Suspense, Cheers, And Excitement After two weeks of waiting and wondering, the crowd assembled in the Auditorium with excitement and suspense. As the drum roll began, 1984 Fire and Ice King. Greg Mellscmoen, paced the stage ready to reveal the 1985 Homecoming queen. Then, suddenly, cheers filled the auditorium as Beth Ashland was crowned 1985 Homecoming queen. “It is such an honor to be chosen by your peers,” said Beth. “I was nervous and excited throughout the whole week, especially the night of coronation.” Two nights later. Queen Beth and her court made their traditional ride around the football field in classy convertibles during the Homecoming game halftime. The cold night air kept the girls a little numb, but nothing could keep them from being happy and excited. Although the Spartans lost to Jefferson 21-0, the crowd was rowdy and full of spirit. Many alumni returned for the game making it a super “homecoming.” OS PARADE — Queen Beth and pngcs Darcy Smith and Andy Trudeau parade around the field in a convertible during halftime.

September 28. “The Search is Over” was the theme of the dance and Spirit Unlimited provided the music. The dance floor seemed to always be crowded. People were out boppin' to their favorite fast songs or slow dancing with their sweetheart. If not dancing on the floor, others stood in line for pictures, talking with their dates and other friends.
