the election and helped organize this mock el- ection. Spirit and support were shown by the students who participated. Seniors had the greatest turnout, while the juniors had the lowest turn- out. The Republican candi- date George Bush held the majority of the votes, fol- lowed by the Democratic can- didate Michael Dukakis. Many students found this a unique opportunity to ex- press their opinions. “It gave students a sense of politics and kept us in touch and aware of important issues of the government,” replied Len Can I have your autograph? Politics is a very important issue to society. General John Marsh, Secretary of the Army, spoke of his accomplishments and experience in the government. 82 Social Studies Discenza. The mock election gave students a chance to partici- pate in election proceedings, even though they may not have been of age. Aside from school-oriented activities, Mr. Nelson’s second hour government class hosted the “Scared Stiff’ program for safe driving. Numerous police officers from the Hampton Roads area ob- served Officer Devries as he taught the class in order for them to conduct similar classes at other high schools. This program was con- ceived in May, 1979, in Rock- ville, Maryland. It doesn’t preach to the students. It tells them in cold, hard terms what can happen when they mix al- cohol, drugs, or a combina- tion of both and driving. Of- ficer Devries gave facts con- cerning traffic accidents and deaths, saying that “eleven teens die and 360 are injured every day.” Senior Richard Kist said, “The program Scared Suff will make you think twice about drinking and driving.” Economics classes did not stick strictly to the books either. Miss Rebecca Marsh’s first and third period classes made up commercials to learn more about advertising. Both classes had groups of three or four people in each and had to come up with a product to sell. After they thought of a product, they made a pictured advertise- ment, and then filmed the commercial on video tape. Senior Suzi Wallace re- members that one of t he more interesting commercials was for “Wasto Beer, where the actors threw in a plug for the surfboard at the end.” Mock Primaries HOW MANY VOTED?

The teacher is iy rambling on about some chico named Paco while one fourth of the class snores, one fourth of the class nods, blurting out a “si” or “oul,” and one half just stares into space with a bewildered expression upon their faces. Whether in Ist or 5th year of study of a foreign language, most of the students experi- ence a time of utter confu- sion. The students could be stumbling over the pronunci- ation of a fifteen letter word, or desperately trying to keep pace with the teacher and the homework assigned. The language barrier, how- ever, does not prevent for- eign exchange students from visiting and living in the United States. Students Elke Muller and Mieke Wink came from Germany and Holland to spend a year of study in America. Despite the initial cultural shock and homesick- ness, they felt that their visit was both rewarding and en- joyable. “In Germany, a foreign language is required so I took six years of English. I came to the United States for a 3 week vacation in 1984, but wanted to learn more about life here. I didn’t just want my six years of study to go down the tube, so I came here. School here means a lot to me and even though it’s different I spend a lot of time involved,” says Elke Muller about her life in the U.S. Off in another country. Besides studying, listening is an essential part in learning. Sophomore Neil Lambi- otte carefully absorbed one of Mrs. Nancy Rowley’s 3rd hour Spanish lectures. Trial and error.

The weddings, a traditional part of the Family Living cri- teria, take place in April. The students are responsible for handling and financing this mock event with their mock budget. Vows, invitations, flowers and even the recep- tion are planned by the stu- dents. A bride and a groom are chosen from the students. The remaining students act out their “mock” parts as bridesmaids, ushers, best man, maid and matron of honor, flower girl, ring bearer, and even the nervous parents of the bride and groom. This time-consuming, hec- tic event illustrated to the students the time and money involved in planning a wed- ding. “This mock wedding showed me the time, money and problems involved with planning a wedding. It actu- ally makes you think twice about getting married,” said Mychele Horner. That takes the cake. The reception that follows the “mock” wedding is quite an event. Seniors Matt Phelps and Shirley Krieger (Dagwood and Blondie Bumstead), fed each other a piece of their “mock” wedding cake. Where’s the duck hunter? This “mock” Poquoson wedding was unique.

Besides the Peninsula Fine Arts contest, the Langley AFB Officers’ Wives’ Club sponsored a 1988 scholastic Achievement Award. Students eligible for these awards had to be candidates for high school graduation in the class of 1987-1988. Senior Jennifer Ambrose met all the requirements for this contest and received $1000 in the Creative Arts category. The money is to be used for the college of her choice. Get a piece of the rock. Students put their creativity to work. In Mrs. Marie Sproull’s Art II class, sophomore Cynthia McClelland demonstrated her sculpturing techniques by chisel- ing away at her soon-to-be sculpture.

The band always puts forth its best effort. Tommy Holloway paid close attention to his music while performing for teachers and students during the Christmas performance. That’s entertainment. All the effort finally pays off. Brian Lamprecht, Lenny Discenza, and Matt Phelps put on the finishing touches of “the twelve days of Christmas” during the chorus program preceeding the Christmas holiday. 90 Band and Chorus i the sweet sound of beautiful music Do the terms: 6 8 time, bal- lad, and slur mean anything to you? In band and chorus these are common, everyday words used in class. Have you ever wondered what all those people are doing after school, hanging around the Commons? Chances are, some of them are waiting for 2:30 to roll around, so they can go to sev- enth hour band. Seventh nour band allows a class period for those students who wish to participate in band, dut can’t fit it into their busy schedules. Not only does band have extras hours allotted for tight schedules, but the chorus does also. The Jazz choir practices on Monday nights for two hours in addition to in-school practices. Before performances, both the band and chorus have numerous after school rehearsals. All the extra time and effort pays off when the seasonal con- certs come around. Besides performing, the band hosted a professional band from Virginia Beach. This group entertained the entire student body through two assemblies on March 17. The choruses don’t sing for Poquoson alone, they travel to churches throughout Poquoson at various times during the year. Occasionally, both groups take trips. The Jazz choir went to Lunchburg for a com- petition and later went to Washin gton D.C. for a show choir workshop. The band went to Winchester to com- pete in two parades, along with participating in the Gloucester Christmas parade. Not only do both the band and chorus perform as groups but also have mem- bers of each compete to at- tend regional competitions. The band had 9 members while the chorus had 23 attend regionals. The chorus also had 2 members attend Honors’ choir, Suzi Wallace and Christy Lee, and 2 attend All-Virginia, Shawn Fertitta, and Jenny Lewis, along with 2 alternates, Earl Woodruff and Chris Fuller. The concentration. Frustrations are forgétten. Juniors Robin Thrift and Vicki Mendez and sophomore Amy Penwell play their flutes during the Christmas Band Ensemble. Take each step at a time. Love can be communicated in many ways. Senior Scott Laske communicated during “Love in Any Language” with sign language. Band and Chorus 91 That’s the way the ball bounces. Most consider physical education a class involving only sports. Freshman Michelle Ketterman proved this con- cept to be false by her demonstration with a cage. LU EEEEEEEEET Here you are. Rules and regulations are an essential part to driving. Dick Tyson handed senior Richard Hill in- structions and explained the routine of the on-the-range section of the test. All buckled up. Anyone who has ever taken a driving test will surely agree that the on-the road test is intimidat- ing and the more difficult. In the driver’s seat, sophomore Mark Vlaun took control of the wheel and began his on-the-range driving test. 92 Physical Education And the contestants are... The ability -to drive takes a great measure of safety and patience. Sophomores Alystra Little, Paul Goddin, Mark Viaun and senior Richard Hill anx- iously awaited their scores from the Safe Driving Contest. LET'S GO _ Do you know the rules of ‘the road? Do you realize that Driver’s Education has any- thing to do with all this? Well ‘now you do. A Safe Driving Contest was held for the Newport News and Poquoson school systems. The city competition was held on March 19th at John B. Todd Stadium in Newport News. It was held specifically for students who had either taken the Driver’s Education ‘course this year or over the summer. A maximum of five students from each school, selected by the Driver’s Edu- cation teachers, were allowed to participate. Sophomores Alystra Little, Mark Vlaun, Paul Goddin, and senior Richard Hill were the chosen four. Despite the dreary, cold, rainy day, the contest was conducted. The three main categories, a knowledge test, a range test, and an on-the- road test awaited the eager, yet nervous participants. Each test was worth 600 points for a perfect score of 1800 points. change from the routine Senior Richard Hill placed overall third with his score of 1448. Richard Hill and Alystra Little held the two highest scores from Poquo- son and went on to compete in the state competition, held April 16th, also at John B. Todd Stadium. Prizes were awarded to stu- dents with the highest scores. “TI found the contest a new ex- perience. The range test was the hardest part, but the on- the-road test was easier and more exciting,” recalled Alystra Little. Physical Education 93 4 JU it’s a world of labs and exploration What are the three words that strike fear in the eyes of every student? What one thing is always put off to the very last minute? The Science Fair Project. Science can be one of the most frightening subjects in high school; the main reason for this is the Science Fair Project. The Science project is often a procrastinated, time-con- suming project. Many stu- dents put their social lives on hold drastically that last week before the deadline. There are always those stu- dents who actually start work- ing on their project months before they are due. These students are usually the ones who walk away with the rib- bons. The winner for the Sci- ence Fair was Frank Heezen, who took best in show with his project “A New Generation AI.” Second place went to Brian Frahm for his project on “Backyard Antibiotics.” Labs are also an important part of science. Mrs. Peggy Garner woke her Ist hour physics class by saying, “Today, class, we are going to do an experiment with shoot- ing guns!” Then she went into more detail about the experi- ment. A velocity of sound lab was conducted, using a blank gun to calculate the speed of sound. “It was nice to get out- side for a while, especially since it was such a beautiful day,” said senior Scott Laske. Even though labs are a part of the science criteria, they can be both exciting and educa- tional. Science is not only projects and labs. Take for example the field trip the advanced bi- ology and chemistry classes took to Virginia Marine Sci- ence Museum. On April 14th, advanced bio and chem students awoke bs hee ee Be eee Tuo snsrsttid is enoloailagA Sayer ty | } 3 ZaigMA bsiorpsini 10 v to the feeling of relief because they knew they would not be participating in their regular everyday classes. Instead they would be whisked off into a world of exotic marine life. The students were on their own to explore the unique ex- hibits. Junior Troy Miller ex- pressed the opinion of most of the students who attended the field trip. “My favorite ex- hibit was the aquarium that ran the whole length of the wall.” Senior Trae Umstead summed up the day’s events by saying, “This was a worth- while fieldtrip, I didn’t mind at all missing a day of school.” As time goes by. A Science Fair exhi- bition can not only be a me of excite- ment, but it can also be tiresome. Se- nior Dirk Manski patiently awaited the end of the day. Watch out? Chemistry is a class that involves laboratory participation. Senior Tray Umstead cautiously lit his bunsen burner in preparation for Es ; i a precipitate experiment. 94 Science precip D | This is a stick up! Physics class is not only a challenge but also exciting. Seniors Matt Regan and B.J. Book- walter took time out from the serious- ness of a velocity experiment while Physics teacher Mrs. Peggy Garner explained the process. Ready, aim, fire. Rather than for de- fense, guns are being used for edu- cational purposes. Senior Amy Ba- vacqua cautiously awaited the signal to shoot her gun in the Physics ex- periment of Mrs. Peggy Garner’s classes.

It is a place to spend six hours of the day enclosed in one build- ing, aimlessly wandering the halls, looking for the next class where vegetation and sleeping seem to be the only exercise for many. There are, however, those who stand out from the crowd, out from the building. These students are those who attend Magnet School. Magnet School is an in- structional program held at the New Horizons Technical Center, offering college accredited courses in Science and Technology. Competi- tion is close and a high GPA and demonstration of excel- lence are a must. Students attend classes either in the morning or afternoon, for two to three periods of the day. Classroom teaching and learning are essential tools of knowledge for the classes. However, there is also out- side, independent study through research investiga- tions, reading literature of the field, and application of knowledge through papers and projects. For students attending Magnet School, work is not finished when the class ends. Each student serves in a men- torship program, exploring his specific study working in a research laboratory. Ami VanDeventer, who works ina veterinary clinic, said, “The work experience is really good. I want to be a veterinar- ian so I’m learning more about the field for my future studies. The best thing about the entire program though is the different attitude of the people there.” To offer their expertise] and experience, the Langley Research Center and NASA} serve as partners to the men- torship, giving students first hand experience in the field of electronics and engineer- ing. Magnet School clearly is not for everyone. The life ofa Magnet School student can be tiresome and trying at times. For those interested in pursu- ing a career in a scientific field, however, the work 1s a challenge, but it is rewarding. Get a grip. Many experiments and demonstrations are performed in class at the Magnet school. Juniors Brad Sneed and Randy Davis, along with fellow students, stepped back in surprise of the experiment. Time to relax. Despite the increase curriculum, the social atmosphere the Magnet school is more relaxe: While he waited for class to begi’ junior Brad Sneed conversed with! fellow student. t 96 Magnet School set it right. Magnet school gives stu- tents who excel in the field of science he opportunity to further their ‘nowledge. Junior Randy Davis yautiously prepared a test tube as a tlassroom lab. Magnet School 97 98 Computers Taking the challenge. Along with bookwork, computer students are re- quired to create programs. Juniors Trae Matheson and Darlene Johnson endlessly worked on an assignment as part of Mrs. Gail LaRue’s computer class. The finishing touches. The push of a few buttons solves everything. Senior Alice Ann Carmints completed her program in Mrs. Gail LaRue’s com- puter class. technology for computers If you think you have a hard life and have to remem- ber many things, just try be- ing me for a day. I’ma disk, a computer disk that is. I spend countless hours inside my partner TRS 80 computer. We work together to try to figure out what in the heck these so called “computer students” are trying to do. Sometimes I think they left their micro chip, oh, excuse me, their brains at home. We have accomplished many things. The students have typed in some strange commands, such as a snail lay- ing a slimy trail across the screen. If you think that is bad, guess who saves this thing? That’s right, me! I also have other strange images saved on me. Monsters, Christmas trees, St. Patrick’s Day hats, numbers flashing across the screen, and other weird programs that really don’t make any sense. Away from the fun and games, we occasionally do get down to business. Boy! These students have a hectic work- load. So many programs to create and so little time. I know they get confused and aggravated from time to time, but they sure stick with it until it is finished and works right. Even though being a disk is a hard life, I guess it is worth it. The determination of these students is remarkable and I will sure miss them. What an accomplishment! Comput- ers aren’t all fun and games. Seniors Erick Grube and Conard Hamilton relaxed at the sight of their latest graphic success in Mrs. Gail LaRue’s 6th hour computer class. Let it roar. The lastest in computer technology and sound was demon- strated during an assembly for all band and computer students. Computers 99 VW i A A trials and tribulations of English Are you one of the few students who like to write for pleasure? Do you find a sym- bolic meaning in poems, short stories, novels or articles? Would you mind at all becom- ing famous for your literary works? Mrs. Bonnie Fay’s 3rd per- iod creative writing class sponsored a program called Writers Forum ’88 which was held on Tuesday, March 22. The program consisted of a panel of four experienced writers. Mary Spiri was chosen to speak about her ex- 100 English perience with writing novels. She has a novel in its third reading, waiting to be pub- lished. Kathy Cawthon is a free lance writer who has had arti- cles published in several fa- mous magazines. She ex- plained that pursuing a career in free lance writing was very difficult. Talking about the art of feature writing was a writer from the Virginia-Pilot Ledger- Star, Mike D’Orso. He had won numerous regional and national awards for writing. A very popular poet,- Jay Paul, was there to answer questions from students about his knowledge of poetry. He has had over 140 poems published in various magazines. Perhaps one of these writer’s first literary experi- ence came from writing a re- search paper for an English class. Maybe it was then that he first realized that he wanted to make a career out of writing. Research papers are a very common and touchy subject around students. But some- Poetic advice. Students have the chance to ask questions of guest speakers at assemblies. After the Writer’s Forum, Dr. Jay Paul accep- ted questions from the audience. Can we talk? Terror strikes some when speaking to an audience. Mrs. Kathy Cawthon, a free-lance writer, found it not difficult to speak of her career. times the students, who plan to go to college, don’t realize how important they actually are. If you think English re- search papers are loaded on you now, just wait. You will have plenty more to write for English courses in college. So the next time a teacher tells you to write a reasearch pa- per, Just grin and bear it. And remember, it is a good experi- ence and will help you in your future college plans. Perhaps one day you'll be a literary writer too. | Guess who? To enhance students snowledge, some teachers go out of heir way. English teacher Mr. John Forrest dressed up as Charles Dickens for a day after his class read jome of Dickens’ works. Creative writing contest The creative writing class held a contest for any students in- terested in writing. There were several stories and poems sub- mitted for the contest. There were two categories; short story and poems.

What sizes does it come in? How much does it cost? When will I get it? What flavors do you have? What is it? Candy bars, boxer shorts, Easter bunnies, sweatshirts, pom pons, mes- sages, tee shirts, and more candy. You name it, we sold it. Making money for a club or organiza- tion is important. Money is needed in order to buy necessities, make trips, and most of all, pay debts. Different organi- zations held fundraisers in order to meet their needs. Clubs such a Health Careers, National Honor Society, Key Club, and yearbook held dances with hopes to make a profit. “Most dances do not go over well, but with such a good turnout at the Home- coming dance, the only thing NHS could do was make money,” said senior Darren Defendeifer. tep right up lets make a deal The junior class, knowing that prom was on its way, sold Islander boxer shorts, mums for homecoming, and candy. Junior Dori Tasillo said, “Selling the boxer shorts was a neat fundraiser because it was something different and something we can keep.” The sophomores also got on the ball. They had a car wash and two candy sales. Usually the freshmen are not worried about money, but they decided to get an early start and sell candy messages for St. Patrick’s Day. On March 3, something new was going to happen. Every student involved in a varsity or JV sport was called to the forum for a special assembly. The goal: to sell ten items per student. Such items sold were party trays, candy, and decora- tive cannisters. The money that was made went towards new uniforms for teams, the weightroom, and many other items that needed to be purchased for the athletic teams. The senior class made a good profit by selling the class shirts and sweatshirts. Kristen Chaney said, “Selling the shirts and sweatshirts is a good fundraiser. It is a good senior moment that will last, and everyone wants to buy them.” Fundraisers not only benefit the school but they also help those who really need it. The SCA held the Christmas Fund from December 9-18. Together the students raised $4100. The money was split between the Children’s Hospital of the Kings’ Daughters and to the needy families in Poquoson. SCA vice-presi- dent Bonny Rollins said, “I think it’s good that we can raise money for people who really need it, and have fun doing it all at the same time.” The Real Challenge. Choosing between Pepsi and Coke can be a tough decision. Juniors Dani Bellis, Jennifer O’Donnell and Julie Laske soon found this out when they took “The Challenge.” KEY CLUB UNDERCLASSMEN (F-B).

Should we have a canned food drive? Should we have a fund raiser? Many different clubs work for the community. These clubs have sponsored and participated in many public service activities. Whether it be raising money for charitable organizations, those in need, or helping the children and the el- derly, they have lent a helping hand. The Key Club helped bring happiness into many people’s lives.

Why do you want to stay after school when you can go home, get something to eat, and curl up in front of ithe T.V.? There are many reasons why different people join clubs. Some people join them because th eir friends are in them too, and others join just for the sake of having something to do, but many join clubs so they can meet new friends. Senior Kathy Moore said, “I joined FBLA OFFICERS (L-R). Robin Diggs, Victoria Wilson, Sharon Manor, Kristi Messier, Gerry Jessup. but why? FHA because it gives me a chance to know a larger variety of people than I would in my classes.” Senior Christy Lee agrees. “I enjoy getting to know people in a different atmosphere other than the classroom.” If they aren’t making new friends, they are simply enjoying themselves with their old ones. Senior Connie Little likes Rifles because, “I can be with my friends. I get a chance to talk to people that I usu- ally don’t see in school.” Senior Melanie Kirsch has pretty much the same op- inion. “I’m in band because it gives me something to do after school, and I enjoy being with my friends.” So the next time you wonder why peo- ple enjoy staying after school for clubs, join a club and find out just how much fun they can be.

Senior Michelle Woodard stated that, “Getting a newspaper done on time is a lot of hard work. Once we finish an issue, it’s time to start on the next. We take maybe two days off to plan the next issue and that’s all.” Although getting the literary maga- zine, yearbook, and newspaper done on time is very hard work, seeing the fin- ished product is always worth all the time it takes.

The thing is though, there is more to band than the instrumentalists. A big part of the band consists of pom-pons, rifles, flags, major- ettes, and colorguard. Being on an auxiliary squad takes a lot of time and effort. In order to go on the spring trip with the band, each auxiliary member must do her own part. Junior Charlene Adams and sopho- more Amy Penwell are members of the rifle squad. They both feel that, “It’s a really hard, time-consuming job, but we really enjoy it after we have won first Double Fun. Carrying the band banner is a tiring job but twin sisters Lisa and Sharon Tyas always seem to show a smile when they march. fe 4 | TPs te ly | Inet t Ly FLAGS (F-B).

It’s a lot of work but it pays off in the end.” Throughout the year, the band and auxiliaries competed in many different competitions. The biggest competition was the spring trip to Winchester. Senior Carol Evans said, “A lot of pre- paration goes into preparing for Win- chester. We started practicing before Spring break and we didn’t go to Win- chester until the end of April.” COLOR GUARD (F-B). Lori Topping, Cynthia Gurganus, Myra Hautz, Melanie Kirsch, Amy Morgan, Aura Metcalf. A big part of preparing for a competi- tion is getting along with the others on the squad with you and working together. With this determination, the auxiliaries go to a competition feeling good about themselves and their rout- ine. Junior Tracy Butts feels that, “It’s enjoyable to see everyone working so hard and to see how far we come during the year.” Although practice can be hectic at times, all the work is worth it when the band and auxiliaries walk, or rather march, away with a first place trophy under their arm.

Tidewater Challenge, Debate, SCA Officers 113 | Primo. Tops. Numero uno. Every- body wants to be number one. The name of the game is competition. Believe it or not, many clubs compete. The Tidewater Challenge team is always in true competition with many other area high schools. Coached by Mr. ‘Tom Fay, they practice after school in order to pre- pare themselves. They have to answer mind boggling questions, both quickly and accurately. When asked how the team handles competition Mr. Fay re- plied, “Both school and individual pride is on the line!” Everyone sat on the edge of their seats as the announcer called out the trophy class winners. We had not been called for first place. Could we actually be good enough for trophy class? Butterflies were on the rampage as the announcer was still WS SO OF a ee ae OO OR ANP bo a i ae ne ee ‘ ompetiition for all reasons naming schools. Tears of happiness fell as Mrs. Dott VanDervort learned that the yearbook won trophy class...the best you can be. “Because we were the third from the last announced, I thought I could not stand waiting to hear if we had won trophy,” said Mrs. VanDervort. The school newspaper also received this top honor. Dori Tasillo accepted the award as editor-in-chief of the Island Echo. She stated, “After they called all the first place ones, I was hoping it was either second place or trophy. I was really glad it was trophy, I think Brenda Jones worked hard for it.” Though the trip to the University of Virginia was long, and some of the classes may not have been that enticing, the trip was well worth it. There is also competition within the school. This type requires filing peti- tions, hanging posters, and writing a speech that must be presented to one’s class. Then comes the waiting. Oh! That is the worst part! It could be none other than running for office. These positions include SCA offices, class offices and the many offices available through different clubs. What does one do when they are in competition with a friend? “It is not a good idea to run against a friend, but when Lisa Shelton and I ran against each other things went well. Our friendship was not on the line,” said junior Angela Clausen. Butif you are not primo, tops, numero uno, do not worry. Not everybody can be. Just be the best you can. Good Answer, Good Answer. With difficult ques- tions and quick replies, the tidewater challenge team thinks diligently. Team members Karen Kolet, Leonard Discenza, Michael Leatherman, and Matthew Shuster converse with each other be- fore giving their final answer. SCA (SENIORS) (F-B).

Senior Scott Laske said, “We per- formed for the Hampton Junior Wo- men’s Club at Christmas. They had in- vited some mentally disabled people to listen and watch.” Junior Jenny Lewis stated, “In March, we went to Lynchburg and competed against many other show choirs.” Senior Susie Wallace commented, “April 23 and 24, we went to Washington D.C. for a show choir workshop and a rating. It was a lot of fun to see the other groups perform.” The Jazz Choir has also taken part in the talent show, sung at several churches, and at the Bland Com- petition. The Swing Choir has also performed at many competitions and concerts. Junior Nancy McCuistion said, “We went to a competition sponsored by Busch Sing A Song. With strong voices and happy hearts the mixed chorus gave a solid performance. This Christmas tradition always seems to boost the spirit of the crowd. of music Gardens that took place at Bruton.” The Swing Choir sang at a Christmas concert, a winter concert, and an end of the year concert. They also sang at many churches and a Women’s Club. The Islander Marching Band marched in several parades. They went to Urbanna, Winchester, and Gloucester. The band also performed in many Po- quoson parades, such as the Homecom- ing parade, the Christmas parade, the Fireman’s parade, and the Seafood Fes- tival. Junior drum major Robert Kimbrel stated, “The band performed very well this year, winning many Best Overall and First Place awards.” The Concert Band played in several concerts. At the ceremony at Yorktown, flags from various countries were raised. The band played the French and Ameri- can national anthems before a speech was given in honor of the bicentennial of Yorktown. The band also performed in many concerts at the high school. The Jazz Band played at many dif- ferent locations. They performed at both spring and winter concerts, and also at pep rallies. In March, the Jazz Band went to Langley Air Force Base and played at a retirement ceremony. They also went to Kecoughtan High School to play at the opening ceremony of the Spe- cial Olympics. Junior Bernadette Wilson said, “When we played the opening cere- mony, it made us feel really good be- cause they appreciated us.” The Jazz Band also went to a Jazz Fes- tival in May. Both the band and chorus were active in many concerts and performances, and they showed their talent to audiences wherever they performed. SOPHOMORE CLASS OFFICERS (L-R).

It was a terrible day but you ade it! “Oh no, it’s 7:25 and they haven't picked me up yet!” At that moment you hear the familiar beep of a horn. You run out into the cold morning air and mumble hello. You rush into your first period class just ahead of the bell. As you plop into your seat you see your teacher giving you the eye for even thinking about being late to Class. You make it to the rest of your classes on time but you left your math book at home, along with the homework that your dog ate. For some reason your math teacher didn't believe that one. The day finally comes to a close as you hear that last bell ring. You shuffle out the door, ready for a weekend with your friends. As you remember your day, you see that it wasnt that bad. You realize that everything is WHAT YOU MAKE IT! MAKE THE DECI- SION. Part of Athletic Director Dave Nelson’s daily job is deciphering sports information.

Tim Blankenship, “A Naval archi- tect or a charter captain.” John Sylvia, “Engineer or an architect. Or maybe even a photographer!” Susan Gar- dner, “A Nurse.” Cliff Rowe, “An investment maker.” Randy Glass, “Computer Pro- grammer.” Brian Lamprecht, “A lawyer, then a politician.” Stacy Overbay, “A physical therapist.” What do you want to be when you grow up? This question may sound the same at any age, but to seniors, it is a question they must think about every day. Take It Easy. Physics is an exhausting class.

You then locate your friends to finalize your plans for the weekend. Poquoson is a small town, planning a fun-filled week- end takes time. “We usually plan our weekend on Mon- day. Like deciding who is going out with who, and then if a party pops up on Friday whatever turns you on or earlier in the week, we are set,” comments senior Val Hatton. It is 6:00 p.m., same day. After you change your clothes six times, you finally decide you are ready to go. Rounding up your crew takes at least an hour, and after that is done, well, “Weekend, here we come!” Weekend? But just what does one do all weekend in Poquoson? Come on, it is a small town. There is no movie theater or mall. You have to “go over town” for such en- tertainment. Most seniors can be found ata party, a dance or indulging themselves at McDonald’s or Hardee’s. If they are not found in these places, they can be seen riding up and down Wythe Creek Road, or, as they say, “cruise the strip.” Some seniors have jobs and can not find time for a week- end. “For the most part, on the weekends I work! If lever get any time off from work I spend it with my friends,” says senior Yvette Freeman. Dances, parties, working, sleeping, and cruising. So many choices to make. what- ever your choice, remember, weekends are made for fun. Almost Gone. Reality hits hard when the senior banner is displayed.

After you open your book- let, you break up the mono- tony and exclaim, “They want the definition of pteridoid! This must be a joke! Who thinks up these words anyway?! ” Many seniors feel that the tests are unfair and should not be the basis for college ac- ceptance. “I do not think that the SAT should keep you from going to a certain col- lege you want to go to,” said senior Scott Curtis. Senior Jimmy Miskell agreed with Scott and added, “I think they were hard. I also think that there is a lot of luck involved in your score because you guess so much.” The SAT consists of six sec- tions; three sections on verbal and three sections on math. The highest score one can re- ceive is 1600. Rarely do students score even a 1550. Those who do, however, can pack their bags for Harvard, Princeton, or any of the other Ivy League schools. Colleges such as the Uni- versity of Virginia and The College of William and Mary only require 1200. “Twelve hundred! Yeah, right!” There are also the less com- petitive schools such as Rad- ford, Longwood, and Christ- opher Newport that do not require applicants to break the 1,000 point mark. Teachers often feel the same as students. Mary End- erson, a teacher and SAT supervisor at Hampton High said, “Colleges weigh them too heavily. It is a real dis- advantage to those students who do not test well.” Guidance counselor Mrs. Ginny Napier said, “ It is a good way of looking at students from different back- grounds and different high schools, but some students do not test well. For those who do not test well, itis better for the colleges to look at their acad- emics and activities. Since the SAT is so dif- ficult, one usually benefits by taking them more than once.

You eat, drink, sleep, and dream or fear about your future. For those who were accepted to college early, the anticipation is over. The others who waited to mail numerous applications are getting tired of waiting. Of the seniors who were asked the question, “What is your perception of what col- lege will be like?”, most feel that it will be a chance to prove that they are respon- sible enough to live on their own. Marcie Saulman anti- cipates that college will be, “One of the few ways to avoid working for a living.” Michael Park agrees. Some students, such as Leigh Barr feel, “It will be a total change from what I’m used to, but it will be a definite improvement.” Most of the seniors inter- viewed feel that college will be a way of getting out from par- ental control and living on their own. “It will be my ch- ance to prove that I can be re- sponsible and still have a good time,” said Amy Bevaqua. A few students are quite ready to party. Bruce McEwen sees college as, “an adventure.” Darren Defendeifer ex- presses it as “wild!” Aside from being on her own, and getting ready to have fun, Jenny Bryant says college will be, “an experience meant to alter our lives, one meant to learn about our- selves, and have fun. How to grow both mentally a nd psy- chologically.” A few students expect to widen their hori- zons. Deanna Gregory feels that college will be, “our first chance to do what we truly want to do.” Some of the seniors have been ready for college since ninth grade, while others won't be ready until they are in their college dorm or apartment and realize that they actually are on their own. Then they will start making their own decisions and being responsible for themselves. We will see. . . What will col- lege be like? Ho Ho Ho!

I can still remember us fingerpainting that day be- fore Christmas break and we decided to use each otker for paper.” “I thought Mrs. Jones would kill us!” “T thought Santa wouldn't come.” Many seniors have grown up here together. Some have moved away because of mili- tary reasons, or just because, and come back. Some have been here since birth, or as long as they can remember. Many would say they have ——- _ , . . a i f a ie § 128 Seniors emories remember when... been here long enough. Most of their thoughts are on Friday night dates and the get together afterwards, butif they think back to their young and innocent days when everybody had “cooties” and the only thing that mattered was afternoon cartoons, many wonderful and funny thoughts come back. When asked what one of her fond memories was, Tracy Kennedy replied, “During sixth grade, Lisa Shelton and I were in a fight at her house. I was in the shower and she wouldn’t give me a towel so that I could get ” out. Alice Ann Carmines re- members, ‘In the first grade I got in a lunchbox fight with another guy and [| had to sit in the dog house which was under a table.” As graduation approaches, seniors will be remembering many thoughts of school days. Not only the last four years in high school, but also the long forgotten years in grade school. “It’s hard to believe it’s al- most over.” “But we sure had some great times.” “Yeah, we did, didn’t we?” a Dig In.

Marcie Saulman said, “I don’t really have one favorite teacher but Mrs. Sproull and Mrs. Sibbers would probably be at the top of my list.” There are also those students who think of their favorite teacher as more than just a teacher, but as a friend too. When asked about her favorite teacher Connie Little replied, “Mrs. Struble is my favorite teacher because she is also a friend. She helps me out when I need it. When she teaches, she keeps her pat- ience with me. She helps me until I understand and she doesn’t give up on me.” The seniors have quite a varied opinion on their fav- orite teacher. Teachers do everything from teaching us MacBeth to being a friend when we need one. So the next time you decide that you can’t stand your teacher, stop and remember that teachers are human too!

Whether it’s school supplies, new clothes or weekend mo ney, there’s a desperate need to ask. Parents are constantly dishing out money without any idea of its destination. They keep giving the money until they finally just say no. Parents find a solution and say, “get yourself a job.” Although most students dread it, they know their par- ents aren’t joking — and they begin to hunt. “I think fin- ding a job was the hardest life’s a beach part, but working now is al- right,” said senior Jennifer McGlohn. Where does all the hard earned money go? Most working seniors use their money to buy new clothes or just spend the money any- where. Another place the money goes is in the bank for college. “Working takes up a lot of my time but hopefully by sav- Yearbook 12 O LOM IZ ing the money it will help save for my college,” said Erika Jewett. Senior Yvette Free- man also commented, “Work- ing is fun, but saving my money for college is hard.” Working does have it’s privileges when the paycheck is received. Being employed gives a student a feeling of re- sponsibility. It also offers better preparation for future jobs.

Senior Greg Bottom surfs competitively for the Surf Center team. He travels around the Mid- Atlantic area going to surf competitions. Surfing is not the only thing that attracts students to the freedom offered by the beach. Being a senior re- quires time to get away from academic pressures. Senior Trae Umstead said, “Virginia Beach is great all- year-round, but it’s especially nice in the summer when the beach is crawling with hot, sweaty, tanned girls.” Senior Laura Ward added, “I could not imagine a summer without the beach.” The beach offers a peaceful es- cape from everyday life.

To others, it may be a time of happiness to look back and see what a big ac- complishment you have made in your life. “T think that college is an extraordinary thing that hap- pens in a person’s life. It gives a person more responsibility and freedom but also is more serious than high school and takes a lot more work,” said senior Scott Curtis. Senior Korry Simpson has mixed feelings about going to college. “I sort of want to go away to college to experience a new life style and new sur- roundings, but I’m also sca- red that once I get there I will be totally helpless. I won't have any friends, any social life, and I will be just plain dead.” College may be a stressful and trying experience for some students. “I hope col- lege will be fun if I try not to worry about making good grades,” commented senior John Scott. Senior Jackie Windley said, “In my opinion, going to a college away from home will be a big part of growing up. I won't be depen- dent on my.parents anymore. It will also be hard to leave my friends and family behind. Although some students look foreward to going to col- lege, it could also be a sad feel- ing leaving home for the first time.

Regardless of how silly some new fads make people look, they seem to think they won't fit in unless they dress like everyone else. The price of the “hot” new items are never anything to brag about, unless you just really enjoy talking about how much money you can spend on an outfit. Maybe someday our lives won't be run by fads, but until then make sure you buy yourself a nice leather bomber jacket (unmention- able price) and a houndstooth mini-skirt (from the Limited) before they go out of style!

Your mind frantically tries to search for an excuse for being tardy. Great! You have one. But uh-oh, you used that one last week. Opening the door to your classroom you stutter, alm late because: Here are a few of the students’ responses when asked, “What’s the best ex- cuse you have ever given a teacher for being late to class?” Junior Mark Boucher said, “My car door locks froze so I couldn’t unlock my car.” Think before you answer. Paying attention in class is the essential ae of learning. Junior Bernadette Wil- son listened attentively in Mrs. Dott VanDervort’s 5th hour English class. 148 Underclassmen = BUI... Matt Mendez, also a junior, said, “I was sharing a locker with my friend and my friend was absent that day so I couldn’t get my books out of the locker.” One popular excuse among the students is that they were in Guidance. Another is that they had to do something for another teacher. Teachers are subjected to some of the most unique ex- cuses. School nurse Mrs. Ray Verser said her two personal favorites are that “a student couldn’t find his shoes so he was late to school and anoth: was late to school because sl couldn’t get out of bed.” Some common excuses to day after day are either, “T] halls were too crowded or couldn’t get my locker oper recalls Mrs. Mary Be} Leavitt.

Or hoped to find a magic lamp with a genie inside? “I wish they would stop making tan M M’s.” This was junior Steve Bellamy’s reply to the question “If you could have one wish, what would you wish for?” A few people wish to visit far-off lands. Melissa Willis wishes for a “fun-filled adventure in the islands with Charliessneense Nancy McCuistion says, “I would wish to go to Paris on a shop- ping spree with an unlimited budget.” Others wish to be successful later in life. Sophomore Crystal Griffith wants “to figure out what I want to doin STAR life, and be successful at it.” Freshman Phillip Ambrose states, “I wish I could getan A on every test or exam that I ever take.” Sophomore Tommy Diggs wishes he could “play football for the Washington Redskins.” Junior Kristi Rosengrant has a more materialistic wish. “I would wish for a white 1988 Toyota Supra with a red interior and tinted windows,” she says. Freshman Christy Quillan simply wishes for “ten more wishes.” If you had one wish, what would you wish for? A million dollars? A brand new red Fer- rari? A trip around the world?

You wake up late, as usual, and rush to school where you make a quick trip to your locker. You open and slam it shut again. What is that in there? No, it couldn’t be, could it?

Fellow junior Daniel Jones was more elaborate. To take revenge on another practical joker, he gave balloons filled with confetti to him and had someone pop them. As a re- sult, the fellow prankster was covered with the evidence. Now let’s take a look at the less fortunate ones — those who are the hunted. As most victims are, they are as help- less as a mouse in a mouse- trap. The most common of the victims are freshmen. And, of course, what better time to play pranks than lunch? A group of ruthless, cold hearted sophomores, yet friends of freshmen Tricia Wissinger, conducted her misfortune. They carefully CROWD hid the paper from a straw in Tricia’s sub and watched her, unknowingly, devour it. The outcome? “It made the food taste better,” laughed Tricia, recalling the incident.

Siblings take time out from class to talk with one another. Junior Eric Umstead and senior brother, Trae got a few words in, even with their busy schedules. Imagine Seeing You HERE “Hey! Don’t I know you from somewhere?” “Are you by any chance so and so’s little brother?” There it goes again, the un- avoidable question under- classmen hear. Often the question occurs when they enter into the territory of an older sibling. The younger siblings may seem to think it’s easier going to school with their brother or sister. They feel like they al- ways know they have someone close if they need anything. Sophomore Betsy Borders said, “It doesn’t bother me at all; sometimes it’s really good because I can get a ride back home.” One advantage to having an older brother or sister in the same school is to meet new people. “It doesn’t bother me that we’re in the same school because we have the same friends,” said junior Eric Um- stead. Junior Nathan Hogan also commented, “It’s cool going to school with my sister Eppie, but it’s hard to com- pete with her academically.” What would you say if you had a brother or sister in the same class as you? Well, it happens all the time, siblings together for academics. Junior Sherri Scott said, “We have two classes the same, and if I’m absent I can always get my homework from John.” Siblings may get discoura- ged trying to follow in the footsteps of the older. Sopho- more Michelle Iacobucci said, “Tt’s nice having Mark here so I can borrow money, but it’s hard following in the shadow of his grades.” Throughout the advan- tages and disadvantages, the family situation does not end at home. School is the place where siblings have a chance to prove each is different from the other. It also offers a special companionship and helping hand when needed.

For all you know, you could have written “I hate Algebra” for two pages and she would not have known the difference. However, on the one day of the semester you did not do it because the bus ran over your books, she grades it. It is that dreaded word — the infamous — HOMEWORK. Most students despise homework, whether it’s look- ing up vocabulary words, ten pages of math, or studying for that Spanish exam. At the mere sound of the word, homework, most will cringe, shrivel up, and crawl under a rock, not to be seen until 9:00 p.m. or so. They are known as the procrastinators. Freshman Carey Lyon is no different. “I go to sleep when I get home and usually put my homework off until late at night when I do it on my bed- room floor,” she claims. An- other freshman, Tricia Wissinger says, “I study under my bed.” And then there are the ulti- mate procrastinators. Junior Eric Rohlfs is a prime ex- ample of this student. He says, “I just don’t do my hom- DONE ework.” What a guy! What a philosophy! There are, however, a few students who do actually attempt their homework, soon after that freeing bell of 1:55 p.m. rings. Junior Mel- issa Willis can relate to this, “Usually when I get home, I grab a bite to eat, sit down, and start my homework. I tend to have a few hours worth, at least two each night, so I like to get it done early, hoping I'll have some time to watch television and spend some time with my family and friends. Of course I have been known to stay up until the wee hours of the morning finishing papers and such.” Freshman Mike Kirkman re- counts his study habits saying, “I study in the garage by my car.” As everyone knows, life will go on, homework or no homework. School is merely a passing phase. Homework is, perhaps, one of the greatest unpleasanties associated with school, but we students will survive as our predecessors have. For now just smile when your teacher cackles, grows horns, sprouts a tail, and glares at you with fiery eyes, and hands you your assign- ment ona pitch fork. It helps!

Physical fitness has become very important to some students. Since the outbreak of this obsession with keeping in shape, many students have joined fitness centers. Junior Christy Cissa said, “I work at its not a leisure health club, Ayes Hunter Worthan and Neil Gray found that playing football required ' to keep im shape. Although a great deal of exercise and sweat. Hampton Roads Health and Fitness Center. When I’m not working I enjoy working out with the equipment.” Some people do their own kind of exercises, without having to go to a fitness cen- ter. Junior Sherri Scott said, “T usually work out at home. I have my own work out tapes, so I can do them whenever I want to.” There are many different ways to work out. One way is by doing aerobics. “I always try to do aerobics because I see my mom practically dying trying to get slim from where she never exercised when she was young,” said freshman Dori Holt. Another way to get exercise is by jogging or running. “I do not always have time to go toa fitness center. Most of the time I just try to go jogging,” said junior Darlene Johnson. Twenty jumping jacks, ten push-ups, and fifty sit-ups a day and you will be on your way to becoming physically fit. Underclassmen 161 Away from it all. Everyone needs a way to relax.

Dreams can be triggered by motions that you have. For xample, if you saw a horror movie you might have hor- rible dreams for many nights afterwards. “After watching Halloween IT I had this dream that a psychopathic killer was after me outside in the woods. No matter where I ran, or how far I got ahead of him he would always find me, and just when he was about to kill me I woke up,” said sopho- more Brian Parker. Other dreams are just silly fantasies that really don't make any sense. Junior Julie Laske remembers, “I dreamt I was in a bowl of jello moving around and I couldn't get out.” Some dreams are about fa- mous people. “I had a dream that Darlene Johnson, Julie Laske and I went on a trip to New York with Ronald Reagan,” said junior Dani Bellis. Richard Thompson ex- plained his weirdest dream. “I was just walking through this open field, when all of a sudden I fell through this well. There I bumped into Robert Smith of The Cure who kept telling me about how he teased his hair, I said so what, he slapped me, so I killed him.

Sopho- more Tommy Rew recalled such a dream. “I had a dream that I was in the World Series and when I woke up I told my mom that I won the World Series for us.” No matter how real they may seem, all great dreams must come to an end. You have to wake up to face the “real world.” Underclassmen 165 166 Underclassmen Don’t You Hate it WHEN Everyone has them. They seem to follow you around.

Another common pet peeve is “having to steal chairs at lunch,” replied sophomore Jenni Bowden. Sophomore Ryan Butler said his pet peeve is “groups of people cutting in the lunch lines.” A common pet peeve experienced by many new students is the fact it can be hard to be accepted when you're new. Pet peeves seem to be a common part of life of high school students. They’re everywhere. The only thing you can do is accept them and try to make the best out of every situation. Pet peeves will never go away. Party Time. Tired of the repetitious school lunch, students celebrate in their own way.

However, you may be sitting behind the desk as a corporate executive of Wall Street rolling the money in. You may be able to afford a different colored limousine for each day of the week. You could own a few yachts, and belong to an elite country club. Freshman Phillip Ambrose declared, “Ten years from now, I plan to bea millionaire, owner of an en- gineering firm, and driver of a Lamborghini Coutach.” Do you see yourself in these categories ten years from now? Or do you have your own goals you want to achieve? Ten years from now may seem to be along way off, but is it really? | Underclassmen 169 | J vailable administrators are there You see them everywhere. It appears as though they slip from the shadows, and are there at every turn. The admini- strators are acommon sight.

As you casually glance out your window, you see them among a scurry- ing of your fellow classmates, keeping a watchful eye over all. Senior Ed Davis says, “As I arrive at school in the morn- ing, the first thing I see is an administra- tor. They are usually standing on the sidewalk, and are practically patrolling the parking lot.” There you are...standing in the lunch line. You see someone cut in line ahead of you, and almost instantaneously you see a hand reach out and snatch that per- son away. Senior Alice Ann Carmines ex- plains, “I feel that since I am a senior and I have the privilege of getting out of class What is the best excuse you have ever heard for incomplete homework? “when a student said he dropped it in the driveway and then ran over it.” — Mrs. Peggy Garner “when a student claimed he had surgery the day before but could not show any proof of stitches.” — Mr. Craige Stallings “when a student claimed he had to sandbag his yard when there wasn't even a flood.” — Mrs. Marie Struble 170 Faculty early, that no underclassman should cut in line in front of me. I truly appreciate how they step in during times of need.” Senior Jenny Bryant voices the feel- ings of many students when she says, “All of our administrators are wonderful people. They are always there, and are willing to help in absolutely any way pos- sible. I feel very comfortable talking te each of them, and many others feel the same.” Who is that in the monk costume?

No one could get in or out.” — Mrs. Dot Little The salad bar is not only for students.Mrs. Debbe Goddin was dressed as a cheerleader for spirit week as she passed through the salad line. “while we were in Florida on a band trip we were rooming next door to a pregnant woman who went into labor.” — Mr. Tim Smith 172 Faculty : : As you walk into the hall, you yell, “Have a nice afternoon,” to your sixth period teacher, and she replies,“Ha! I'll be here for a while.” For most teachers, school does not end when the bell rings at 1:54. Many of them are involved in extra curricular ac- tivities such as Forensics, Debate, Tidewater Challenge, spring trips, coaching and many more. These ac- tivities keep most teachers burning the midnight oil. Many teachers sponsor academic ac- tivities that take place after school has ended. Mrs. Sandy Katz sponsors For- ensics and also takes charge of Thesp- ians. Mr. Tom Fay is the advisor of the Tidewater Challenge team. He also helps to run the York River District Ac- ademic Challenge. Mr. Fay said, “I enjoy working with this activity because it gives an opportunity for recognition to students who may not get the chance to oonlighting an after school affair excel in other areas, and are deserving of the esteem of their peers. I enjoy seeing youngsters develop poise and self con- trol.” Ms. Helen Small said about the De- bate team, “Th is is an outstanding group to work with, representing some of the top minds at Poquoson High. It is great to see high school students learning to analyze complex topics and reason their way through a difficult situation.” These activities keep the sponsor in touch with the student’s lives. Coaches offer leadership and support to the team. Some coaches jump right in and participate with the students. Mr. Bernie Wright runs alongside many of the students during the track and cross country seasons. Mrs. Brenda Winstead not only coaches the girls’ tennis team but also teaches tennis for York County in the Fall and Spring. Mr. Bob Gemmill expresses why he likes to coach, “To see skills improved, teamwork, and overall progress is reason enough for me to coach. I think everyone likes to win!” A trip to the British Isles is not exactly an after school activity. It takes place over Spring break. Mrs. Rita Kehoe and Mrs. Sandy Katz are chaperones of this trip. Mrs. Katz feels that “each time Mrs. Kehoe and I take a group to England we have more experiences to draw from. We enjoy exposing our students to Brit- ish history, a variety of cultural ex- periences, drama and, of course, food and shopping!” A teacher’s work is not always done when the sixth hour bell rings. Extra- curricular activities are not only a part of a student’s life, but that of a teacher’s also. I think this one is right Coach. The grade on a test was the reason for the conference between Dan Jones and Mr. Bernie Wright during his fifth period history class. Faculty 173 I’m Larry, this is my brother Daryl, and this is my other brother Daryl. Mr. Dave Nelson introduced Mr. Tim Smith and Mr. John Forrest as his brothers at the pep rally on Costume day. With intense concentration. he football game kept the attention of assistant coach Mike Carges as he watched the players go through a series of plays against the York Falcons. S$ UMMer Everyone dreams of those long, hazy days of summer. Many students dream of soaking up the rays on the beach, surf- ing, or having the luxury of sleeping until one p.m. But have you ever won- dered what your teachers are doing over the summer? Many of them decide to take refresher courses in order to enhance their teach- ing ability. Others worked part time at odd jobs. “I have never been lied to more in my life,” says Mr. Bernie Wright of his job as a security guard in the Anhauser Busch Golf Classic. His job was to keep people out of restricted areas and he 174 Facult did you ever wonder? heard every excuse in the book as to why they should be allowed to go into that area. There were also those who decided to kick back and spend the time with their families at different vacationing places. The Tom and Bonnie Fay family rent- ed a penthouse condominium at Myrtle Beach and spent a week basking in the sun. A few families were more adven- turesome. The VanDervorts packed up and took off for destinations unknown. They traveled through eighteen states on their six and a half-week journey. Mr. Mark VanDervort says of their journey, “It was interesting to see and mee people from different parts of th country and see their various lifestyle: The natural beauty of the country wé very impressive.” “T really enjoyed the open spaces an’ the rugged seacoast,” comments D George Beahm on his trip with his wife t Japan. The two of them visited mar shrines and the Buddha. During the trip they spent eight weeks and plan | return in the fall to see a different se: son. There were numerous diversions f¢ the teachers this summer. Mr. Dave Ne son sums it up as, “I slept all summer: What do you think of the fashions today compared to when you were in school? “they are much more liberal. I like the way it gives people an op- portunity to express themselves in the way they dress.” — Mr. Mike Carges “1 love today’s fashions. Girls have more of a variety now than when I was younger. They can even wear pants to school!” — Mrs. Debbe Goddin “The fashions that the students are beginning to wear, such as short skirts and dresses, remind me of my high school days.” — Mrs. Joan Wynn Mr. Tim Smith — Band, Marching Band, Concert Band, Jazz Ensemble Mr. Ed Spain — Basic Tech, Drawing, Arch.

However, the people we care about most are the ones who stay. They are the ones whom we have the privilege to call our friends. There are many different kinds of friends. Most people will agree that a friend is a person who is always there through thick and thin. Senior Stacey Robbins agrees, “A friend is always there for you no matter what the situation is. They will always listen and will try and help you work out any problem that you may have.” Friends don’t necessarily have to be of the same gender as you are. There can be a platonic friendship between a guy and a girl. “I like having girls as friends. Sometimes they are a lot easier to talk to than my other friends. They can give me a girl’s point of view when I am having a problem,” says junior Kevin Weis. Friends can help break the mundane routine of school. School is often made bearable by chatting with a friend for a few moments. Junior Angela Bonner explains, “Friends make school more fun and interesting. Without my friends the incentive to go to school just isn’t there.” More often than not our lives center around our friends. Without them, where would we be? Our friends mean a gerat deal to us and we take them for granted more often than we realize. If they are a true friend, they will be a friend forever. Dressed for the Occasion. By wearing togas on Homecoming Day, sen- iors Jackie Windley and Stacey Robbins show their school spirit in Mrs. VanDervort’s sixth period class. 182 Ads Suburban Realty congratulates the 1987-88 Girls Softball Team Front to Back: Rebecca Bradshaw, Kinda Finch, Jennifer Bryant, Tonya Juhl, Jennifer Boyer, Monica Finch, Sandra Hollo- way, Tricia Wissinger, Diane Smith, Laurel Cutler, Jennifer Biggs, Lisa Rutkowski, Coach Larry Hoskins, Christina Byard, Danielle Trombetta, Marian Sykes, Lisa Jordan, Denise Busang.

Personalized license plates have become very popular in the past few years. People get them for various reasons; to show spirit, personal opinion, nick-names and various hobbies. The cost for personalized license plates is $35, ten dollors more than the regular registration fee. You must pick three choices, in case the others have already been taken. Junior Becky Bradshaw said, “I got ‘1-PITCH’ because it shows one of my hobbies and it also expresses individuality.” Senior Erin Coates has her name and month of birth dis- played on her plates. Erin commented, “I spelled my name wrong on purpose, to give it a different spelling.” While some students display hobbies and personal interests, seniors Karen and Kathy Moore have their initials on their car. “My parents gave us (Kathy and me) a car for Christmas and the plates came with the car. I guess I like having them because people recognize my car,” said Karen. Junior Dani Bellis’ dad gave her the license plates for her birthday, along with a car. “It’s a message for other drivers and it’s also a way to express yourself,” commented Dani. Personalized license plates are a fun way to express personal opinions, special interests, and certain aspects of student life. They also show a student's creativity. Whatever the reason, per- sonalized license plates are quickly becoming the thing to have.
