Posing before their nightly evalua- tion, the cheerleaders show how to dress to go isurfinf Camps ga lore Summer wouldnit be summer without the many camps students attend. Whether youtre a cheerleader, musician or a bas- ketball player, camps are an important part of high school. Some of the camps students attended in 1985 were pompon camp, Girls and Boys State, basketball, football, volleyball and wrestling camp, music cheerleading and student council camps. Awards were won by the pompon squad at Emporia, which included two trophies and the Spirit Stick. The varsity cheer- leaders were named Grand Champions at their camp held at Drury College in Au- gust. R-P,s winning cross-country teams even sponsored a 24-hour run designed simply to have fun. Many athletic camps were held at R-P by coaches to teach their players funda- mentals and new skills of their sports. ttYou learn how good you really are during tbasketballi camp and you learn different skills? said Ed Lamkin, senior. No matter what though, if students at- tended the camps, they always learned new things about themselves and others. ttI enjoyed music camp tat CMSUi be- cause I met people that I still keep in touch with. We had a lot of fun as we learned about music? said sophomore, Mindi Martin. Whatever the specific camp taught, each individual was enriched by experiences and learned things that truly helped them to tcatch the spirit, of t85-t86. n Pompon girls smile pretty before performing.
