The Difference Between Win, Lose, or Draw Is High Performance Speaking, writing, and rehearsing led to several opportunities to take a bow. Talents, sometimes unknown, were displayed through the often time dreaded assignments. Rocky Agbunag was selected as the High School representative for the Gadsden County Times involving “What a Newspaper Means to Me”. In his essay he spoke of the newspaper as a val- uable link to his country, the Philippines. His winning article was published in the Times , and he received a free subscription and a dictionary. Hard work paid off for sev- eral Juniors as they took high honors in the county. The Ex- change Club’s Patriotism Speech Contest took Jennifer Smith to the State Finals in Vero Beach. Cammie Schroeder, Tanny Santos, and Ben Lindquist competed in the County Soil and Water Con- servation Contest. Tanny went on to compete in the Area Con- test in Chipley. Ben and Cam- mie came in second and third respectively during and after- noon in which RFM was pitted against six other speakers. Newspaper Award Winner, Rocky Aubunag displays a comfortable adjustment to his newfound friends and changed environmenl. They each received a cash award along with experience. Acting talents were exposed when the Sophomores performed several One Act plays. Richard Rivera’s computer fell in love with him in “The Lovesick Com- puter”, and “The Two Lunatics” (a.k.a. Lance Johnson and Christi Eggersdorf) kept everyone chuck- ling. Several students were found in unexpected roles, but all did well. When speaking of the per- formers Mrs. Lindstrom said, “They all changed so much from when they started.” All of the re- hearsing made for fabulous shows. The Gadsden County Spelling Bee was Amanda Helms’ compe- tition. She took third place after missing the word p-u-n-c-t-u-a-1. She said, “I will never forget that word.” It may have been a hassel to complete the assignment, but the results made it worthwhile for most students. Everyone loved a chance to show off.
