For ultimate excitement, students enjoyed going out of town to different climates and cultures. Skiing with friends was great fun. You spent the day racing down snowpacked mountains, finding spots to jump and kick powder and challenging one another to race down a steep, mogul-filled black run. It doesn't get any better than this, said Kevin Wilson, junior. Reaching the bottom safely was an accomplishment a skier made with pride. Kurt Deniss, senior, shared this pride and excitement. Skiing in itself was exhilerating but skiing with good friends was even better. Having friends to share the excitement with made a ski trip twice as fun, Kurt said.

Shopping there was unique, unusual and sometimes outrageous! Their unique merchandise probably couldn't be found anywhere else, but nothing sold there would be too crazy, bright, or strange for West End, said Shannon McDowell. With so many specialty shops, the unexpected was always expected. When I was looking for something fun to wear, I could nil sw i .

The relaxation of Florida with my friends helped me realize that the beach could bring out the bum in anyone, said .Ianene Mitchell, senior. Right? Wrong! In Florida we didn't have to worry about being somewhere by a certain time. All we did was lay there without priorities and get a great tan, thinking life'S wonderful!, Kara Deal, senior, said.

find a hat in the hat shop at the West End that topped off any outfit, said Shannon Bentley, sophmore. Another specialty for West End was the crowds. No two people were of the same caliber and no matter what your preference. West End always had your type, said Laura Phipps, sophomore. West End was always happening, all weekend long. Without a party planned, West End proved to be the ,salma to ,:s,,,r, s,,rs,., .s r o e 1 1 1 i Without adventure, high school could get boring. Daringly delinquent were the guys who played grocery store tag at DeSoto Kroger. Causing trouble in DeSoto was a lot of fun, but something we could only get away with in high school, John Craig, junior, said. Seriously, when I could these guys be taken for anything more than silly. i Weekends were for fun and this year my fun was playing tag at Kroger and causing trouble at convenient stores, all for a laugh and a spontaneous place to be! 5.4 INTO best of friends and always togeth- er, even at football games.

Fun was what they had as they grew! l 6 WW ff' f I VV M ' , Cruising Copper Street was a common weekend experience. Many students enjoyed the intellectual stimulus. We cruised Cooper in Arlington looking for pretty, intelligent women. Of course, intelligent did come first, Sean Hickman, sophomore said. A hot spot on Cooper was Jack in the Box. Pulling into a parking lot of strangers was intimidating until we realized how friendly everyone really was, Craig Hardy, sophomore, said. These guys stopped here for more than just hamburgers. I liked to go out on weekends to meet new people and get away from the 'cows in the pasture' place of Red Oak, .Ieff Bouck, sophomore, said. For many students, Cooper Street was the place! 1 l With all the stresses of high school it was important for students to grow with less tense atmospheres now and then. The beach, the slopes or just an exciting place I to cruise were their places to go and grow. f Y , I X gl 1 . . f DETQUIFQ l l . ?i: lf1z -l, 2E3E5E5E5E5EgEgEgEgEgEgErI3igEr'-EQ,E3E5E52335E555E5555555552jgi5E523E5EgE5EgEfEf?5ZfE5ff??:'?:ifLQ5i525555
