EVENTS AND ORGANIZATIONS 3 fp! x it C: 43 lvl To keep the spirit going, Cheerleaders came up with creative ideas to get people involved at pep assemblies. Here two masked students are the lucky candidatesg At a pep rally, the cheerleaders expertly demonstrate their latest pyramid. T i IIIIWIINIE Illf 'UI SIDIIIT in 'S he year of '85-'86 saw an increase of spirit at Salpointe Catholic. Though always known for its ex- ceptional spirit inside the school, new op- portunities were found to make Sal- pointe's spirit known outside the school as well. For example, several courageous Sal- pointe students joined in the school's first Academic Decathlon team. Said one team member, We were all very ex- cited, because we knew we were starting a new Salpointe tradition. Some stu- dents even followed others and formed new organizations, such as SADD- Stu- dents Against Drunk Driving. David Na- gore, '86, felt that it brought a new awareness to the Salpointe community. Before, I'd never seriously thought about the hazards of drinking and driving. Oth- ers came together to support specific causes, as when raffle tickets were sold to benefit the Suicide Hotline, and at Christ- mas, when the separate homerooms came together to donate food and gifts to families in need. Enthusiasm ran so high that some homerooms held contests to see who could provide the best Christmas ever. Spirit was also evident in the whole- hearted participation of the suudents in Key Club functions such as the Blood Drive and Pennies for People, in which about a thousand dollars were sent to the hungry in Africa. Even the Band contri- buted- several of its members won awards for their musical ability. De- spite all the added energy put into com- munity spirit, none was taken from the in- school activities- in fact, if anything, it was improved. The life, energy, and en- thusiasm were all brought together and shown at the pep assemblies. Ted White, '86, and Pam Parmoon, '86, became the Homecoming King and Queen at one of the more spirited assemblies. Mike James, '86, and Theresa Mansour, '86, received the title of King and Queen of the St. Paddy's Day Court. Kim Dytko, '87, thought the idea of the new court was exciting, but if they intend to continue it I think they should make sure the King and Queen have reg- ular terms, like the Homecoming Court.'l The Poms, with their new and exciting routines, helped to make assemblies even more lively, as did the cheerleaders, who performed new cheers and pyramids. Even spirit week was a tremendous suc- cess when compared to the last few years. Many people dressed in Hawaiian clothes, wild hats, togas, or plaid to show their spirit. Exclaimed Michelle Fimbres, '86, Spirit Week was a big success! It definitely brought out the spirit in everyone and in the school. The school year of '85-'86 was a most memorable and enjoyable year for every- one- thanks to the spirit of the entire student body, both in the school and in the community. The generosity in fun- draisers and drives never seemed to stop. The pep assemblies never seemed to lose their spirit. And the students never seemed to loose their enthusiasm. DA WN K WADER
