Outbound and Inbound On November 2, 1987 Preston-Fountain was represented by four seniors on the “High School Trivia television program in Mason City, Iowa. Brad Johnson, Ben Joerg, Camron Loll, and Carl Ford, The Raiders, volunteered to be on the show after Mrs. Ann Markegard, their coach, was sent information to find school that would be will- ing to participate on the show. We were nervous about answering questions, but were excited about being on television, said Ben Joerg, member of the Raiders. The categories ranged from Science and History to Sports. The “Raiders were victorious over their opponents, Charles Ci- ty, Iowa 370-180. Preston-Fountain was delighted to host four ex- change students during the 1987-88 school year. Their names include Natalie Brill from Germany, who stayed with the Robert Benson family, Martha Guzman from Colombia, who stayed with the Waldo Marzolf family, Sami Vainiomaki from Finland who stayed with the David Hokenson family, and last but certainly not least, Susanne An- dreasen from Denmark who stayed with the Ber- nard Hurley family. All four students were members of the 1987-88 senior class. Top: Martha Guzman, Susanne Andreasen, Natalie Brill, and Sami Vainiomaki point to their homelands abroad.

Something new... As students returned to class in September, one change they noticed was that there would be no more bells to begin or dismiss class. Some approv- ed of the change and some didn't. If you happened to stroll by the Landco building and heard some choice tunes coming from within, it was probably the rockin' new band 'TOP SECRET. The band has been together for about a year and practices 2 to 3 nights a week. They have played at a junior high dance, a pool dance, and a class reunion. They hope to play a lot more in the future. We want to sound good, but mainly we are together to just have fun. said Mike Schibur- sky, member of 'TOP SECRET. The other members include Ben Joerg, Kristin Slattum, Jim Hanson, and Stuart Dyreson. Last summer Carl Ford, cyclist extraodinare, peddled furiously across the state of Michigan for seven grueling days. Carl was part of a bicycle tour that consisted of 800 other peddlers. He carried such things as a tent and a sleeping bag that were used some nights to sleep on football fields. Overall, It was a BLAST! shouted Carl. He is looking forward to this summer when he might trek across some other states, and eventually across America!

The seventh graders faced the inevitable adjustments to changing classes, responsibilities, and studying for homework and tests. But they mastered every challenge placed before them well. They were shocked when spirited classmate Barry Tienter lost an arm in a farm accident in Oc- tober, but they were pleased to hear that he was doing quite well. They did well at Homecoming activities and in C-Team sports. They were a class of upstarts. 7th Grade Class Officers (Right): Front Row — Randy Snyder, President.
