Bears, Cowboys, Indians Mark Successful Pep Week Traditions. Red Bank Regional High School is built on them. One of those traditions is that the student body shows their spirit early in the year for the fall sports teams. The week that is usually chosen for this display is the week before The Battle of Ridge Road. On September 21 students arrived at school with their treasured teddy bears in hand. The reason for bringing in their animals was PEP WEEK! The first spirit day was Teddy Bear Day. Spirited students bought in their treasured bears. Some carried their original, beat-up bears while others held their newer friends. Sophomore Annie Wu said, Teddy Bear Day was a pretty good idea because most people have a teddy bear and could participate. Tacky Tie and Hat Day also had many participants. Students gathered by lockers admiring other crazy and unusual ties. Hats were more common. Roaming the halls were spirited people with baseball caps and strange looking straw hats. Cowboy and Indian Day followed. As usual, the Indians were outnumbered by the Cowboys. Indians were spotted in hallways with feathered bands and war paint. Most students dressed as Cowboys, wearing hats, vests, and boots. Shocked to see policemen, nuns, and army lieutenants in school? Not on Uniform Day! Many faculty and students dressed up for the last crazy dav of the week. Pep Week would not have been complete without the traditional Maroon and White Day. All the fall teams wore their sports uniforms, and others wore the school's colors for the event. Did the Spirit Days and the Pep Rally really help the BUCS? Yes, the BUCS defeated Rumson-Fair Haven in the first game of the season, 14-9. FRESHMAN SUSAN Naef and Kerry McMahon wail with their teddy bears for a ride home on l eddy Bear and Blanket Day.
