f-land t)onk pagi off t was a super year for the yearbook staff. Everyone worked together very hard to make it the best record of 1986-87 they could. Early in the year the class took part in a workshop at Portland Community College. At the workshop the staff got new ideas for the book and learned how to turn the ideas into a good record of the school year. By the time deadline approached in mid-year the staff be- gan to find out that creating a yearbook can not only be fun but an awful lot of hard work and extra hours. After completing one of the deadlines the staff relaxed by eating pizza and hot tubbing at Mr. Couture’s house. » Ha itaff laid a diffpnetfc pmoKa tj. . .

Advisor Mr. Couture commented that even though he spent a lot of time “yelling at the staff to get busy” he really enjoyed working with them and will miss those not returning next year. “Everyone on the staff had a different personality and saw school life from a different point of view. This helped in picturing the year’s activities from a very broad perspective — something I feel is extremely important. No. these aren't bag ladies. Tammy Norman and Dena Womack were looking tor cans and bottles to add to the yearbook funds. This was just one ot the staffs' leisure moments as they bask in Mr. C’s hot tub.

As yearbook editors, Mary McClure and Gina Alden had a lot of extra responsibilities such as assigning layouts, making sure deadlines were met, and selecting type and design as well as doing their own pages. Trying to draw up the best layout she can, Tammy Norman put a lot of concentration into her design as Mr. Couture gives her a hand with it. 28
