The week preceding the “big” Friday night game was anything but dull. The week was full of fun, enthusiasm, spirit and lots of hard work. The hard work was used in preparation for the class com¬ petitions that were judged that Friday at school. All competition decorations fol¬ lowed the theme “Cougar Reign: The Golden Revolu¬ tion.” The competitions were between the freshmen, sopho¬ mores, juniors, and seniors for decoration of the locker banks, showcases and mini parade floats. First through third places were awarded to the classes. Placing first in the locker banks was the freshman class, second place went to the spirited junior class and placing third were the sophomores. The next event was the showcases. Placing first in this activity were the juniors, second place was awarded to the sopho¬ mores and last but never least, the seniors placed third in this competition. The last activity being judged was the class float competition. In this event the sophomore class took first place, the juniors had a solid second and the third place went to the fresh¬ men. There were five dress up days to show the true Cougar spirit. To start off these days, Monday one could find people wearing everything from or¬ ange and green to checks and stripes. Of course it was “tacky day” and the student body and faculty did their best. Tuesday, “dress to im¬ press” was the idea and the student body went all out for this. Wednesday was western day.
