When I sched- ule pictures sometimes people forget to show up. Stu- dents ruin some photos by acting funny when they see the camera. There isn ' t always a lot to take pictures of, but I keep searching for action to match every piece of copy. — Gregono Grisham, Section Editor Photographer I think the hardest part for me is that nonyearbook people just don ' t realize how much time goes into pro- ducing a high guality book. Hours are spent thinking through and designing every section. Each spread takes a minimum of sixteen hours (twenty one for color) to produce — IF everything is done correctly the first time. (We had 170 spreads in this book.) Besides producing the book, we spend hours raising money, buying sup- plies, training staff, advertising, organizing, selling books, and keeping each other motivated. When the book is finished we immediately start recruiting for the next year and planning to attend summer workshops. To produce the Eyry reguires over 9000 hours. Eyry Editors have to live and breathe yearbook — it ' s no wonder that the book is always produced by a group of about six incredibly dedicated students and their advisor! — Laura Flocker, Advisor We spend so many hours together that we really become close friends. One of the things that we share is fish — the Eyry fish is the Eyry secret! — Michelle Canale Sorting through negatives Greg Grisham and Shane Reichardt search lor a picture. They were both stall photographers. Relaxing from drawing layouts Patti Espinoza takes a break from working on her section. This was her second year on the EYRY. Junior section editor Greg Grisham discusses photo assignments with advisor Laura Flocker. Both Grisham and Flocker were second year stalfers. Yearbook 41

' We work hard to follow the Scholastic Press Guidelines and to learn yearbook journalism. We have our books judged and criti- qued, then we use those critiques to help us im- prove our next book. With every book we try to outdo ourselves, which is hard to do when you have a book that wins first place awards year after year! I ' m proud to be part of a staff that produces such a great book. — Marie Loggia, Assistant Editor We came up with the theme idea while playing tennis last lune. We wanted to express the fact that even with all the problems with overcrowding our students and staff voted to keep Rubidoux as it was; we know our school is special. We started listing the specific things that are uniquely Rubidoux. We perfected our idea at a yearbook conference in Santa Cruz, July 27th — August 3rd, but it didn ' t all fall together until October. We had discussed it for five whole months! — Monajo Dahlberg, Editor-in-Chiei As copy editor, the most difficult thing is trying to think up new ideas, new ways to write about old subjects. The school has the same clubs and the same activities every year. We have to find out what there is about this years ' club that makes it special, different from last years. ' . — Leona Glass, Copy Editor Frantically working to make the color deadline are Mane Loggia and Monajo Dahlberg. This was their second year as members ol the hshmg club. Both were Eyry editors. i k poBEH WttB
