Having all of your friends there, sharing that same bond, made the night even the more worth while, said Stephanie Kimball. As the day grew longer, the nerves of the Senior Class members grew shorter. Final preparations were being made with the utmost of care with thoughts of the evening's events in mind. Tuxedos and flow- ers had been ordered and picked up, dresses were pressed, hair was fixed, nails were manicured, and make-up was applied, all done to perfection for assurance of having the time of our lives .

By: Gini Kimball There is a time in every high school senioris life when he or she thinks, This is it - l've finally made it! On Sunday, May 29, 1988, 620 members of the twenty- seventh graduating class of Rich- land High felt that same feeling. From the moment caps and gowns were delivered and announcements arrived, the graduation buzz was in the air. The feeling that a section of your life was coming to an end was the uniting factor among us all. However, when Sunday actually came and everyone arrived: rela- tives, friends and graduating sen- iors, we were ready to put that one foot forward and take another big leap toward adulthood. Listening Design by Heidi Lltley At the beginning of the graduation pro- gram, Laura Lewis led the class during the National Anthem.

Then, when at last you walked across the stage you thought, This is the endf' No, it was not. lt was really the beginning of the rest of your life - new dreams, new goals, new friends. Most of all, it was a time to begin anew and to live for the future, for that was our destiny.
