Spirits rise as seniors skip ' On May 13 at approximately 8:30 a.m., 4 busses full of Seniors began their journey to Lake Jacomo for Senior Skip Day. Even though the sky was cloudy and rain was in the forecast, spirits were rising at the thought of spending a school day away from classes and just plain goofing off. When the Seniors finally arrived and everyone had fallen off the busses, Mr. Rankin said a few words and let the Seniors loose! Everyone scattered and headed to- wards the lake. People could be found swimming, fish- ing, boating, walking the trails, going to Missouri Town, or maybe the best of all, getting lost in the woods. Chefs Erickson and McLain began to cook the hambur- gers at 11:30 and seemed to be doing so until about 2:00. After everyone had eaten and recovered from their feast- ing, the thought of throwing people in the water seemed to appeal to almost everyone but the girls. The rain seemed to hold off until the last hour and then it started sprinkling. That didn't stop anyone. Senior awards were handed out and everyone seemed to be set- tling down, that is until the crowd engulfed Mr. Rankin ' and everyone swarmed to the lake to see him thrown in. The day was drawing to an end and everyone piled on the buses and headed home. Though we were late in getting back to school, everyone was late getting home because they had to wait on us, SENIORS! Mr. McLain cooks the hamburgers for hungry sen- iors. Gail Huber, Rhonda Breedlove and AngieLAkir-ls listen as Greg Cochran tells of his adventures. Mike Wood Rick Wyrick Kim Yonkman Seniod87
