Darkness lay upon the land when first hour began and no one slept. As the faithful students raised themselves from their slumber, they learned to ap- preciate Edison and the light bulb. They learned to appreciate what the term ‘graveyard shift’ real- ly meant. As the months passed, they also learned to devise ways to catch up on their sleep during first hour, and usually by second hour they were ready to go. By the end of third hour, these selfless in- dividuals were ready for a break, but alas — they were forced to consume a ‘piteous snack’ and go back to the books in less than 15 minutes. Yet they survived and at noon they showed great magnanimity and gave up their precious building to benefit the little children who came from noon to six. In spite of these difficulties, the students had a successful year. Double shifting is no fairy tale. 2 3 Socializing becoming an endangered species The previously exciting social life of Sandpoint High School students is currently at a standstill. The time that students previously used for gossip, eating, just talking or “socializing” has been “put on the burner.” We now have more important ac- tivities ruling our spare time. Even the cheerleaders found it harder to rouse students during early morning pep assemblies and for games. However, the students at SHS have found time and activities enough to keep their social lives afloat in this mad, mad, mad world. 4 ■ r Freshmen lose their very own building High school to Junior High to Ninth Grade Center, now gone This year, boards grace the windows of the condemned Ninth Grade Center. No longer will freshmen rush to Dub’s at lunch, run to the annex across an ice-coated cement walk or attempt to sneak out of classes across creaky wooden floors. Now only kindergarten children use the center’s annex. j 6 Who could forget... Remember those few aspects of student life that always seem to come back and haunt a person? In grade school there was the dreaded school buses. Who could forget the uncomfortable bouncy rides on seats where your knees were in your chin, and the heater never worked so you shook as well as bounced to your destination. Then you graduated to the Siver Eagle. It was reputed to provide a comfortable ride at maximum cruising speed — in reclining seats. Players could get comfortable as they snuggl- ed up in blankets and listened to music as they traveled. The Silver Eagle’s seats were more comfortable to sleep in when you rode and the individual lighting allowed passengers to be able to read or study without disturbing those who wished to sleep. Whether the Silver Eagle actually was that comfor- table is a matter of opinion. Of course no one will ever forget the beach. It provided free entertainment for the Sandpoint teens. Whether it was meeting people, breaking the 15 MPH speed limit, or just cruising through, drivers always could find something to do at the Sandpoint City Beach. And watching out for the cops was always top priority! ► This year’s senior class officers were Amy Bet- tinger, Secretary Treasurer; Jim Duel!, President; and Mandy Nelson, Vice President. They are preten- ding to be having a good time in front of Mandy’s car, when in actuality they really want to go somewhere warm. Who could forget our 1986 Junior Miss?! Joelle Huguenin represented Sandpoint very nicely at the state competition. She is definitely an outstanding senior. Split shifting? No sweat! The preeminence of the Class of 1987 was not affected by the dreaded double shifting. In fact, the most graduating seniors with a 4.0 in a single year in SHS history had been three but this year the Class of 87 boasts five. The Class of 87 was a quiet class. It ex- erted a calm leadership that earned the respect of students and teachers alike. The differences between the social groups were not as defined as in recent years. Generally, the class was distinguished by an intellectual and emotional maturity. The 87’s will always remember Mrs. Ren- dall’s phobias, Mrs. Love’s Animal Farm, Mr. Aunan’s BIG PICTURE, Mr. Lassen’s happy medium (but we’ll talk about that a little later), Mr. Check and Balance Iverson, Mr. Gehring’s gimmicks, Mr. Millers Napolean complex, and others. The members of the Class of 1987 will always remember their high school years with pride. As they lead their successful careers, they will look back at these years as the building blocks of their lives. The “children” of yesterday will be the leaders of tomorrow. They will use keys of the past to open doors of the future. The Royalty! These are the 1986 Homecoming Finalists with the queen Carol Peterson. The king. Dean Plaster, is in the football locker room at the time. 9 CHRISTOPHER ANDREW ANDERSON Aim: To aim my sights high but never lose sight of the ground.

For so long we have looked forward to this moment when we could say “We’re out for good!” Who would have thought that we would actually miss these days spent studying for tests, frantically copying a friend’s homework that was due five minutes ago, but most of all and most importantly time with close friends. We spent six hours a day, five days a week, four weeks a month, nine months a year for twelve years receiving an education. We spent this time working together, side by side, learning each other’s faults and outstanding qualities, quirks and pleasures, and learning to sense each other’s moods and feelings. Our senior year has been the conclusion of our time together. We celebrated with a great year. There were some rather large stumbling blocks, including the first year of double shifting and the resignation of our class president. It was assumed that rising at 5:30 a.m. to go to school at 6:30 and getting out at noon would create a gap in the closeness of the class. On the contrary, our class became closer than anyone thought possible. Also, even though it was difficult when our president resigned, I was proud to become the new president of our il- lustrious class. After overcoming these hurdles, everything fell in- to place. Our Senior Prom turn- ed out to be a beautiful, memorable evening full of grace, pomp, and elegance. When the end finally came, after we walked across the stage to receive our diplomas, we tried to smile bravely through our tears, but underneath with aching hearts and fears of an unknown future, we lamented with heavy hearts. Never again would we gaze out a classroom window at the beautiful blankets of snow covering the quad; never again would we hear Mr. Wilund reminding us that it would be bad for our health to roam the halls during class; never again would we stumble sleepily into the coaches’ office after a long bus ride and call our parents to come and get us; never again would we dread try- ing to get out of the school park- ing lot without a scratch; never again would we frantically dial the snow line hoping school had been cancelled only to hear the annoying buzz of a busy signal. These are only preserved in our deepest, dearest memories. As I go on in my life and become involved with furthering my education, a career and a family, I know that I will always keep a pearl of memory in my heart of my first twelve years. Twelve years of laughter, tears, trials, and triumphs with the people I will always hold dear to me. Thanks everyone — I love you all! Very sincerely yours, Mandy Nelson 33 My year at senior class advisor This simple note is being written to the senior class to explain the reason behind these newly discovered gray hairs. My career as a senior class advisor has been highlighted by numerous events such as something simple as receiving mail. 1 now get tons of junk mail with the official title, John Nitzy, Senior Class Advisor. I feel the title should be changed to Senior Class “Go-Pher.” Mr. Nitzy “willyou, could you, did you remember to, etc.” Boy, 1 never realized I was so popular. Speaking of popular, when I acquired this position I had to deal with our Senior Class President who was far from popular, Jim what’s his name. Our new president presented ideas that had a lot more to do with the planet earth. Some other things I’d like to remember about the Senior Class of 1987 are: Carol Holm commitment to the Powder Puff Football game. (I was an official and we still couldn’t win.) The flying kung-fu kick by Kelli Keough in the losing effort against the sophomores with one minute to play. Mandy Nelson’s massive physical structure as defensive tackle for the senior football team. Brian Rowe who coaches like a cross between Tom Landry and Richard Geer. The HOUR I spent organizing the decoration for the prom because I thought it would be a zoo with crazy seniors running all over. Ten showed' up to decorate. The Disc Jockey for Salt and Pepper whom 1 thought would provide motivational type messages to the Senior Class. We paid them: $568.00 and he didn’t say a word. How well 15 senior girls and two mothers get along when it comes to decorating a gym. Carol Bettinger and Betsy Nelson who saved my butt. The help received by the senior class boys in decorating the prom. But most of all I’d like to thank Mandy for jerk-' ing the microphone out of my hand during my big chance to introduce the prom queen and king. I guess I’d better remember who the president is- next time. Never trust a Secretary-Treasurer. In closing, I’d like to take a moment to sincerely thank all the work that Mandy and Amy put into making my job as Senior Class Advisor not as bad of job as I’ve made it sound. I really do appreciate it!!! Sincerely, Mr. Nitzy 34 A “It’s another one of those days.” Missy Elzey contemplates life at SHS. ► A Move it over about two millimeters.” Mike Alt makes his contributions to homecoming an exact art. ▲ “Higher Kevin, higher!

The first class to have the new graduation re- quirements, they must have a C average in core classes to graduate. The size of their class also poses some problems. With 250 students, many classes at the beginning of the year were “stan- ding room only.” Incidentally, size is one of their characteristics prevalent throughout their elemen- tary and junior high years. For example, when they were fifth graders, another teacher had to be hired to accomodate the large number of students. Yet, with size comes diversity and ex- cellence. With more students to select from, sports benefited as did the class’s academic stan- ding. The basketball and football teams had a strong junior core and the average G.P.A. of the class was high. Junior Class president Cliff Anderson has high hopes for his class. “I hope that everyone graduates. With the new C average policy, we are having a problem. At this point, 75 out of 250 won’t graduate. 1 would like that number to decrease. Also, I would like to have enough money for a nice prom and yearbook section. Most of all, I hope we can stay united and have fun!” Other class officers hoped for a better finan- cial situation and more class unity. Will their hopes be realized? Only time will tell.

The Turkey Dinner Raffle was a success as was the dance and the class of 1989 was on its way to wealth. The sophomores were a diverse class. Fairly large, they boasted intellectuals and sports- oriented people. For instance, most of the season the varsity football squad sported a sophomore quarterback for most of the season and they also had eight members of the squad from their class. Their football legacy carried over from last year’s virtually undefeated freshman team. Sophomore class president Aaron Lish has high hopes for his class over the next two years. “I want to see our class unified. I hope that the dif- ferences between the social groups can be worked out.

Administration at work Teaching tired students takes talent Jim Wilund Principal Students were not the only ones who were sub- jected to the dread double shifting. Their mentors, the staff of SHS, had the chore of attempting to teach groggy students the 3 R’s when they themselves wanted to be home learning the 3 Z’s. Throughout the year they gave us valuable, useful knowledge and a few comical lines we’ll never forget. Mr. Woodrow Aunan, affectionately known as “Mr. Ion,” taught us the mindboggling fact that “everything is related to everything.” Mr. Richard Gehring’s method of madness led us through droves of cows, blobs, and gimmicks. All of these eventually became “food for thought.” Mr. “Gandhi” Iverson added a real “ding, ding” to government when he wasn’t busy checking and balancing us. Reverend Lassen was “incidentally” teaching us the value of positive thinking and a “happy medium.” “Oh my gosh, Mr. William D. Albertson, we have to dissect a what?!” Mrs. Marianne Love’s class of Friends, Romans, and Countrymen sometimes resembles a zoo, or better yet, an Animal Farm. But no year was finer than 1984 with Newspeak and Big Brother (or Big Sister). Mr. Willard Adams’ opening statement will forever haunt us — “Let’s commence to begin to start!” Redundancy and senility go hand in hand. We remember Mr. “Magic” Marker guiding us through our nation’s history and showing us that history does repeat itself — at least five times a day! Bonjour! Mon professeur s’apelle Miss Mary Baskett. Elle parle francais et elle est professeur nouveau cette annee. Sa classe est tres interressant!! Always keep in mind that if you ever happen to stroll past the Cedar Post Room and hear strange noises emitting — not-to-worry — it’s only Mr. Bob Hamilton growling at delinquent staff members spending their class time enjoying the hallowed halls of SHS (literally). Staying in class is difficult not only for students, but for teachers also. Mrs. Joy O’donnell for exam- ple, can provide some extremely valid excuses for leaving class at any given time. “I have to change my shoes,” was an award winner. Will we ever know what she really did??? We will remember our teachers at SHS as we make our way through time and will always be grateful to them for their endless patience, great understanding, and steady perserverance through some of our most difficult years.

Extracurricular activities were dominated by student organizations, or clubs. From skiing to mathematics to team spirit, the clubs at SHS ad- dressed many different interests. Many students were active in clubs, the average size being 30 members. This was a definite change from last year’s apathetic attitude toward the extracurricular activities offered by SHS. This is especially notable considering that the meeting time was cut in half by double shifting. Overall, the clubs were a smashing success and gave many students something to occupy their time. Jerry Banks’ outward enthusiasm is evident as ASB Presi- dent Carol Peterson suggests the amendment of the Stu- dent Council Constitution. “I can’t think of anything else I’d rather be doing,” contemplates Jerry. 55 ▲ The SHS Pep Club.

The vending machine was a big money maker for Student Council. 56 Various activities dominate student government Student Council started the 1986-87 school with a bang! With merely two weeks to prepare the best Homecoming ever, Student Council pull- ed together and followed through with all the pomp and royalty of past Homecoming and added a grandeur unequaled before. Things were done so well that the fooball team captured the first Homecoming victory in eight years. With such a successful beginning, the year could only get better. Because of the shortened snack period, Student Council decided to add a vending machine to the school. The machine had a variety of chips, candy bars and snacks. Over the year it did surprisingly well, earning Student Council $200-300 per month. With the council earning more than the school district, new students flocked to SHS and SC was ready for them with a modified game show — “The New Student Game.” Members were given new students to welcome to SHS and the game ended with a pizza party given in their (new students’) honor. In all, there were 30-40 new students introduced. The year that started out with a bang ended up going out with as much style as it had going in. Through hard work, strong leadership, student and faculty support, and innovative ideas, student council made the 1986-87 school year one that will not be forgotten by those who lived it. 57 A “Ooohhh . . . Real good idea!” ASB President Carol Peter- son listens to the creative ideas of faithful member sophomore Jerry Banks. 58 Expansion, a vital part of enthusiastic Math Club Idle talk such as “pass the programmable scientific calculator” and “up your equation” was not commonly heard among the ranks of Math Club. Instead, members spent their time taking home awards. At an annual science and math competition in Boise, Sandpoint took best team score for SHS’s division, and several individuals won chemistry awards, including Senior Robby Hub- bard who won a $1,000 scholarship to BSU. Other events occuring on the Boise trip were a visit to the capitol and a night of rented VCR movies. The club also traveled to “math meets” at NIC and the LDS church here in Sandpoint. “I’m pleased to see the increased interest in math and willingness to do something,” com- mented President Andy Raiha. ▼ “What’s so funny?” Math Club Officers.

Leohono makes the grade with large membership This year the honor society, Leohono, was the largest club in the high school, consisting of 40 members. The club’s first activity was in late November when the members gathered cedar boughs for the wreaths which adorned the Bonner Mall at Christmas. In early spring, along with new life came the new sophomores to make the club “young again.” There were 57 sophomores honored at a reception at Connie’s Motor Inn con- ference room. This provided new members with an opportunity to get acquainted with old members, and was a necessary fund raiser, the first of the year. All in all, the year provided a challenging time for President Laura Thurston and Vice President E. D. Nelson, and Secretary Susan Townsend. “With such a short meeting time, it was difficult to arrange many activities, but I think that the year was a successful one and all who were a part of club were helpful and should be proud of their achievements,” commented Laura. T If it hadn't been for the efforts of these capable young women, Leohono would have been at a loss. Standing are President Laura Thurston and Secretary Susan Townsend; kneeling are Vice President E.

Lilting notes from a flute pierce the air. Then, a boisterous clarinet joins the flute to form a poetic duo. As they weave their harmonious song, an ex- uberant trumpet bursts in along with the steady heartbeat of a drum and the sound is complete in all its grandeur. It wasn’t difficult to experience this infusion of music at SHS this past year. The SHS band con- sisted of 38 talented individuals. They were very active, having six concerts over the year and over 25 total performances. These 38 students made up the pep band, stage band, and concert band. Some of the highlights of the year included an exchange with a Vancouver band, a large group competition at NIC where they competed with other bands in our district, and marching in the Creston Apple Blossom Festival Parade in British Columbia. The highest honor they received was an invitation to represent Idaho at the Philadelphia Bicentennial Celebration. Each state chooses one band to represent them at this event. Unfortunately, they were unable to attend. Band director Tom Walton is in his second year at SHS. “I’ve been very happy with the coopera- tion and enthusiasm they’ve shown this year, and they’ve proven to be a great bunch of students to work with. The quality of the band has improved immensely, and I look forward to the prospects of bigger and even better bands.” The SHS Concert Band.

From a mere seven members, it has grown to an entourage of 36 and they were far from inactive. They year included two opera workshops, an ex- change with a Vancouver choir, several concerts including a district workshop at NIC and singing with the Ricks College Concert Choir in the spr- ing. The year also included a visit from a well- known jazz recording artist who gave the choir some pointers on singing. Variety was also a major factor to the success of the choir. The numbers performed went from vocal jazz to accapella. According to choir direc- tor Judy Heraper, who is directing the SHS choir for the first time, the tenor and bass sections were exceptional. The soprano and alto sections were also outstanding with one soprano, Shannon Den- ning, chosen for the All-Northwest Choir in which select students from six states performed in Portland. ▼ Singer teaching Shannon a lesson or two?

Spirit shines for all From flowers for the cross-country and football teams to a big cake for the volleyball team, pep club proved to be the athletes’ biggest support group. They provided moral support for the students participating in athletics and gave them an incentive to do their best with something to look forward to. They knew their efforts were not futile. Pep Club’s year began as soon as school did. In the same predicament as Student Council, pep club had two weeks to prepare for one of the big- gest and first dances of the year: Homecoming. Fortunately, it turned out to be a success and they were over their first hurdle. Over the year, their treasury increased to a large amount. This money went toward gifts for the athletic teams, and spending money for out-of- town trips. “I wish we could have done more, but with breaks as short as they were, it was difficult to do many things,” commented President Jen- nifer Johnson.

Changes bring out the best ▼ “I hope Rae-Lynn approves ..Senior Jeanne Rust works hard on detail in her layouts. Another year, another missed deadline, or so Mr. H. thought, but to the pleasant surprise of all concerned, the first deadline was made and with extra pages to show for it! There were some changes this year in Monticola including an IBM personal computer and new staff posi- tions. The computer made copywriting func- tions and finances much easier to deal with, and the new staff positions increased the efficiency of assembling the yearbook. Other changes were made in the processing of the yearbook. From different layout styles and more pictures to longer copy and better captions, these features made the 1986-87 Monticola a success. Also, without the hard work and dedication of the entire staff the year; book would not have had nearly the quality that it does. According to the Editor Rae-Lynn Clark, the yearbook wouldn’t have been as suc- cessful as it was without her staff’s devotion to finish it. ▲ “From the screen to the book” copy in the making.” The computer provid- ed help in all aspects of the yearbook, from finances to page layouts. ▲ “What is this?” Mr. Hamilton did it again!

They were considerably smaller than in past years due to double shifting. The early schedule also hindered the number of activities the drill team was able to be in. But they still had time to participate in football and basketball halftimes and their traditional Homecoming performance. Under the direction of captain Carrie Moore and co-captains Jennifer Johnson and Cin- namon Morrow, the team had an exchange with the Bonners Ferry drill team and was instrumental in promoting school spirit and supporting athletics.

The highlight of the year was a trip to Portland, Oregon for a national journalism conference. A group of 13 students and advisor Bob Hamilton attended the conference over spring break and came back with more awards than any other school in the state of Idaho — a total of five.

To make it all the more memorable and noteworthy, those who competed received top ratings statewide. FHA had more fund raisers than most clubs over the course of the year, including a car wash and a candle and jewelry sale. The money earned from these went toward curtains for the Home Ec. room and the rest for the club’s trip to FHA State. There were a few people who were very in- strumental to the club as they were in positions of leadership — the officers: President Chrissie Vandenberg, vice-president Sandra Gilson, secretary Angela Peine, and degrees chairman Lee Ann Rammler. Angela, along with her duties as secretary, was voted outstanding FHA student of the year. She and Brenda Bair were both District I officers, vice president and recreation director respectively. “It was a lot of fun and I’ll miss it next year,” commented Brenda.

Listening to the other guy was a must over the year. 72 To Sandpoint High School, Mime Masque this year was something special. With the double shift we were left without a stage to work on. But the members of the club decided that we wanted to go on. So we sent a delegation to the Bonner Mall, and they granted us the use of one of the stalls. Then with the help of the Mime Masque adviser, LeRoy Anderson, and $1,000 worth of lumber donated from the LP Mill, we built both stage and seating. This was just in time for our new year pro- duction of the comedy “George Who?” Now with final production of the year, a comedy din- ner theater, “Nurse Jane Goes to Hawaii,” our stage and seating will be finished except for painting and carpeting that will be done this summer. As this is my third and final year in the high school theater, I would like everyone to know that acting is more than just a memorization of lines and movements. It takes per- sonality, endurance, and most of all, patience. Some of my best memories in high school have come from work- ing the stage and acting. Whether it was working on a set at 1:30 in the morning with Mr. Anderson or arguing with my friend and supervising director, Jeanne Bunker, as to how a scene should run, or just acting on the stage, I have had a great deal of special experiences. To my friends and associates, I would like to thank you for these times and experiences, and especially our advisor, LeRoy Anderson, for the time, effort, and friendship that you gave me.

Contrary to what some may think, ski club didn’t begin and end with the ski season. From October through April, the engaged in various fund raising activities from a gas raffle to their second annual Air Band Dance, and a follow-up to it as the finalists put their lipsync skills to the test. With all the money they earned, it was time for a ski trip and 25 members trundled off to Big Mountain in Whitefish, Montana for a weekend of snow fun in the sun! To alleviate the cost of a motel, the club stayed in a gym at a local jr. high school. They skied all day Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Ski Club had a great attraction for the foreign exchange students, with five participating. Accor- ding to seniors Chisuko Kameda from Japan and Erika Bechuate from Brazil, one thing they had wanted to do before they left Sandpoint was to go skiing. Although there were no officers, adviser Chris Lassen and seniors Kathy Brown and Susan Townsend were instrumental in taking care of the responsibilities of the club. A “Madona, Madona” — Oh no, it’s just Jackie Petersen! Ski Club members sponsored an airband dance for one of their fund raisers. 74 Keeping up foreign communciations Foreign language club members speak and eat like foreigners Talking in foreign languages? Not enough for the Foreign Language Club. Try eating foreign foods. This April the club members attended a statewide Foreign Language Fair at Coeur d’Alene, where they watched skits with dialogue in other languages, participated in language com- prehension testing and sampled the succulent foreign foods from Germany, Spain, France, and other foreign countries. Under the leadership of president Heidi Rynearson and advisers Mrs. Louisa Ford and Mary Baskett, the club had a good year with fund raiser in November selling im- ported chocolate Advent calenders, with the money going into the scholarship fund. At the end of the year the club gave out two scholarships of $150 to Angie Harris, a two-year Spanish stu- dent, and Laura Thurston, a three-year French student. Overall, they had a “marvilloso” year and hope to accomplish even more next year. ▲ Seriora de Ford gives Lee Ann Rammbler some tips on foreign dialogue.

Everyone has his own special talent, and clubs provide a program to display them. Belonging in a group where others have the same type of interests allows the group to learn and expand their interests. These clubs range from mathematics to skiing. But, every club gives you a place to reveal hidden talents, explore new kinds of activities, and gain friendships. With the inconvenience of double shifting, many of Sandpoint High’s clubs almost didn’t make it. But the interested members put forth the effort into their respected clubs to make them pro- ductive. The clubs as a whole at SHS got a lot ac- complished and added fun for the students. ▲ “Two bits — four bits — six bits — a dollar — SHS Ponderettes stand up and holler!” The drill team shows their spirit while performing a routine during a football game at Memorial Field. ▲ “And the crowd goes wild!” Dancing to Madonna, these girls won the airband contest sponsored by Ski Club.

T David Hughes Sandpoint athletes honored Kramer comes back “You can if you will,” was the guest speaker’s message to the fall athletes at the Bulldog Bench Sports Banquet. Jerry Kramer, former Green Bay linebacker under Vince Lombardi and member of the NFL Hall of Fame, spoke at his Alma Mater in SHS gym. The banquet was the largest so far and four sports were honored: Volleyball, Cross- Country, Girls’ Soccer, and Football. The volleyball seniors who received the special awards were Jeanne Rust the recipient of the Alii Nui Award, Kelli Keough the recipient of the Academic Award, Tiffany Dowling the recipient of the Coaches’ Award, and Most Valuable Player Award was a tie between team captains Jackie Peterson and Rae-Lynn Clark. Cross-Country Award of Excellence was given to senior Laura Thurston and junior Brad Griffin. Brad also received Most Valuable Player for the boys’ team. Laura received Most Valuable Player for the girls, and Most Inspirational overall. Junior Brian Griffin received Most Improved and sophomore Aaron Lish received Most Dedicated. Girls’ Soccer team captain, senior Carrie Young, was awarded Most Valuable Player. The entire team received Most Improved and freshman Molly Glahe received Most Inspirational. The seniors on the football team received the special awards, with Doug Marks receiving both the Academic Award and the Jerry Kramer Award (presented by Kramer himself). Bryan Holinka received the team’s Most Inspirational Award, and James Malcolm received Most Outstanding Back. Scott Neer was given the Coaches’ Award. The drill team and cheerleaders were also recognized. Both squads lettered for the first time in SHS history. The choir performed four numbers and the band also played. ‘Don’t give up’ Pittsburgh Steeler David Hughes related some sound advice to the athletes of SHS at the winter sports banquet. “Never give up hope” was his philosophy towards life in general. Many athletes were awarded for their performances during the winter sports. Wrestling coach Mike McNulty honored many of his grapplers for their efforts. Junior Brad Griffin received the MVP award; seniors Dean Plaster and Nick Cripe received the most inspirational award; Plaster also shared the captain’s award with Senior Mike Crossingham; sophomore Matt McNulty won a special team award. The only award for the girls’ basketball team was received by Senior Carrie Young. She was named the MVP by the team. Boys’ basketball coach Duane Ward honored some of his players for their efforts. Senior Kevin Keenan received the captain’s award. Junior Cliff Anderson was named the MVP for the season. The spring sports banquet was kept short and sweet, with desert for the main dish. The tracksters that were honored were juniors Darrin Gleiser and Raelin Temblin who shared the most inspirational award. Junior J. P. Schell was singl- ed out for his efforts in soccer by being named MVP. Another junior named MVP was Dave Thornton for his great season in golf. Kelli Keough was named golf’s most improved. 79 Young but impressive! The 1987 boys’ soccer team was young and talented this year. Nine of the twelve players will be returning for a strong season next year. Although many are returning, the seniors that were on this year’s team were crucial to the team’s success. Dirk Feisel, a foreign exchange student from Germany, Sean Rorke and Steven Schell. Steven, a four-year starter for the team, holds the school record for the most goals scored throughout a high school career with 45. During his first three seasons, Steven booted in 35 goals, out of a team total of 78. He also led the team scorers this year, along with his brother, J.P., both accumulating ten. Other leading scorers were Jeff Deshon with nine, Brian McCrum with eight, Rorke with seven, and Jay VanDen Berg with six. Another record set this year was by junior Jeff Deshon in the last game of the season. Jeff made four goals, breaking the record for number of goals per game previously held by Steven. This finished the season on a good note and left the Bulldogs with a 6-6-4 final record. This earned them a fourth place in the Inland Empire League. The future looks bright for the SHS boys’ soccer team. ▼ Junior Jeff Deshon demonstrates his hand-eye, or should it be foot-eye coordination in a game against Pullman. 80 .• -i'.. ■. .••« ? i.-i;- i. jk£ - .-• . • .• - c. -v' '.

However, this win was costly to the team as they lost second-year starter, senior quarterback Dean Plaster to a broken foot. Sophomore quarterback Jay VanDenBerg and junior Cliff Anderson picked up where Dean left off. The quarterbacks racked up some impressive numbers with fifty-six completions, eleven touchdowns, and only five interceptions. However, Sandpoint slumped early, losing their next two games to Wallace and West Valley, br- inging their record down to 1-2. The Homecoming game against the Kellogg Wildcats marked the first home game of the season. But the team morale was low and the coach decided that it was time for a pep talk and who better to give it than former coaching great, Cotton Barlow. “It was the most inspirational talk I ever heard a coach give, and I think that it turn- ed our season around,” said senior center Bryan Holinka. After the pre-game pep talk, the Bulldogs promptly routed the Wildcats 44-16. Sandpoint picked up momentum after Homecoming and hammered East Valley 2T0, one week later. The Bulldogs were now 3-2 and headed into the biggest and most important game of the season. If Sandpoint beat the Moscow Bears, it would mean a trip to the state playoffs. It was a defensive struggle in the first half of play, and the Bears led at halftime 3-0. The third and fourth quarters saw more of the same. It was looking grim with 2:39 left on the clock. The Bulldogs had eighty yards to gain for a touchdown. Then, with six seconds remaining, junior quarterback Cliff Anderson tossed a hope and prayer to junior wide receiver Chad Childers and Sandpoint won 6-3. The Bulldogs momentum carried them through to a 10-10 tie with the Lewiston Bengals. Also, Orofino dared enter Bulldog territory for an an- nual non-league game. They came out hard and upset the Bulldogs 20-7 early in the game, but a late charge by Sandpoint won the game 21-20. The no-win Post Falls Trojans were unlucky enough to be standing in Sandpoint’s way to the state playoffs and the Bulldogs made quick work of them, hammering their way to a 43-0 victory to remain undefeated at home. In the last game before the state playoffs, Sandpoint was 6-2-1. They played Coeur d’Alene for the Inland Empire League Championship, and unfortunately size dominated over strength and the Bulldogs lost on Halloween night 35-3, ending their season 6-3-1. Post Season and state playoffs were new to the Bulldogs and it was evident when Mountain Home had an 8-3 lead at halftime. With the help of Mountain Home running back Maury Toy, titled the “best back in the state of Idaho,” their team brought the Bulldog season to a close with a 26-3 victory. For an outstanding year at their respective posi- tions, senior center Bryan Holinka, junior tight end Todd Brannigan, junior wide receiving Chad Childears, and junior kicker David Thornton all received post season honors and were selected by the North Idaho Sportswriters to the North Idaho All-Stars Team. ▲ The next athlete for the front of the Wheaties cereal box!

We put the years in And got success out; Moving up that ladder, Pushed on by encouraging shouts. If not for this Where would we be; For we were taught To deal with reality. Giving our all to achieve Our greatest goals; We searched our hearts, And searched our souls. To find that special Place inside; To always live our Lives with pride. ▼ Mmmmmm .. .

The dynasty continues Way to go, five in a row Although the Sandpoint Volleyball team had some major changes to adjust to this year, they continued their dynasty by capturing the state championship for the fifth year in a row. The ma- jor changes were the double shifting, a new head coach, and the loss of Heather Daarstad, a key middle hitter. The most difficult adjustment to make was to the new coach. However, after a few compromises between the players and coach Shel- ly Siegfried, the team was unified once again. Even though Coach Siegfried was new, her team had ten veteran players, three of which are returning starters. Tiffany Dowling, Jackie Peter- son, and Rae Lynn Clark were given recognition for their outstanding abilities by being named to the All North Idaho A-l first team and to the All- State team. Rae-Lynn was also named the North Idaho high school volleyball player of the year. The other seniors on the team included Joelle Huguenin, Jeanne Rust, Teneka Morley, Carol Holm, and Kelli Keough. After playing eight seasons together, these individuals have many memories that they will treasure throughout their lives. Some were happy, some were sad, and a few were painful. They included the sand relay, crawl-out, coach-on-one, party in 203, the “Bitch” relay, the Philly boys, and the line dance. In addition to their years of experience, these individuals were consistent, most importantly in keeping their state title as the “Best volleyball team in the entire state of Idaho.” Jeanne Rust, making volleyball look easy.

Practices began in late August, and the second year varsity team didn’t play their first game until September 25. The practices were vigorous and tough, but coach Frank Delamarter made sure that a bit of fun was included in the midst of hard work. Playing a game of skill, endurance, and ag- gressiveness, this young and growing kick club at- tacked such teams as East Valley, West Valley, Coeur d’Alene, and Pullman. The team’s two wins were over the Pullman squad. Although the strikers fell short of their expecta- tions, as far as the record goes, they worked together until the very end and didn’t once give up their hard-fought effort. Returning to the squad were seven seniors, Carrie Young, Cheri Wohlaib, Lynis Farrand, Shawn Behimer, Missy Elzey, Diane Holmes, and Mandy Nelson, Coach Delamarter felt that the kickers had a good chance in their league due to the experience of the older girls. Setting out to im- prove last year’s record, the lady Bulldogs finish- ed with a 2-6 record over all.

Cycling, hiking, swimming = cross-country Diversity kept runners' interest high Variety was the key to cross-country season this year. Workouts were probably the most diverse of any other varsity sport. The teams were able to lift weights and swim once a week at Sandpoint West Athletic Club. Bicycling and hik- ing also kept the interest level high high, and very seldom did the teams run the same route twice. The sense of ‘family’ was strong and both teams worked hard to encourage each other. A member of the Post Falls team made the comment after a meet that if there was a “Most Inspirational Team Award” the SHS cross-country teams should receive it. The veteran boys’ team showed great improve- ment over last year. Junior Brad Griffin led the team with high individual standing early in the season and went on to place fourth in regionals. Junior Brian Griffin, Brad’s twin, was a late bloomer but when he decided to go for it, there was no stopping him and he went on to take fifth in regionals. The rest of the team had a commen- dable season but did not qualify for state. The girls’ team lost six seniors from last year but gained two newcomers and had enough to constitute a team. Senior Jami Blake, the leading veteran runner, was sidelined most of the season with a leg injury. Senior Laura Thurston took the lead for SHS during the season and placed tenth in regionals to qualify for state. Junior Tammie Thurston, Laura’s sister, improved dramatically over the season to finish in the top twenty at regionals. Overall, the season was one of learning, both physical and emotional. 92 ▲ It’s a beautiful day for a stroll in the park! Jamie Blake and Tammy Thurston pace each other in a grueling meet.

They had no advisor in the beginning of the season which led to unorganiza- tion and frustration within the members. They also had problems getting to a lot of the away games, because the cheerleaders were not allow- ed to ride on the bus with some of the teams. These problems were soon solved when Shelly Siegfired, also volleyball coach, volunteered to ad- vise the cheerleaders. Soon after this, the cheerleaders began to mold to form a team. Although it isn’t the first year to have male members, this is the first time in many years in which guys were included as part of the cheerleading team. During this school year the cheerleaders turned the spirit of SHS around with exciting pep assemblies, as well as providing spirited leader- ship to the SHS student section at games. Their effort was greatly appreciated, and they have renewed some old traditions and set new ones for upcoming cheerleaders to follow. The mascot this year got a face lift. The old head was completely recovered this year by Freda Chubb. By the end of the season the job was split by a few people who wanted to take on the job. Lynette Roos enjoyed the job of mascot most of the time. rfnHi fiiht HIM.

The Sandpoint Girls’ Varsi- ty Basketball Team had only seven players, six were retur- ning seniors with plenty of playing experience. They were Rae-Lynn Clark, Tiffany Dowling, Carrie Young, Heidi Rynearson, Brenda Ingles, and Amy Bettinger. On occa- sion, a few junior varsity players were asked to suit up for the varsity games and received some good experience. Junior Colleen Pratt and sophomore Suzy Young stepped into the line-up toward the end of the season because of in- juries to other members on the team and did a “real fine job.” With the lack of players and the double-shifting, the team had problems recovering from a Friday night game to play again on Saturday night. Nonetheless, the team never gave up and their die-hard attitude was present up until the last second in the last game. The team’s final record was 10-12. The Dogs were 7-3 at home and 3-9 away. Three of their wins were against teams ranked in the top five in Idaho, Moscow, Lewiston, and Capital. As a result of a hectic schedule and not enough family time, Coach Iverson decided to resign after the 1987 season. Iverson was the girls’ varsity basketball coach for two years and coached for many years previously. Many awards were given to this year’s players. Carrie Young, Amy Bettinger, Heidi Rynearson, and Tiffany Dowling were members on the Senior All-Star West team and participated in the all-star game. Amy was also selected as a member of the North Idaho A-l all-star basketball team. The future for the basketball team looks very promising with some great athletes returning for the next year.

Because of the lack of numbers, more inex- perienced wrestlers were moved to the varsity level, including one freshmen, Greg Ponsness in the 138 lb. class, and there was also three sophomores Jerry Banks at 126 pounds, Chad Coon in the 119 lb. weight class, and Steve Miller at 132. The Griffin twins, Brian at 98 pounds and Brad at 105, were both forces in North Idaho wrestling posting a combined record of 43 wins and just 13 losses this season. Brad and Brian who were regional champions in the early weight classes, always gave us the lead in the dual meets in the eartly going,” coach McNulty said. The twins are juniors. At the 112 weight class, junior Mason Long in his first year on the varsity, posted at record of 8-11. Senior Dean Plaster, in his third year on the varsity squad, was regional champ and for the se- cond straight year went to state. He posted a 20-8 season record in the 145 weight class. Senior Dana Demers, in his first year at Sand- point High School, filled in at the 155 weight class. Senior Mike Crossingham was regional runner- up and took an 18-7 record to state, where he did better than probably even he would have imagin- ed. He finished third in his 167 weight class, best of the Bulldogs in the tournament. Rounding out the rest of the regular season var- sity team were junior Dave Velacich at 185 lbs. and senior heavyweight Nick Cripe, who was very improved over last year’s record. One big surprise was young Jim Alt who did not wrestle a varsity match until the regional meet where he placed as runner-up in his weight class and went to state. 100 A The 1986-87 Wrestling Team.

Young squad shows promise Although the Boys’ Basketball team was young, they demonstrated great maturity throughout their 13-6 regular season and their 1-2 post season play. Because of their age, they discovered early in the season that in order to be competitive, the amount of hard work, sweat, sore muscles, and dedica- tion would be demanding aspects through the season; they were definitely competitive with everyone they met on the court. • The future looks very bright for this young ball squad. They will return junior co-captain Cliff Anderson who received the Most Valuable Player award, All-State Honorable Mention, and was also named to the North Idaho All-Star team. Also selected to the team was junior Dave Thorton. Even though the team will return many promising athletes, they will also be losing their team leader, Kevin Keenan. Kevin was the starting point guard for the squad who shared the honor of team captain with Cliff. He was also presented with the Captain’s award. The other senior on the squad was rookie Jim Patterson. The Junior Varsity squad finished their season 9-11. They exhibited the winning at- titude and never seemed to give up. They were a “group of hard working young men,” said JV coach Mike Hagadone. 106 A “Hah, in your face!” Darren Gleiser goes for two.

Second year coach Dave Demers, who holds the high jump record with 6'6 , set in 1978, is looking forward to next year and his returning athletes. Their attitude was “good and it showed in their overall perfor- mance,” commented coach Demers. Two records were set this year by the thinclads. Senior Tiffany Dowling set the school record at 33'2 in the newly-instigated girls’ triple jump. The other record was set by the boys’ mile relay team at the regional tournament with a time of 3:28. This is especially notable considering that all members of the team will be returning next year: sophomore Mike Brown, juniors Len Plaster, Darrin Gleiser and Chad Childears. Another season highlight was the fact that the team sent fourteen people to state, the most since 1978. The future looks promising for the track team. 31 members lettered and 27 are returning next year. A One more lap! Sophomore David Hall races around the track.

Ill Different from the rest The 1987 varsity golf team was unique from the past years due to senior Kelli Keough who was the first girl to go to state tournament from Sandpoint High School. Other members on the girls’ squad were juniors Nixie Clark and Kara Elliot. “The girls didn’t get very many meets because there weren’t many schools that had girls’ golf teams,” said Coach Ken Beaudoin. Boys’ varsity golf team had only one senior in its cast of five; he was senior Greg Winn. Greg usually had the second best score on the team at the meets. Junior Dave Thornton, seated first on the team, was a medalist six times. Including the low score in Sandpoint’s division in the Inland Empire Golf Tournament in Spokane. Because of his golfing ability, he was awarded the MVP Award of the ’87 season. The remaining members of the varsity are: Junior Mike Pecukonis, junior John Abromeit, and sophomore Chris Lewis. The bulldogs won ten of sixteen dual matches, with five of the six losses coming at the hands of Lewiston and Coeur d’Alene who came in first and second respectively at state last year. “We don’t mind losing to those two,” said Coach Ken Beaudoin. ▲ The art of concentration down to a tee!

If a person were to peer through the weathered glass of a window at Sandpoint High School, they would pro- bably only see the drab colored classrooms, outdated facilities, and a place lacking much in the way of modern educational advantages. But we as the student body of SHS know that there is much more to our high school. One just has to be able to look beyond the drudgery and inside the life of the students here to realize that there is a spirit that is alive in each of us making these few years ones to always be remembered. The life of a student at Sandpoint High School consists of many situations that are the same day to day and many that are so off the wall that they don’t often occur more than once in a lifetime. These are the events that stand out in our minds and make the memories that we either cherish or would like to see removed on Wednes- day along with the garbage. Do any of these situations sound vaguely familiar to you? — Waking up exactly 12 minutes before the 6:40 a.m. bell with your head in the Calculus book — Making trains to get through the halls faster — Tasting a burrito for your first time before noon — Cheering on the basketball action at noon when we still had a normal lunchtime — Spending more time in the halls than in class on the average day — Losing your shoe at the Dog Beach Social Gatherings — Taking part in one of Mr. Aunan’s famous chess tournaments — Memorizing the speech “Friends, Romans, Countryman ...” and singing it to the rest of your sophomore English class — Walking into your third hour classroom second hour and being stared at by 32 seniors. — Trying to break the school record of times around the circle at the beach — Riding the Silver Eagle for the first time — Running your first whole mile in P.E. — Eating McDonaldland cooking during Spanish II Class with Senora de Ford — Leaving Chemistry class with rings around your eyes from the protective goggles — Getting out of class via the counselor’s office — Receiving notice after notice of your overdue library book which you never checked out in the first place ... in fact, you’ve never even visited the school library — Starting your month long English project 48 hours before it is to be handed in — Forging your mom’s signature on your excuse — Getting docked 5 points for writing in pen on your math test — Feeling ready to die right after warm-ups at track practice — Learning “home row” in Typing I and feeling like you have mastered typing — Calling mom from the pay phone to let her know you’re at Connie’s having fries and you’ll be home soon — Seeing the looks on your parents’ faces as they pick you up after you got towed away from Pogue’s Party — Borrowing nickels and dimes till you have enough to buy lunch — Missing a week of school because of “mud day” — Skipping a half-day to go skiing and having school changed to only the last half-day — Taking last minute achievement tests your senior year so you can go to college — Pulling the legs off a big black grasshopper in Biology — Checking the time very ten minutes during Calculus class As you look through this list, I’m sure you can relate to many of these occurrences with a smile and think back to all the memories that make up these few years in our lives. These years are the milestones that mark a turning point on our journey towards tomorrow. And before we take the step into the future, we ponder all the times that have made our high school years the ones to remember. As you look through the following pages, some of the special moments have been captured from the events that we’ve been involved in as a student body. Hopefully, some will stand out in your mind as being extra special and as you venture out into the real world, you’ll hold on to that. You can take pride in your Alma Mater, for Sandpoint High has so much more to offer than what an outsider sees ... we have class. 115 The mighty seniors of 1987 The pressure was on the student body of SHS for Homecoming 1986. Due to football scheduling, the ex- travaganza took place a mere three weeks after school started, almost a month earlier than in previous years. Ac- tivities had to be organized, details taken care of, and plans gotten underway in such little time. This proved to be more difficult without the time during lunch and after school lost with double shifting. But the student body over- came all of these obstacles and pulled together to make Homecoming ’86 a “marvilloso” success. Homecoming this year was centered around a “Mexican Fiesta” theme and the classes battled to break a pinata first while the boisterous senior class out yelled and out decorated everyone in the other competitions. 116 Can I go forward when my heart is here?” ◄ Finalists Curt Doty and Carrie Young ► Finalists James Malcolm and Susan Townsend A Finalists Tim Lyman and Amy Bettinger ► Finalists Sean Rorke and Tiffany Dowling 117 Homecoming spirit shines through The Bulldog victory over Kellogg highlighted Homecom- ing week with a 44-16 win. This win was a tremendous ac- complishment in itself being the first Homecoming victory in eight years for the Bulldogs. High spirits dominated the Homecoming dance which brought the festivities to a close. The newly appointed King and Queen, Dean Plaster and Carol Peterson led everyone in a dance honoring the royalty. The students of Sandpoint High School took home with them the sweet taste of victory and a week full of memories from a very special Homecoming 1986.

Double shifting has given me more time to myself.” — Brenda Bair ’87 — “I like it. Working is a great oppor- tunity to meet people.” — Jennifer Johnson ’87 — “I love my job. It gave me a better understanding of what adults go through, and it helped me to meet people in the community.” — Susan Townsend ’87 — “I think that it’s beneficial to have the afternoon free for a job, but it’s difficult to have one because it’s hard to get to bed early after working all day.” 120 ▼ “This is my wonderful world of make believe!’ Dan Staton picks out a Disney film during Career Exploration at Video Magic.

Luckily, with school out at noon they could start work earlier in the day and benefit from a larger paycheck. One could find many familiar faces at ARBY’S, MCDONALD’S, SERV-A-BURGER, and PIZZA HUT. Others worked at hardware, novelty, and clothing stores. There were even some who worked at profes- sional medical offices. Average pay was minimum wage, but many soon proved their dedication to their jobs and were rewarded with raises. “A job provides good exposure to people and is a vital part of education,” commented senior Jami Blake, a swing manager at McDONALD’S. ► Um, well ... this looks good right here!” Matt Pardue demonstrates his mechanical expertise. ▼ “Personal Pan Pizza in five minutes or less — guaranteed!” Carol Lang offers the house special. “We do chicken right!” Glory Speer and Shane Wat- terud display the various chicken parts served at Ken- tucky Fried Chicken. 123 ◄ “Easy does it, slow and easy!” Kevin Harvey stocks sup- plies at The Discount Warehouse Market.

A class with some class Senior mosts ’87 From personality to looks — these are the senior “mosts.” They are the ones who over the past few years, have made noticeable impres- sions. Selections for those who best fit the categories were chosen by the senior class. These chosen seniors have added character and class during their years of attending SHS. This section recognizes those students who have really stood out during high school. The senior “mosts” demonstrate the outstanding qualities that make the class of 1987 one of the best ever to come through the doors of Sandpoint High School.

Left to right: Doug Marks, Kelli Keough, Andy Raiha, Susan Townsend, Jon Berger. It has come down to the last five who rise to the top of the class of ’87. These students have achieved remarkable grades for four enduring years through high school. Many others have been filtered out along the way from the 4.0 GPA stan- dings as the year of .1987 comes to a close. When we entered first grade, twelve years ago, graduation seemed so far away. For most of us, our grades have fluctuated from A’s to F’s. Yet there still remains those five who strove hard to attain their straight A’s year after year. As graduation is nearing, it’s time for their dedication, willingness, and abilities to pay off. Finally their hardwork will place them at the top of the graduating class of ’87. Congratulations to you five who stuck with it and put out the effort to the best that you can be — The class of ’87 com- mends you for a job well done. 127 128 Lunch food for breakfast? It is 9:11 a.m. on the first day of school and you are halfway finished with your schoolday. Hunger pains are making themselves known to you and anyone in the immediate vicinity and you are ready for a BIG breakfast! You throw your books into your locker, grab a few bucks and head down the hallway for a nice BIG breakfast. As you make your way through throngs of people, you envision steaming eggs, sunnyside up, of course, two or three strips of bacon — not sizzlean — real bacon, golden-brown hash browns, and a tall glass of ice cold O. J. to top it all off. As you enter the cafeteria, you notice many others standing in line in front of you (must be the good food). As you get closer and closer to the food, you notice something missing, the aroma of frying bacon or hash browns. You panic for a mo- ment then remember — they have to prepare it ahead of time — oh well, not quite fresh but still something to look forward to. As the a la carte tray comes into view, you see an odd assortment of . . . LUNCH FOOD??? An array of paper, greasy, oil-soaked burritos, and rows upon rows of chips, dessert, and yogurt lay in grotesque glory. What’s this?! Boy, some people have strange appetites. As you scan ahead for the BIG breakfast, all you see is cooks taking money for lunch. What? NO! IT CAN’T BE — no steaming eggs?! No thick strips of bacon?! No hash browns?! Your stomach does flip-flops at the sight of a fellow classmate taking a large bite of a squishy burrito and your taste buds scream in anguish at the thought of mustard this early. You despair — is there no escape from this lunch food horror? But wait! You see a plastic cup topped with tin foil that has something resembling orange juice inside. Well, it looks like you won’t die a lunch food death after all. Then, as you reach for the last container of processed orange drink — SWIPE! Your best friend grabs it before you have time to react. So then, you purchase a bag of Fu- nyuns, ever so carefully crush them and when your friend has her back turned, empty the crumbs onto her head.

Sandpoint High School was privileged to receive five foreign exchange students this year. They brought much more than their cultures into our school, they brought warm hearts and open minds with them. They also taught us how good international friendships can be. These five individuals will be remembered as a very special part of this year. Although they will return to their own countries, the rest of us at SHS will keep them close in our hearts.

The rest of the coaching staff put forth their efforts in various ways to make the evening a big hit.

School days, school days Sandpoint High from 6:40-12:02 T Rise and Shine From the time the sun rises until it’s time for lunch, the students at SHS complete a full school day. The daily routine of each individual varies from morning to noon, but whatever the schedule, there’s always time for a little fun. The 5-minute break between classes is filled with quick conversations, dropping off books, and scampering to the next class. The highlights of the school day, for some, comes when the ringing bell signals that it’s time for snack break. As short as the 15 minute break may be, students find time to socialize, study, and snack. With the ending of the snack break, the rest of the day seems to fly by. Throughput the school day, the halls and the gym seem to attract a large number of stray students. These students are either in the situation where they 1) don’t have a class, 2) aren’t attending their class, or 3) they are an infamous “teacher’s aid.” When the final bell rings at 12:02 p.m., there are plans to be made, books to gather, meetings to at- tend, slopes to ski, and jobs to be done. These day-to-day experiences blend together and are often forgotten, but they add up to the majority of our time spent learning the things we’ll take with us out into the “real world.” 142 (dlaii Schedule lit 6:40-7:27 2nd 7:32-8:19 3rd 8:24-9:11 ddreah 4th 9:31-10:18 5th 10:23-11:10 6th 11:15-12:02 Good old golden rule days T Double, double, toil and trouble ..Seniors Hon Walker and Jon Berger take in the intriguing details of Shakespeare s Macbeth in Mrs. Joy ODonnel’s 1st hour composition class.

These amazing machines can be found in the halls, classrooms, and even bathrooms at SHS. They have proven to remedy severe sleepiness and boredom, and also aid a good day dream. The most common type of Walkman wearer is the reknown teacher’s aid, and the study halls are fill- ed with them. However, these select few are not the only ones to take advantage of a Walkman. Many of the students bring theirs on a day to day basis and push on that “play” button every spare second. Actual playing time for a single student during a school day can be as many as three hours. And we’re only in school for five. Teachers have been known to use the device to their advan- tage . . . “Turn that Walkman on volume seven and keep your mouth shut.” All types of music are played on the Walkmans at SHS. The one thing that is common about them is the fact that they fill the school with con- tent, quiet students who are usually oblivious to their surroundings. And so the Walkman mania continues. There could be a bright future for them too. Someday they may form a union and take over the school, forcing the administration to transfer their lessons to cassettes. Or on the not so bright side, advanc- ed technology may drive them to extinction. Whatever their fate may be, the students here in 1987 are jammin’ through the school day plugged into a Walkman. ▼ “A—S—D—F—Rockin’ to the beat!” A1 Wohllaib types to the beat of his combined instruments. 144 ▼ “ZZZZZ” Sean Casey finds the even AC DC can put him to sleep on a hard morning. ▼ Vicki Webb proves to be a better office aid when she can listen to her tunes and work at the same time. 145 “OKAY” let’s shift Students of all ages participate in double-shifting In with the young and out with the old. As the second shift students file in through the front doors at SHS, the first shift drifts out the back doors. This happens every school day between 12:02 and 12:27. The system is confusing, but eventually it becomes second nature. Although, with the coming and going of students, there still remains time for some after school activities. Students find unused rooms and hold club meetings or chess games, and others finish CP or Monticola work. However, the majority of the students leave the building to hold jobs, go skiing, do homework, watch their favorite soap, or do their own thing. Not only do the students experience the transi- tion of double-shifting, but the teaching staff does too. They make room for excess desks, paper work, books, and miscellaneous stuff. Everyone tries to make double-shifting run smoothly by us- ing a little consideration for their neighbor. As the shift is made from morning to noon, the hallways boom with sound, but within twenty-five minutes, everyone goes their own direction, either out the doors or to settle down for another day’s work.

Along with the many other things double- shifting has brought comes a lot of free time. Get- ting out at noon leaves the whole afternoon to fill. This time can be used for a lot of different things and everyone here at SHS has taken full advan- tage. Outdoor recreation, studies, and school ac- tivities are some of the ways that students fill this time. And the list goes on. Watching the soaps is a favorite pastime for many, and still others have after school jobs to bring in some cash. But, however a person chooses to use his afternoon time, the fact remains that the time is there and it’s nice to be able to have it while we’re still really kids at heart. 149 SHS picks faves of the year Top Gun flies in as first choice Picture this: Tom Cruise and Molly Ringwald driving a Porsche 944, pull into the beach. They are blasting Bon Jovi while drinking Coca-Cola. Then they invite everyone to McDonald’s for shakes and fries. After the fries and shakes, Tom plays some basketball with the guys and then they take everyone partying and to see Top Gun. According to a survey of 86-87 faves, this would be the ideal plan for many at SHS. Top movies of the year included Top Gun, Stand by Me, Ferris Beuller’s Day Off, Sixteen Candles, Back to the Future, and Beverly Hills Cop. The favorite actor was Tom Cruise (of course) followed by Rob Lowe, Rambo a.k.a. Sly Stallone, humorous Heathcliff Huxtable, Bill Cosby, and Breakfast Club jock Emilio Estevez. The fave female of theatre was the fiesty, red- head from Pretty in Pink, Molly Ringwald, sophisticated, sensuous Cybill “Maddie Hayes” Shepard slipped into second, followed by the dramatic Meryl Streep, Mrs. Tommy “Motley Crue” Lee — Heather Locklear, and the schem- ing, devious Dynasty star Joan Collins. There was quite a difference of opinion when it came to music groups. Jon Bon Jovi shot into first place as the favorite musical group position. Others who topped the list included AC DC, Janet Jackson, ZZ Top, Huey Lewis, Eddie Money, David Lee Roth, and Oingo Boingo. The British bands hit it big with the Pet Shop Boys, Sting, Depeche Mode, Outfield, Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark, Billy Idol and Genesis. There was even an old group that has risen back to the spotlight with old and new songs of the surf, sun, and sandy beaches. They hit it big up here in the great white North and are none other than the Beach Boys. On a more local level, the most popular car was a Porsche, with the Ferrari Testarossa racing into a close second. Other fave modes of transporta- tion included the Lamborghini, the ever prevalent VW Bug, the bodacious BMW, the Corvette, Mercedes, a pick-up, the Fiero, Delorean, Camaro, and GTO. The most popular way to spend a weekend was partying (which needs no elaboration). Other favorite weekends included quiet times with friends, swooshing down the slopes of Schweitzer, shooting a few baskets at the gym, spending a couple of days in Spokane and last, but not least, shopping. When the weekend came to a close and it was time to get up at 5 a.m. instead of 10 a.m., the class that many SHS’ers looked forward to was English. The second fave was P.E., followed by sociology and Home Economics. Government, Espanol and shop were other well-liked subjects. The majority of extracurricular favorites were sports, with the exception of snowmobiling and motor cross. The most popular sport was basket- ball. Skiing, either on the slopes or the waves was a definite high scorer. Others included volleyball, football, soccer, running, swimming, and baseball. After all that exercise, it was time to run to McDonald’s for some chow. This was the favorite fast food franchise. Arby’s, Dicks in Spokane and Dubs were the other popular places. When it came to soft drinks, Pepsi, even with all their taste tests, could not beat good oP Coca- Cola. In fact, Coca-Cola beat their competitor two to one. Yet, Pepsi was second, followed by Diet Coke, Cherry Coke, Root Beer, Seltzer, Sprite and Minute Maid Orange. The favorite hang out was the beach. Other fave spots included the bowling alley, home, and Spokane. Clothing fell under the heading of casual this year. Most didn’t feel the need or have the time to get really dressed up. It tends to be difficult to look dashing and debonair or sophisticated at 5 a.m. Casual included Levi’s, preppy, or baggy tops and basically whatever the individual chose to wear. These were the favorite fashions and fads of the 1986-87 school year. The students were mellow, but they knew what they liked and stayed away from the surge-up-die-fast trends. 150 SHS studies in fashion from head to toe ▲ CANDI CRISTIE A SHANNON DENNING A CHAD CHILDEARS We got spirit!

HIKE!” and so went Powder- puff ’87. After three grueling practices (harder on the coaches than the players), the three teams consisted of sophomores, juniors, and seniors, were ready for the second annual SHS Powder- puff Football Game. It started out innocently enough, a harmless flag football game between a few pristine young ladies, but spectators were soon to witness a transformation. Smiles turned to sneers, words of friendly encouragement turned to threats of bodily injury, and a full-scale tackle football game ensued. The game between the sophomores and juniors was an exciting one and the sophomores established themselves as for- midable opponents by beating the juniors 8-2. Although the juniors lost, their effort was ex- tremely commendable due to the coaching of Chad Childears, Cliff Anderson, and Tom Rust. Under the direction of coaches David Hall, Greg Crettol, Eric Becker, John Bonar, Jay VanDenBerg, and Steve Miller the sophomores prepared to face last year’s champs, the seniors. Veteran coach Bryan Rowe was assisted by Brian Porter and Bryan Holinka, but the seniors were not able to pull it off, being stopped by the sophomores’ size and speed and the underclassmen went on to beat the seniors 6-0. Still, like the juniors, the senior effort was superb and coaches and players alike deserve a big con- gratulations. Last, but certainly not least, the girls who played could not have done it without the support of the men who “dared to bare it all” and donned skirts to cheer up their respective teams to victory: Seniors Jim Shelly, Kevin Keenan, Steven Schell, Darren VanHorn and Dean Plaster; Juniors Todd Brannigan, Brian McCrum, Toby Feuling and Len Plaster; Sophomores Bryan Nadeja, Joe Holmes, Chad Gulstrom, and Harvey Hernandez.

This is the time “This is the time to remember, ’cause it will not last forever . . so echoed Billy Joel’s immortal words around the gym on the evening of May 9, 1987, the night of the Senior Prom. Shimmering metallic streamers of blue, silver, and purple adorned the front of the gym in a sweeping tent suspended from the ceiling. Soft pink, deep pur- ple and dark blue crepe paper was woven over the railing to create a psuedo-ceiling generating a more intimate setting. White Victorian-style cur- tains with rich purple bows separated the dance floor from the refreshment area and blue, purple, silver, and white balloons enhanced the subtle elegance of the evening. Towards the middle of the dance, Prom royalty nominees Dean Plaster, Kevin Keenan, Sean Rorke, Jeanne Rust, Laura Thurston, and Shawn Behimer were called for- ward and Kevin and Shawn, as King and Queen, led everyone in the theme dance “This is the Time.” But none of this would have happened had it not been for a few key members of Prom Commit- tee. Senior class adviser John Nitcy, Amy Bet- tinger, Mandy Nelson, and their mothers put in close to twelve hours of decorating time, not in- cluding time beforehand, and they were not alone either. Many others put much time and effort into the Prom and it was worth every minute of time spent. Climbing up into the over a.k.a. the gym ceiling and crawling up antique ladders to hang streamers high above the gym floor will not be soon forgotten. Through all the grime and sweat, Prom ’87 ended up being one of the best ever, inspiring compliments from parents and faculty alike. Senior class adviser Chris Lassen wrote in a letter to the Cedar Post, “I would like to congratulate the Senior class on the best prom I have been part of in 13 years. A job well done! It was and always will be a “Time to Remember.” A GUYS (Sean Rorke, Cliff Anderson, Dean Plaster, Art Bistline, Len Plaster). “What has she been up to?” Laura Thurston relaxes after dinner at Beverly’s. ▼ John Bonar and Teneka Morely smile in anticipation of a night to remember.

Over $350,000 given to seniors Money, money, money — that was the key to class night ’87. With well over $350,000 given in scholarships, the collegebound seniors were off to a sound start in college financing. The list of awards was long but exceptional. Senior who were awarded $1,000 or more were Amy Bettinger, Heidi Wasecha, Angie Harris, Joelle Huguenin, Carol Cooney, Carrie Young, Heidi Rynearson, Rae-Lynn Clark, Ryan Swaby, Glory Speer, Hon Walker, Jon Berger, Jamie Blake, Doug Marks, Laura Thurston, Brian Stan- ble, and Carol Holm. The big winners of the even- ing were Andy Raiha, with a Coast Guard and Navy ROTC totaling $120,000 and Kelli Keough with $51,300 from Yale University and an $80,000 Navy ROTC.

Amidst strains of “Pomp and Cir- cumstance,” the eightieth class to graduate from Sandpoint High School stood proudly and ready to receive their diplomas. After valedictory ad- dresses, given by co-valedictorians Kelli Keough and Suzan Townsend reminiscing about the twelve years the class spent together, eager seniors proudly marched across the stage to receive their diplomas from Mr. A1 Jacobson. The other three valedictorians — Jon Berger, Doug Marks, and Andy Raiha — delivered words of wisdom to their fellow classmates: then, after a stirring rendition of the alma mater, the 173 members of the class of ’87 jubilantly, but not without a twinge of melancholy, left the hallowed halls of SHS ready to face the world — “Oh Alma Mater Sandpoint High, we pledge our loyalty!” 163 ▲ A Co-valedictory grin!

Gradnight 87’ was a smashing success. The graduates tried their luck at craps, blackjack, poker, and bingo. They tested their skill at the dart throw and ring toss. Food was not lacking either, with Papandreas keeping a continual supply of pizza at the willing fingers of hungry grads. Also there were five tables covered wih hors d ’oeurs of all kinds. The typical evening went something like this: one came to the door between nine and eleven. They received $1000.00 betting money and went to gamble. After either running out of money or getting tired of raking it in, they took what they had left and bought prizes including tapes, ap- pliances, and other useful items. When they left around three or four AM they received a grad nite 87’ mug as a momentum of their last “big bash” with the people whom they spent a decade with. 165 ◄ “The Senior Class of 1987” preparing A full house, the senior class of 1987. 173 of the happiest people at Sandpoint. “Not quite 21, Scott, better luck next time.” Scott Neer looks grim as he loses another 30 dollars during an exciting game of blackjack. ► We struggled, we laughed, we cried, we shared, we lived. Walking partners Jon Berger and Carol Holm on their final graduation march. What comes next? What a scary thought, this “real world.” For so long, teachers, parents and older friends have been saying “I’m just preparing for the real world.” Now we have come face to face with the inevitable. What a scary thought! What exactly is the “real world?” It must be many different things for many different people. For some it’s marriage and the joy of a family, for others it’s further education in a college or univer- sity either close to home or far away in another state or country, for still others it’s the future in the world of work and the security of a steady job. But for all of us, even those with stable plans, it still holds a degree of uncertainty. Who knows, one of us could become a famous physicist; one of us could find a cure for cancer, AIDS or some such disease; one of us could become a film celebrity; one of us could win the Nobel Prize; one of us could become a well-reputed figure in the world of finance and big business; one of us could become a national political figure — governor, senator, or even the President. But most impor- tantly, each one of us could become someone who is loved and whom someone else depends upon such as a mother, father or friend. As we go into the “real world,” maybe what matters most lies not in being a business tycoon or even the Presi- dent, but in loving and being loved, caring and be- ing cared for. Maybe this is more valuable to the improvement of our society than all those other things. With this in mind, we face the real world with hopes, dreams and goals to make the most of our short stay on this earth. 166 Editors note Now that the book is finished, I can look back on the year and ask myself if it was worth it. The answer is a definite “yes.” Despite the amount of time, pressure and responsibility I had to deal with all year, I was not the only one who had tough situations to handle. My staff had to deal with my moody temper tantrums and my grumpy lectures throughout the last nine months. To them I am very thankful for their help. 1 would especially like to thank Joelle, Jeanne and Laura for their dedica- tion and extra support. There are many people who kept me from go- ing insane this year by just giving me a pat on the back once in a while. I am grateful to you all. The list of thank you’s could be very long, however; 1 limited it to the few who were always there for me. — Ryan Sawby, the greatest photographer, in my opinion, did an extreme amount of work for me and 1 want you to know I appreciate it very much. — Mr. Hamilton, I know there were times when you had your doubts, but you never let them show. Your faith in me kept me going through the hardest times. Thank you for your trust. — The custodians, I’m sure they must think I live in the darkroom now. Thank you for letting me work in the school until the early hours of the morning. — My representative, Mr. Carpenter, who went above and beyond his call of duty to make sure the book would be of good quality. His effort was greatly appreciated. — Mom and Dad, I know it was rough, but at least I made it and have something to show for it instead of a white jacket with the sleeves in the back. I love you both and will always be grateful. — Finally, to the two most important people to me, Teneka and Sherri, I owe you guys a lot for sticking beside me all year. Teneka, I don’t know how we did it, but thanks for the best year of my high school career. Thanks Guys! I hope I produced a book worthy of the Class of 1987 because they deserve the best. Good luck in the future in everything you do and God Bless each one of you.
