Red Raider Rail' As one meandered slowly toward the horseshoe parking lot, the aroma of fantastic funnel cakes, sizzling hamburgers, and delicious fajitas filled the air, along with the cheers of successful dart throwers and jeers of prospective dunking booth dunkers. It soon became obvious that it was time for the annual fund raiser, the Red Raider Rally, and it was easy to see that for all participating organizations, MONEY MATTERS! Each October, a school wide carnival takes place in which most school clubs participate and profit. This year was no exception. One could eat fried cheese, funnel cakes, baked potatoes, smores, doughnuts, hamburgers, cherry delights, and pizza while throwing darts, shooting hoop”, getting their faces painted, watching arm wrestling, or putting friends in jail.

Back to School Bash The beginning of school is often characterized by unfamiliar faces and familiar essays on What I did this summer. But one event which always lifts everyone's spirits is the Back to School Bash. This year was no exception. On September 11, Lee students were relieved from reports for a night to watch LTV. No not MTV. LTV! Videos were performed not by rock stars and the commercials were not for Levi’s and scooters, but for Tyler merchants. This year’s successful bash was a result of many meetings and rehearsals, but it was definitely worth all the work to watch all of the kid’s enthusiastic response,” remarked Patricia Hampe.chairman. The Bash is usually PTA’s most successful fundraiser. This year they raised $2800. Not only was the bash successful for the PTA but for all who attended as well. Skits based on popular television programs such as “Dallas and Miami Vice” were enacted by students and provided a break in the action as models from various organizations on campus sported the latest athletic, casual. and formal fashions. “I’ve always loved the Back to School Bash. Ever since I was a freshman, it's been a chance to see friends I haven’t seen all summer and jam at the first soc-hop,” recalls senior Paige Prince.
