3 t as S f- .5 if mgfszl V SUMMER 'lt's the best time of the year' Summer? It,s the best time of the year! exclaimed sophomore Melany Danehy. On June 1, the last day of school, the final bell rang surrendering the students it had guided and con- trolled for 175 days. For most, summer brought three months of freedom after a long school year. Vacationing to far away places, working at summer jobs and just spending time with friends were a few things that occupied the sum- mer days. It the best summer I've ever had, said senior Natalie Harris, because I traveled to more places than ever before. While Harris traveled through Texas and Oklahoma, groups such as the band, football team and Eaglettes practiced for the upcom- ing year. Eaglette practice started Aug. 6 and lasted three weeks. Practice was a lot of fun but I missed doing other things, said Eaglette LeAnn Rushing. When students weren't practic- ing, they attended events such as the Olympic Parade on Commerce Street, Oct. 193 the Grand Prix, Ju- ly 6g or the Olympic Torch Run which passed down Preston Road. I thought there was a big display of spirit, commented Loran Liu, who attended the Olympic Parade, but I didn't really enjoy it since I was busy with my cousins. In August the excitement of a new school year started to build. Shopping sprees, the chance to drive to school and the possibilities of new romances were just a few things students looked forward to. I looked forward to being able to drive, sighed junior Lynn Cun- ningham, until I found out .. . I was grounded from my car for almost a whole year. Despite what happened to Cun- ningham, school started on a hap- pier note for most. Although many like Chance Beaube protested, Summer was too short. - Philip Needles FF. is iffllfwrs Seniors Lisa Tolbert and Laurea Dunahoe wait while friends purchase fireworks for the Fourth of July.
