Fire Ice sparks school spirit Once again, Fire Ice helped to get rid of those winter blahs and lifted the spirits of RHS students. Junior Katy Youel commented, The pepfest was better because it got so many of the students involved. The week started off with sweats and shades day. Students came to school in a variety of sweat pants and sweat shirts. Wearing those comfortable clothes sometimes caused a bit of drowsiness in classes; but, that was no problem if students had their dark glasses! Tuesday found students seeing double during Twin Day. Students put their creativity to use in thinking up costumes, like Kathy Maresca and Vicki Snowden who dressed up as M M's. Students sported their finest on Wednesday, Dress-up Day. Seniors stood out from the crowd as they rebelled by wearing their pajamas. Thursday brought students to school in shorts and T-Shirts. During Beach Bum Day students at RHS could be found physically in classes but mentally their minds drifted to the summer, the beach, and to fun in the sun! To conclude the week, a flowing sea of red and white drifted into the gymnasium Friday for the annual pepfest. Who can forget Mr. Covart hitting his free-throw to give the faculty a win over the students in the free-throw competition? The pepfest also served as a showcase for the gymnasts, student and faculty volleyball teams, and the boys' basketball team. And of course, who could ever forget the King candidate's expressions as the received their wet surprises? This years Fire Ice week was probably the best one I've been involved in since I've been at Richfield High School! said senior Pam McLeland. CO LEFT! NO! CO RIGHT!
